Often during a wedding reception I use long exposures to convey emotion in my wedding photos, especially at night and with sparklers. During their exit after their wedding at Capitol Park Welcome Center in downtown Baton Rouge, Angela and Galen ran through the crowd of people and at the end of their run, I had them stop where two guests encircled them with a heart-shaped drawing using lit sparklers. The 1.5 second exposure (I used “Bulb” shutter setting) worked perfectly. Tip: don’t get drunk people to try this…it likely won’t work.
