Okay, so you might have seen these photos already. They kind of took on a life of their own. If that's how you found me: hi! Welcome! Grab a candy apple, pull up a chair, and stay awhile.
Here's the deal. This couple wanted photos together at Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando before they made it official. One week later, they said "I do" at 'Til Death Chapel. So technically, this is the spooky little prequel to their love story. Every good horror franchise needs an origin story, right?
From Stay & Scream to opening night chaos
We kicked things off during Stay & Scream, when the sun is still out, the streets are already dressed up for HHN 35, and everyone is buzzing about the night ahead. Then we rolled straight into the opening of Halloween Horror Nights as the fog started creeping in and the scare actors came out to play.
Our very official, very scientific hit list:
The giant HHN 35 sign (obviously)
The "Welcome to HHN 35" marquee
Mel's Drive-In glowing pink and teal at golden hour
The Kitty Kat Club
The Midway of the Bizarre (yes, the one with all the heads)
So. Much. Fog. Rolling in at exactly the right moments, like the universe was art directing
About that clown
He wandered over, stood right next to them with his balloons, and did not blink while they kissed like nobody was watching. I did not plan that. I could not have planned that. That is just HHN being HHN, and it is now one of my favorite photos I have ever taken. Ever.
“I did not plan that. I could not have planned that.”
Why this shoot just works
A white mini dress with a lace hem. A veil. Vans. A bowling shirt. Two people laughing their way through a horror event one week before their wedding. No stiff poses, no forced smiles, just pure beautifully chaotic energy. My absolute favorite kind.

HHN photoshoot FAQ
Can you do a photoshoot at Halloween Horror Nights?
Yes! I photograph sessions at Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Orlando in Florida. We start during Stay & Scream and roll into the opening of the event, then wrap at sunset since flash is not allowed once HHN is in full swing.
Do I need my own tickets?
Yes. You will need your own park tickets for the day of your session.
How much is an HHN photo session?
Sessions are a 1 hour minimum starting at $350, with 65+ edited images delivered digitally in 3 weeks.
Do you only shoot during HHN?
Nope! I do photoshoots all around the Universal Orlando theme parks, not just during Halloween Horror Nights. Couples, friends, families, birthdays, the whole chaotic crew.
Can we elope at Universal Orlando?
You can! I photograph Universal elopements through Meant To Be Elopements, and if you want a Vegas style "I do" off property, check out 'Til Death Chapel.
Is this the Hollywood HHN?
Nope, this is the Orlando one. All my HHN and Universal sessions happen at Universal Orlando Resort in Florida.
