Free Halloween Portraits
Hey, neighbors! Ed's here, a professional photographer living in our Wild Acres community, continuing my annual Shootoween tradition! My thinking is the same: instead of candies, why not give our “trick-or-treaters” a trick—something I love doing for my community—a few quick portraits? They will be free, too!
When you come this Halloween, I’ll spend a few moments with you and/or your kids, pose creatively, snap some shots, and see you off. I’ll share a gallery where you can download your free Halloween portraits in high resolution the following week.
I will need to identify your images afterward and contact you. During the shoot, I'll ask you to fill out a form on my computer with the following required information:
- full name;
- email address;
- time of your shoot;
- brief description of subjects (say, "two boys wearing...")
Since I am not charging for this fun free Halloween portraits project, I'd like to ask for your permission to share your photos (including children) on this page, social media like our Wild Acres Facebook group, and maybe my blog. If you object, please note it on the form.

Go past the main house entrance on the left, step down to the ground, and walk to the back entrance.
The glass door facing the lake downhill is your portal to art and hugs. :) See you there!
As last time, the portraits will be taken indoors, so the group size will be limited to about 4-5 people.
The event is for Wild Acres residents.
Each group will get professional quality digital images, guaranteed. However, unlike the passport type of portraits, their feel will vary greatly, depending on the subjects' comfort, character, mood, and time available. Some get cooler results, some don't cooperate as much. Keep in mind that these are not full-fledged photo sessions. If you crave those, we can schedule it on a separate day.
Some of you are familiar with my work. If you aren't, here's my family photography portfolio.
