Halloween Photography Tips And Composition Guides
In the previous post, I shared some Halloween photography tips, mostly about Exposure modes. This article is all about composition. All photography composition rules are flexible, which means you can break them according to your photography style and personal taste. On Halloween, your composition should emphasize the theme. So these Halloween Photography Tips give you some clear guidelines that you can modify them to your style.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Halloween Photography Tips in Composition” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23aa3300|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Now that you are getting ready for another fun Halloween night, let’s take a moment to explore these simple solutions for taking better pictures. [/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”20018″ img_size=”600×400″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”slideInRight” title=”Lighting and Composition”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Get Closer” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23aa3300|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Like other types of photography, for the best result, get closer to your subjects. Especially if you use a Wide Angle Lens (you can find more information about Lenses in our previous articles Lens Focal Length, Choosing Correct Focal Length, and Deciphering Lens Codes), getting closer to the subject makes distortion that can be an attractive effect. [/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”19898″ img_size=”600×400″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”slideInRight” title=”Lens Focal Length”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Change the Height” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23aa3300|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Avoid shooting at eye level. Try shooting at a lower or higher level. If you use a wide-angle lens, the higher or lower level creates some deformities (such as big size head or very long arms or legs), which adds to the Halloween theme.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”20011″ img_size=”600×400″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”slideInRight” title=”Find a Creative Angle”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Using a Flashlight” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23aa3300|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Every photographer should carry a Flashlight as part of the camera gear, especially on Halloween night. Use the flashlight to light up part of your subject. Use different directions for the flashlight, especially under the face, to add a more dramatic effect. Shooting at slow shutter speed allows you to capture the light effect that you create with your flashlight.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”20012″ img_size=”600×400″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”slideInRight” title=”Using a Flashlight”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Take pictures with and without the masks” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23aa3300|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Part of Halloween tradition is wearing costumes. When you take photos of your kids and friends in their costumes, take photos with and without the mask. It is one of the most ignored yet important Halloween photography tips. The reason is when someone looks at those photos; it makes it easy for them to know who was in that cute rabbit costume![/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”20013″ img_size=”600×400″ add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”slideInRight” title=”Mask On and Off”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Try Monotone image” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35|text_align:left|color:%23aa3300|line_height:1″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css_animation=”fadeIn”][vc_column_text]Part of the Halloween fun is creating vintage looks. Change some of the photos to Black and White or Sepia tones. I really like strong coloured tones in some of the Halloween pictures. You can make these changes in post-processing or the camera’s settings; you can apply these effects while taking photos.
That’s all for now. Stay safe and have a wonderful time with your friends and family this Halloween. That is all for now. As always, we love to hear from you. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for Free tutorials and tips.
