Family Halloween Shoot 🎃 (ENG-ESP)
After days of cloudy overcast and rain, we finally experienced a bit of sunshine! ☀️ So we decided to take advantage of the pleasant weather and went out for a little family photoshoot.
Después de días nublados y lluviosos, ¡finalmente* experimentamos un poco de sol! ☀️ Así que decidimos aprovechar el agradable clima y salimos a hacer una pequeña sesión de fotos familiar.*
With Halloween approaching, it only seemed appropriate that we wear our costumes. Our oldest daughter went through the entire catalogue of costumes and decided that she wanted to be a firefighter (complete with hat and firetruck! 😄). Our youngest daughter is going to be Snow White, but unfortunately she fell asleep for this photoshoot, so we will have to get her next time!
I don't plan on dressing up for Halloween, but I stumbled upon this old clown costume in the closet, so I decided to get dressed up as well.
Con Halloween acercándose, nos pareció apropiado que usáramos nuestros disfraces. Nuestra hija mayor revisó todo el catálogo de disfraces y decidió que quería ser bombero (¡completo con sombrero y camión de bomberos! 😄). Nuestra hija menor será Blancanieves, pero desafortunadamente se quedó dormida para esta sesión de fotos, ¡así que tendremos que buscarla la próxima vez!
No planeo disfrazarme para Halloween, pero me topé con este viejo disfraz de payaso en el armario, así que decidí disfrazarme también.
This first photo turned out perfectly ✨ This was one of those photos where I was struck with inspiration beforehand and knew exactly how I wanted it captured. I told my husband I would have my back facing towards him while I looked down the hill. I wanted the hill to be captured in the background, and this is what my husband gave me ❤️
I wanted the overall impression to be obvious: a clown, brandishing a knife, looking down at any potential victims that may be waiting down below...
Esta primera foto resultó perfecta ✨ Esta fue una de esas fotos en las que de antemano me inspiré y supe exactamente cómo quería capturarla. Le dije a mi esposo que estaría de espaldas a él mientras miraba colina abajo. Quería que el cerro quedara captado de fondo, y esto es lo que me regaló mi marido ❤️
Quería que la impresión general fuera obvia: un payaso blandiendo un cuchillo, mirando a las posibles víctimas que pudieran estar esperando abajo...
This was the front shot. I wore leggings with blood splatters, and I wish I had done a better job of utilizing them.
Esta fue la toma frontal. Llevaba mallas con salpicaduras de sangre y desearía haberlas utilizado mejor.
(A better view of the outfit. Unfortunately I did not have time to do a full face of clown makeup 🤡)
(Una mejor vista del outfit. Lamentablemente no tuve tiempo de maquillarme la cara completa de payaso 🤡)
As I stated earlier, our oldest daughter wants to be a firefighter 😄👩🚒 Here was the two of us together:
Como dije antes, nuestra hija mayor quiere ser bombero 😄👩🚒 Aquí estábamos los dos juntos:
She was very excited to be having pictures taken in her costume -- look at how tightly she's squeezing her hands together! 😂
Estaba muy emocionada de que le tomaran fotos con su disfraz. ¡Mira con qué fuerza aprieta sus manos! 😂

And whatta wonderful stroke of luck! On the way to our photoshoot, we happened to come across a film crew that were painting over a tunnel for a movie scene. One of the painters happened to ask our oldest daughter what her name was (Kiva). She was too shy and nervous to take photos while everyone was there, so on the way home we took photos of Kiva with her name!
¡Y qué maravilloso golpe de suerte! De camino a nuestra sesión de fotos, nos encontramos con un equipo de filmación que estaba pintando un túnel para una escena de película. Uno de los pintores le preguntó a nuestra hija mayor cómo se llamaba (Kiva). Ella era demasiado tímida y nerviosa para tomar fotos mientras todos estaban allí, así que de camino a casa tomamos fotos de Kiva con su nombre.
¡Que hermoso momento! La felicidad que debió tener tu niña. 🥰
Los disfraces son geniales! Están bellísimas. 🌺
Gracias por tu encantador comentario 🙏 No sé qué tan popular es Halloween en otras partes del mundo, ¡pero en Canadá nos encanta celebrarlo! Espero hacer otro post de las luces y decoraciones 🎃
Pues los disfraces son algo principal en casi todos lados, pero por mi parte amo Halloween y esa manera sana de disfrutarlo, me encanta.
Me encantaría ver ese post, sería fantástico! 🥰

Sounds like a lovely family afternoon! How cool was that, that they painted her name in the tunnel for the movie set! Thanks for sharing and enjoy!
Yes it was wonderful, this warm weather has been rare but we have been enjoying it! ☀️
Thank you for your comment 🙇♀️ We happened to capture pictures of our youngest daughter as *Snow White," I hope to share those soon
I look forward to seeing them! Take care!
What a beautiful idea. It's been the same for me here in the UK, and yesterday I took some photos next to autumn leaves, which lifted my mood. I might do the same today if it doesn't rain.
Lovely family-themed photos:)
That's wonderful, I'm glad you've had the chance to enjoy the season as well! 🙏🎃 Is Halloween big in the UK? I hope to capture some photos of the local lights and decorations soon
Halloween is becoming more popular in the UK now, and as commercialised as Christmas.
I do like to see the decorations though and I hope your photoshoot goes well:)
Evil clowns are cool. I hope you and your daughters have a fun time @borderline.babe
I'm always looking forward to the Halloween season.
