Goth Girls


Today I took the girls' annual Halloween picture for the cards I usually send out although it's been about three years since the last time I did that. These photos were taken in the Moscow cemetary to get the right feel. The above one I left in color so you could see what the outfits and make-up looked like. Lots of mascara, eyeshadow and eyeliner - pretty much any black make-up in the house was used on the eyes - short of a Sharpie marker.

The girls weren't too thrilled with getting all dolled up so I had to bribe them with a $10 modeling contract each.


Josie's attention span was done after about 10 snaps of the camera so Annabelle appeased me. These were shot by the only mausoleum in the cemetary. I loved the wrought iron fencing.




I took 40 pictures in about a 20 minute span in various places around the cemetary. I am very pleased to report that the only "souls" I captured on film were of my daughters.


This shot was the winner. The hard part will be assembling the cards and getting them mailed out in time.

You should seriously consider going to art school.
