Writing Names With Wedding Sparklers

Sparklers

Purchase sparklers that are 20 inches long because they burn for several minutes and will give you plenty of time to set up the shot and to write with before they burn out. You will need to know what word you are going to spell out and may use one sparkler per letter or one sparkler per word as long as you spell the word quickly.

Set Up

You will need to write with sparklers backwards in order for it to read correctly on camera. However, if you forget to do this for your sparkler pictures, you can correct it in Photoshop by flipping the image. Also, make sure to set the camera far enough back, to fit the entire word in the picture.
