I’ve had this idea for years: Kim, standing between two rock formations, with reflections in water and light wrapping softly around her using my Light Painting Square. Not in a studio, not controlled. Out in nature, in a space that feels raw, quiet, and alive.
That night, the conditions aligned. A high tide turned the rocks into a stage, mirroring our light perfectly. The formations curved around Kim, almost like the landscape itself was part of the composition. In just six seconds — lit entirely by hand — we made the image I’ve been chasing in my mind for so long.
We stayed longer, exploring more compositions in the dark. There’s something sacred about creating art outside at night. The world narrows. The senses shift. Light becomes your only way to see — and the act of making something becomes a form of discovery.
🎥 I turned this experience into a short video on YouTube:
It finally happened — it includes behind-the-scenes, story details, and the full image reveal.
🖼️ And I’ve added the 3 final high-resolution images from that shoot to my blog post here:

🟨 The tool I used for this video is a Light-painting Square (Sugar and RoseBronze). You’ll find both squares on our little online store: https://lightpainting.store/products/squares
Thanks for following along on this quiet little journey. I hope the result feels as calm and charged as it felt to be there 💕
And my husband asks me WHY do I need to go back to a certain area or location... Hello, John!!
