Ghostly Creations on the Green

This past Wednesday, October 8th, our club gathered on the Milord Green downtown for a hauntingly fun evening of ghostly photography in celebration of Halloween!
We kicked things off with a quick discussion on the techniques behind creating spooky, long-exposure images. With guidance from our seasoned photographers—and the eerie charm of our skeletal model, Bones—we dove right in, experimenting with light, movement, and imagination to bring our ghostly visions to life.
If you couldn’t make it, don’t worry! We’ve put together a short guide with equipment recommendations and step-by-step instructions so you can craft your own spectral masterpiece at home.
Check out a few of the haunting images captured that night below…
