In the fall of 2020 there was a viral ghost photo trend. My friend Bella asked me to participate in it with her. I was so much fun to embarrass ourselves and in public and to take these silly photos.
To create these photos we took some white bed sheets and sunglasses to be the Ghosts eyes since we didn't want to ruin the sheets but cutting wholes in them. Not being able to see presented some challenges obviously.
To take the actual photos we would plan out each photo then I would setup my tripod and frame the shot. Once we were ready I would trigger the 10 second timer and then run to my position. For the photos that had more than two ghosts in them we took several photos in a row which I then combined in Adobe Photoshop. For the old time film photo effect I did some heavy editing in Adobe Lightroom including adding grain, vignette, and a layer of dust and scratches.
Overall, this was just a blast to fool around and create!
