Halloween a night of dreams, aspirations and fun.

Halloween is such a magical time of year for both adults and children.  It is an opportunity for people to step outside their skin and be someone or something else for a night.  On many levels it reveals our inner worlds and as children it allows our aspirations and dreams to come to life.  I hoped you photographed this event and captured a moment before it ran away. 

Over the past several years, we began offering slide show presentations at wedding receptions.  Our presentations are an assortment of photographs from our engagement sessions, wedding day images, and family snap shots.  Set to music, it is a wonderful way to begin to share family memories and for loved ones who have passed away to be present at your wedding. 

The photos that evoke the biggest reactions during our presentations are Halloween photos.  I do believe that these photos show another side of our brides and grooms.  Over time, those images show who they idolized and fantasized being.  You can say that inside each one of us is a fairy princess or superhero but Halloween allows us to embody that for a night.  That is what makes these photos special. 

I truly encourage you to photograph your child when they get dressed up and pretend.  Document the evolution of his/her imagination.  Don’t miss this opportunities to photograph your child’s growth. Now is the time to keep those moments from slipping away.
