This shoot was beyond spectacular. This thunderstorm started producing right when we were ending what was, up to that point, a pretty damned fine engagement session. But just as we were closing up shop, this thunderhead started producing amazing amounts of lightning. Here’s a nice little time-lapse to show you. Each frame is about a two second exposure. Camera was on a tripod as Jenna and Joel were instructed to do their best not to move. An off-camera studio flash with a brolly box lit the couple. They did awesome despite getting eaten alive by mosquitoes. The sequence loops once. Enjoy!
