Club photographer with a novice quantum question.

I am a club photographer and I often use a technique called dragging the shutter where I use light in two ways. I use a slow shutter speed (giving the camera a lot of time to capture whatever ambient light is available) to capture motion or momentum and a flash to “freeze” the action. The result are tact sharp images that also show motion blur. It got me thinking about how we try to observe electrons. I understand that with light it knocks electrons out of there path due to the observer effect but is there a way to record the motion of an electron at the same time as being able to “see” clearly where it is? Apologies if this doesn’t make sense of if I’m not using the right nomenclature.
