Light Photography comes from using a long shutter speed that allows the camera to block out everything apart from a single source, this can be a torch or RGB flashlight.

The Second step which also is fairly important is to use a tripod because the camera needs to be as still as possible, any form of shake or movement at a long exposure slow shutter speed is visible so to reduce this as best as possible a tripod should be used.

The First Step and most important step is the camera settings, as a photography you should lower your shutter speed to the slowest and longest exposure possible or to be able to control manually how long the shutter stays open to do this, the camera's shutter speed should be set to BULB mode. As for the Aperture the F stop should be between F/8 - F/10
The Third Step would be to blackout the room keeping all the light out so that when the camera captures the single light there is no distractions within the image, for example flares from the sun on windows.
