No flashes, just light toys. The fire is a lighter. Here is a photo I took with Jer long ago. He's incredible!

wow, no flashes? were the light-toys so bright to give such clear portraits? for how long did the people have to freeze then? with the aperture f/8... i'm confused :)
sorry for asking such detailed questions - i'm just continuously experimenting with this stuff myself but didn't manage yet to get such clear portraits... although i've never done such still ones yet :)

Yup, they are. Just a matter of timing/speed. Gotta do the face lighting quickly. Zip zip. Fire is especially hard because it's so bright and not directional. It can easily make everything it shines on blurry.

There's nothing magical about f8, but that's what I've used for light painting going back over a decade.

i'll definitely try your method sometime soon ;)
