The Taser Photoshoot: Portraits Of People’s Faces When Hit With A Stun Gun

1

Be honest. How many of you have ever wanted to tase your significant other? Maybe they’ve annoyed you that day, you wanted to get a reaction out of them or perhaps they just downright deserved a few jolts of electricity for some reason or another.

Patrick Hall, one of the founders of Fstoppers, gathered 100 volunteers willing to allow a friend or significant other shoot them with a stun gun while he captured their reactions in slow motion on film and on camera. Shooting with a Nikon D810 and a Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8, Patrick was able to shoot a bit wider as “having people jumping around in the frame can make it difficult to compose the perfect shot.”
