Halloween Special Sets - Double Feature
Something wicked this way comes…
I’m once again transforming my studio into a deliciously dark horror playground!
For anyone who did my last 2 Halloween shoots, this year we are doing things differently. This year I will have a total of 4 different sets PLUS the option for spooky outdoor shoots.
I want to focus on more unique photoshoots for each person this year - playing with creative lighting and creating cinematic photos and even short videos.
From 15-30 August I will be running the Blood Pool as the main set & the Vampire Boudoir as the second set. Sketches, moodboards & info below.
From 31 August - 20 September, the Graveyard will be the main set, alongside the Haunted Parlour. Sketches, moodboards & info below.
Spooky outdoor shoots can be added to any of the Halloween photoshoots - the outdoor location is behind my home studio. Moodboards & sample images of the outdoor area below.
All bookings for Halloween shoots this year will be private bookings direct through me, so if you are still interested - please get in touch to discuss dates!
If you do both rounds of photoshoots, you can choose between a $50 discount or 2 extra edits.
All edits will be completed by Halloween.
I. Blood Pool
From 15-30 August / One of the most requested Halloween sets. The Blood Pool is essentially a smaller, minimalist version of the Black Lagoon set, combined with the messy fun of the Kill Room. Blood isn’t compulsory - if you’d prefer to go for a swamp witch or evil siren vibe, you definitely can!
II. Vampire Boudoir
From 15-30 August / A bit of a remix on the Memento Mori set, with black & red layered curtains, candelabras, animal skulls, bones, and a clawfoot bathtub to unleash your inner Countess Bathory and get bloody. The coffin prop can also be used in this set. Vampire & occult vibes.
III. Graveyard
From 31 August - 20 September / Tied as the most requested Halloween set. Similar vibes to the Haunted Woods, but darker. Expect a LOT of fog. The gravestone is removeable, turning the Graveyard set into a dark field - the perfect setting for a folk horror nightmare or cryptid sighting. The plain black background allows for projecting a full moon onto the set.
IV. Haunted Parlour
From 31 August - 20 September / The Haunted Parlour will feature sheer curtains, cobwebs & candelabras - a simple but versatile set, the perfect setting for a ghost story or gothic horror. Expect lots of layers of gauzy fabric, obscured faces, moody lighting, and the feeling that you’re not alone in the house.
V. Outdoor
Step outside behind my house for some spooky shots outside. Moody edits for witchy, dark fae & cryptid vibes. You can use your photoshoot time for the outdoor photos, or add on extra time for the outdoor photos.
Packages + Add-ons
All shoot packages allow use of all setups. You decide how you want to use your time. You can choose to spend part of your time outdoors, or add on the outdoor shoot.
Edits will include background clean-up and adjustments to lighting & colours, but no skin smoothing/retouching.* This is to speed up the editing process to ensure that everyone receives their edits in time for Halloween.
PAYMENT PLANS AVAILABLE. You will be required to pay a deposit when booking, but please get in touch after to organise a payment plan to suit you.
Studio is in Ardeer, VIC - address on booking.
Shoot slots are spaced to allow time before & after your shoot for changeover, getting ready & tidying up sets.
For Child’s Play & Scream packages: If you plan on getting very messy in any set, please select the “Shower & Clean up” add-on when booking, for extra time to clean up.
* I can remove blemishes like pimples & bruises, but will not be doing my usual skin smoothing. Full skin retouching available on request for an additional $10 per image.
