Ferocity

"Once I have a target, it doesn't get away." Lightning, Dissidia 012

This passed weekend I went down to help out HeadphonesStudios with another project for school, and it was truly an adventure! The technique she used was light painting with speed lights, so the area we needed had to be completely dark. We ended up at a beach in the middle of nowhere surrounded by crabs and shot for about two hours. Thankfully though, the rain had stopped by the time we started shooting, the wind was our only enemy during the shoot!

We had a few reference photos to choose from, and I absolutely loved how vicious Lightning looked in this particular pose. I'm so happy how it came out, it looks absolutely badass!
