Patrick Rochons 

Patrick Rochons was born in Ireland and was born in 1976. His artwork was called "Light paintings" and he started this in 1992but declared himself as a full time light painter in 1997. Rochons is also know for visionary light portraits and produces some beautiful work.
The light painting of his has a good effect which gives the audience a "WOW" look. These photos look realistic without and exaggeration. The different types of light that is shown makes the photo look bright and colourful which makes you want to look at the photo again. Rochons does not have a particular theme, his imagination is unique and he uses photos of different things such as, body parts, faces, body; with clothing on and without clothing, for example.

The types of editing that has been shown in this photo is in the top left one the first photo of the man looks like it is a long shot that has been cut off half way. The photo looks like he has a mask on his face and the bright orange effect makes the photo look more effective especially, the red Laser pen that has been used. This may represent that men are powerful. The naked picture of the women may represent women being uncomfortable of there body parts. Rochon's has two meaning for his photos which can be represented negatively or positively. This photo is also a medium shot which cuts off her legs. The multi-colour on the women has a wonderful effect because its not just one colour. There is light shining only on the mans face in the first photos and light all over the women's body. However, the other photo with the two faces are close up shots which are side views of their faces. There is a side light shining on the girls face and a central light shining on the boys face. The photos are arranged beside each other.

The contrast of the photo has a very bright light and because the he has a black background the contrast shows more which makes the photo look exciting. It also has different types of tone lighting shown for example, in the second photo of the man there are some thin lines which get bigger as they go up to his face and on his neck the lights are quite big. Rochons photos inspired me to know how to use this different light because of the outcome it comes out with such as, the colour and contrast. This is also good for my light project.
The photo that have been taken has been planned and i can see this because when i experimented photos of my own the person has to stay still and the shutter speed had to be on for a while at least ten seconds which means the person posing had to stay still for a while. My outcome also came out with colours that were effective such as, light blue.
