Light Writing Proposal

This long exposure, and the making of footage, were shot over three nights in Raleigh, North Carolina as a proposal to Emily Kern.

The words “Emily, will you marry me?” Were spelled out in light writing. The final image is made up of approximately 800 individual 10 second exposures.

Both the Time lapse and video were shot with Canon 7Ds.

I’ve put a description of the process of up at

Total “Aw…” moment there at the end. I think the still kind of “gives it away”, but of course the magic isn’t in the plot! I hope you thoroughly enjoy. And in accordance with my New Year’s Resolution, I am reading one book a week. This week: Cosmos by Carl Sagan. A wonderful man, and a wonderful book.

Three Cheers for Creativity,

Chris
