The last day of October is about knocking on doors in exchange for candy — and for spending&nbsp;<a href="https://chatbooks.com/blog/best-online-parenting-classes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">quality time</a>&nbsp;together. And one of the best parts about the holiday is putting on a costume, mask or ensemble that allows to you become someone else — bonus points if your group goes in theme! Which is why there's no Halloween without&nbsp;<a href="https://chatbooks.com/app/extras?actionUri=chatbooks:%2F%2Fcreateexplainer%3Fproduct%3D6&amp;_branch_match_id=746417397515270463&amp;modal=product_explainer_custom_prints" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">Halloween photos</a><a href="https://chatbooks.com/app/extras?actionUri=chatbooks:%2F%2Fcreateexplainer%3Fproduct%3D6&amp;_branch_match_id=746417397515270463&amp;modal=product_explainer_custom_prints" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">.</a>&nbsp;If you're not sure where to start, we've got lots of (photo) tricks and treats with these creative Halloween photoshoot ideas to make sure your autumn photos are absolutely perfect.</p>

<p>And after all that time spent on Halloween costumes and decor, it's no wonder your&nbsp;<a href="/products/all" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">camera roll</a>&nbsp;is filled with cute shots of your family in-costume (and pictures of those pumpkins you spent hours carving). Don't let those pics get lost in your phone, print them in a&nbsp;<a href="https://create.chatbooks.com/app/discover?page=halloween_category" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">Halloween-inspired photo book</a>, or hang them on your wall with<strong>&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://chatbooks.com/products/gallery-wall-tiles" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">Canvas Wall Tiles</a>. And if you love saving your favorite memories from every month, print 30 pictures each month with a&nbsp;<a href="https://chatbooks.com/products/monthbooks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">Monthbooks</a>&nbsp;subscription.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Go for matching family costume</strong></h6>

<p>Nothing is more fun than a full family costume. From the Brady Bunch to the Addams Family, find the best group costume for your squad and set up a spooky Halloween photoshoot with props galore. Ask everyone to get into character for hilarious pics you’ll definitely want to print.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Set up a photoshoot in the front yard</strong></h6>

<p>If you love to decorate your front yard with ALL the seasonal props, take some photos out there to commemorate all your hard work. Dress the little ones in their costumes and pose them in front of your pumpkins and ghouls for a truly festive photo.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Create a spooky backdrop</strong></h6>

<p>Make a super simple photoshoot backdrop like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.shelterness.com/diy-halloween-party-backdrops/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">one of these</a>, find all your little witches and ghosts, and get them in front of the camera for some adorable photos.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Snag some eerie scenery</strong></h6>

<p>If you’re a scary movie lover, odds are you might want your photos to err on the side of creepy rather than sweet. Find some dead tree branches to cover in cobwebs, opt for a night shoot or put some of your makeup skills to the test with an eerie costume.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Find a local festivity</strong></h6>

<p>In autumn, most communities are bustling with exciting activities for the whole family. Local pumpkin patches, haunted houses and hayrides will make for some spooky photos.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Wear totally random costumes</strong></h6>

<p>For those with a big group of friends, make sure to take some fun and hilarious photos with your costumes. Sometimes the sillier and more mismatched the costumes, the better! Rather than opting for a group costume, tell your squad to dress up as the weirdest collection of cartoons and celebrities who might sit around a fictional dinner table. This weird costume collective is bound to make you smile.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Incorporate your crafts</strong></h6>

<p>Make festive garlands like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.countryliving.com/diy-crafts/how-to/g1024/do-it-yourself-halloween-decorations-1010/?slide=27" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(0, 102, 204);">these</a>&nbsp;for a cute prop to use in your Halloween photoshoot. Grab some old craft paper to make a garland to go on your wall as a backdrop. Find some old ribbon to make some spooky tattered curtains.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Participate in classic Halloween activities</strong></h6>

<p>Go candid and score snaps of the kids carving pumpkins, eating their Halloween candies or getting into their costumes.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Ask the neighbors for help</strong></h6>

<p>If you live in a neighborhood with some great homes and props, ask your neighbors if you could take a photo in front of their decor with your family.</p>

<h6><strong style="font-size: 20px;">Learn a few photo editing tricks</strong></h6>

<p>This year, opt for a trick by learning a few editing skills to really amp up your Halloween photos. Create some spooky filters, incorporate some dark lighting and play with saturation on your blood-spattered props to make your photos really pop.</p>
