Whether photographing costumes, decorations, parties, pick the most important facet and zero in on it by moving in close. By doing this, you&#8217;ll avoid a common photography error: cluttered pictures with no discernible subject or not enough detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.snapfish.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.snapfish.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/blog-2..jpg\" alt=\"Halloween photos\" class=\"wp-image-311\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-add-extra-light-inside-pumpkins\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">&#x1f383;&nbsp;Add extra light inside pumpkins<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To take pumpkin pictures that really shine, you need to let the light through-and add extra lighting for real impact. Try these tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cut extra-large openings for eyes and big, jagged smiles.<\/li><li>Use two or three candles inside the pumpkin. Or, place a torch in the pumpkin.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.snapfish.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.snapfish.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/pump.jpg\" alt=\"Halloween photos\" class=\"wp-image-312\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-take-photos-at-twilight\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>&#x1f383;<\/em><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">&nbsp;Take photos at twilight<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twilight is an ideal time to take pictures because the remaining light in the sky is very dramatic. During twilight, we suggest using a tripod or a fill flash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your camera&#8217;s automatic flash will come on at night, but for better results, turn it off and use a torch to illuminate spooky subjects from the side or below. Also, use the Night Portrait setting on your camera, which uses flash and a long exposure. To avoid blurry results, use a tripod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-action-shots\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">&#x1f383;&nbsp;Action shots<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re welcoming children to your door, work with someone else. Have one person open the door and greet the kids while the other snaps away. When taking your kids trick-or-treating, position yourself so that you can photograph them as they receive treats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.snapfish.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.snapfish.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Stocksy_txp1450d3750m9000_Medium_952641.jpg\" alt=\"Halloween photos\" class=\"wp-image-313\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.snapfish.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.snapfish.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stocksy_txpd4dd8dbaI8U000_Medium_95268.jpg\" alt=\"Halloween photos\" class=\"wp-image-3590\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.snapfish.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stocksy_txpd4dd8dbaI8U000_Medium_95268.jpg 720w, https:\/\/blog.snapfish.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Stocksy_txpd4dd8dbaI8U000_Medium_95268-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throwing a party?
