Halloween 2010

We did Alice in Wonderland this year.

With the Queen of Hearts.

The Mad Hatter.

And of course, Alice (who recently got a haircut.)

Oh, and Dweedledee & Dweedledum.

We went trick-or-treating in the same neighborhood as last year (because it's so lovely.)

The Mad Hatter & The Queen of Hearts had to sit out a house for fighting.

So Alice went without them.

I don't know what that face was all about but it cracks me up.

The Queen of Hearts spilled her loot.

And then she laughed as her dad chucked acorns at The Mad Hatter.

Hope your Halloween was great.

Here's Halloween shots from 2009, 2008 and 2007 and I'll try to get our pumpkin patch and pumpkin carving shots up this week.

You have made my day. Love the costumes. I think the Queen of Hearts is my favorite. So great they agree to do a theme. Looking forward to more.

Love the pictures Karen - looks like you all had fun last night. We also did some trick or treating here - or "knask eller knep" as we say it! How much candy can a kid eat..... ;o)

Hi Karen I have been waiting for your stunning Halloween photos a day after Halloween in Australia although it is not as big over here as the USA but first time ever our local supermarkets had huge pumpkins in the store for carving. We have always had a few decorations but nothing major. Anyway your photos did not disappoint, they are stunning and I had to laugh about the "fighting" because afterall sometimes the whole adventure does not have it's downfalls where kids are involved. Just amazing pics, thanks for sharing (Kathy A, Australia - recent past student). xxxx

[Kathy Aylward]

one more question...was the "white knight" used or the 24-70 f2.8?

[kristin]

Dude... you're back with a vengeance. Incredible images!!! Nice to have you posting again - the whole fam looks great!

Love the Halloween costumes and photos. My kids were lame sauce this year and I didn't even bother to photograph them. Hmm, maybe I am the lame one. :) I've had "register for Karen Russell's class at 9pm" on my calendar for months. We've had a lot of unexpected expenses recently so I would be forever grateful to win a spot to audit the class. Thank you!!

[Tracy]

Karen your pictures are amazing!!! Love the ones at night with the lights on the fence and bushes...you need to do a "Making the Shot" class on your halloween pictures ( and Christmas shots!! ). The costumes are perfect!! Love them!

[Julie Pilch]

Loved your Halloween photos!!! We went with the Wizard of Oz theme in our house, I had a Dorothy, Good Witch Glinda and the Tin Man (even though it was a tin girl) and I was the scarecrow! Would love to know where I could possibly get the Queen of Hearts costume. My middle dd is having an Alice in Wonderland birthday party and I would love her sister to have the Queen of Hearts costume! Lovely to see you back xx

Absolutely stunning photos. They take my breath away, esp. the night shots. Sigh.... What I wouldn't give to have shots like that:) Thanks for sharing. Your work totally inspires me and your way with words is equally enthralling. Happy Halloween!

[Gekakel]

I love your photos! I looked at the photos of the years before and the photos of Annie as a pumpkin made me melt!

[Meiann]

I so love your photos. Great shots. You have beautiful kids :). God bless your family

[Anita Guthrie]

I love all that color!! Great costumes and wonderful photos. Looks like everyone had a fabulous time. Thanks so much for sharing them with all of us Karen. You Rock!

[Juli]

I know that you take amazing photos, but looking back at these and the years past...the difference is amazing....
I can't decide what it is, Nikon vs. Canon? post processing? Whatever it is, your photos are stunning!
I hope that some of it is post processing and therefore, can't wait for Erin Cobb's Clean Color DVD!

[Erika Melnychuk]

love the cute family theme! how fortunate that everyone was willing to cooperate :) AMAZING pictures!!!!!!

[Louise Murr]

WOW...your pictures are so abSOlutely amazing....And it looks like everyone had lots of fun.

Louise

[kim]

Karen, Loved your Halloween shots! The Alice theme reminded me of another photographer in my area (camas wa) that did a wonderful Alice shoot. I think you'll appreciate it. Her name is Lara Blair......I'm sure if you do a search you'll find it easily.

[Kelli]

[Leslie]

[misha leigh]

These are ADORABLE, and Annie is so grown up with that sweet haircut! Love having you back!

[Earl Flournoy]

Those kids are so cute! I remember my children in Ohio. They love attending Halloween parties, too! Even if they're grown-ups, they still attend Halloween events every year. Just last year, Liz and Cher imitated Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. They wore Tony of Beverly wigs.
