Halloween photo

Get camera viewfinder straight in front of the model and props. Make sure the
sun is behind you. The best time to shoot is before 10am and after 4pm when the
sun is not so harsh. There you are a great Halloween picture. Buy a large
pumpkin and some hay. Set the hay in your yard where you can see tree
scenery behind where your model will be sitting on the hay bale. Position the
pumpkin on the ground at the left or right side of the hay bale. Take a couple of
shots.
There are plenty of subjects around to photograph at Halloween ranging from the traditional jack-o-lantern through to people in costume, to trick or treat ‘treats’ etc. It’s a time of color, emotion and lots of interesting subjects.


 The keys to capturing them are not that different from the normal keys to good composition in photography. As you photograph Halloween this year keep in mind some of the basics of good digital photography. I’ve selected the following tutorials that we’ve written before that should be helpful in your Halloween photography.
