Happy spooky season! Since I got such a positive response on my own TikTok ghost photoshoot, I wanted to show you how easy it is to recreate your own version of the trend!

All you need is:

  • a bedsheet or two (you can use one from home or pick up a white sheet from Dollar Tree or another value store if you want to cut eyeholes)
  • a pair of sunglasses
  • a friend to help you shoot// your camera + tripod
  • Iphone for external flash
  • a little spooky spirit

You can always pick out an epic or fun location ahead of time—I was able to capture this series at a scenic overlook near the freeway. I definitely plan on recreating this trend a few more times at the beach and a few other fun SoCal spots.

All of these photos were shot by myself using my camera, tripod and iPhone for external flash. It was quite the adventure directing, styling, photographing and editing my own shoot, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I want to see your take on the trend! Tag me on Instagram @melodykschmidt so I can see what you create.
