So all I have to do is change my shutter speed to say, 30secconds, draw in the air with the light, and gtfo of the picture? Sounds simple

Slow sync flash photography

Or

Long exposure shots with a short burst of light from a lamp at the end.

Or

Combining images via layers and changing the blending mode of the top layer to 'screen' in Photoshop. Which will essentially leave the lightest parts visible.

Turning this:

Flash followed by 15 to 30 second exposure.
At least, that`s how I always do it. Set the camera to flash first, and then do the movements. Unless you`re really great at timing things, a flash at the end will look crappy. You might still be in a weird pose or something. It`s best to do the flash first, and use it as the signal to start drawing.
