Default Halloween Party Shots

Forgetting everything I know about photography (probably had something to do with the multiple bottles of cinnamon whiskey by the time the party was over) I wandered our 1st annual halloween party this year taking flash enabled mugshots of guests. Here are some that turned out ok.

I edited these in Lightroom 3, and they looked good. I only looked over the exports afterward though and I may have to redo lots of them, they turned out more grainy than I thought they had. (The ones I didn't intend to be grainy anyways).

Thanks for looking.


The table, with the treats, lanterns, skulls and candles. Mmmmm....good Halloween food.


Close up of our skull decorations - B&W.


My girls in costume before the adult part of the party. Little red riding hood and a Princess (Princess Anne maybe?)


My friend Emille dressed as death. Gets my vote for best costume pic. Yes, I went a little overboard with the vignette and film grain, but I liked how it worked out.

Nice shots! I agree, "Death" is kind of creepy! Nice effects though.
