Can you believe this costume? Megan found it on line and ordered it before she knew if the baby was a girl or a boy - either way, the baby was going to be a porcupine for Halloween. Megan thought that the costume would be large enough in October for the baby to wear a full set of warm clothes under it, along with a sweater. No one knew that Peyton was going to be such a chubby baby! All that would fit under her costume was a diaper!Halloween night was so dark, that with the chocolate brown costume, we could not get any good shots. Two days later, we carefully "slid" Peyton into the costume again and set her outside among the pumpkins in front of the workshop for her photo shoot.
I think that is an excellent idea for any scrapbooking Mom - a couple of days before Halloween and the sugar high sets in, set up a photo shoot that utilizes natural daylight when you have time to capture the shots that you want, without children complaining that they want to head out trick or treating! With some extra time and natural light, you will get the Halloween shots that you wanted, without the stress and craziness of Halloween night. With a little planning, the photos will turn out much better than they would have with a flash!!! Just look at those bright blue eyes - they would have been dark or red with the use of a flash.
Peyton was too little for candy, she really didn't get the whole idea of the event, but she loved all the attention. How could you resist kissing those fat little cheeks! I highly recommend being a Grandma!
