IoleographyTM is an original technique developed by Iole Alessandrini, who combined her name "Iole" with "photography" and/or “holography” to describe her innovative approach to creating Laser Plane photographs. Laser Plane photography, entails positioning a Laser Plane between the subjects and the camera, capturing their movements as they intersect with the plane.
