The Freaks Are Out

This was such an awesome and fun shoot that we did on the day with these really talented child models.

The concept was simple. A cute Halloween image!

Not only does the lighting, garments and makeup add to the overall mood but what I did to add a bit more surrealism to it, was to enlarge their heads by about 50%.

I think it's one of those images you need to do a double take to figure out whats a little strange about it!

Lighting was a 700mm beauty dish on the right and a 1200mm softbox on the right to soften the shadow.
