Getting ready for Halloween? Yea me too!

Today we will deal with just one specific area to make your Halloween photos the best ever! That's right How to photograph those little ghosts and goblins that come to your door! I have 5 tips for you that will make your Halloween "At The Door" photos the best ever!
1. Be fast and be ready! Those little monsters that knock on your door come and go mighty quickly, and why not Halloween is one time a year and there is lots of haunting to do, and treats to be gotten! Have your camera close by, make sure your batteries are fresh?, Make sure your memory is your card ready to go? Your camera set on automatic is the best choice till you become really comfortable with how your camera works. Make sure your flash is fully charged and ready to go to? This is a good time to definitely use your flash!
2. Shoot, shoot, shoot! Don't be shy or scared, jump right in there and capture your little masked guests as they first answer the door. Capture that expression as you hand them their treat! If possible get a couple shots of them and their friends. Have them take there mask off so you have a shot of them you can recognize! Tell the silly ones they will have to make silly faces, or the scary ones to show you their most scary face, before they get there treats and then "click" you have another great photo!
3. Put yourself in the photo! Have one of your Halloween helpers take the photo from behind your ghost or goblins and you can be included in the photo handing out treats too!
4. Try different angles! Don't always shoot from eye level! Hold the camera higher and shoot down, lower and shoot up!
5. Get in the Halloween spirit too! Dress up yourself!
If you use these 5 Tips, then your photos of those monsters who knock on your door will be the best ever! I know ill be using them!
