One paper ghost. Six ways to tell its story.
Make a freestanding paper ghost and take it somewhere ordinary: your front steps, a courtyard or a garden. Six shot prompts explain framing and focus, then help you choose five photographs for a small story.
Who it’s for
Someone who wants a cute October photo project without costumes, camera gear or a big production.
What you’ll need
A phone camera, paper, a pen, scissors and a small bag for the finished prop. Choose a safe route in daylight or early dusk. No camera equipment or costume is needed.
A couple of useful details.
Do I need an editing app?
No. The guide uses framing, focus and exposure controls found in ordinary phone camera apps. Optional edits can be done with your phone’s built-in tools.
Is this the sheet-ghost photo trend?
This version uses a small paper prop. Nobody has to wear a sheet or pose in a costume.
