A method of capturing a photographic image using a system comprising at least one camera configured to capture long exposure images of one or more photographic subjects; at least one processor; memory; a surface onto which one or more photographic subjects are placed; a movable display containing at least two vertical columns of pixels configured to travel along a path, wherein the said movable display provides illumination onto one or more photographic subjects visible within the field of view of at least one camera configured for long exposure photography, and the said movable display, as said movable display travels along said path, creates one or more digital light paintings visible to the said at least one camera configured to capture long exposure images of one or more photographic subjects; and a mechanical means for movement of the said movable display, the method comprising the steps of:
a. selecting an image to be displayed on the said movable display containing at least two vertical columns of pixels;
b. placing one or more photographic subjects on the said surface onto which one or more photographic subjects are placed;
c. positioning the said camera configured to capture long exposure images for capturing a long exposure image;
d. adjusting the said camera configured to capture long exposure images of one or more photographic subjects to bring the said one or more photographic subjects on the said surface on which one or more photographic subjects are placed into focus;
e. beginning capture of the long exposure;
f. using the said movable display containing at least two vertical columns of pixels to provide illumination onto said one or more photographic subjects visible within the field of view of said camera.
g. using the said movable display containing at least two vertical columns of pixels, as said movable display travels along said path, to create one or more digital light paintings at least partially visible to said camera.
