Check Out the Awesome Makeup in this Epic Self-Portrait Project - 31 Days of Halloween
For most of us, the hardest part about committing to a portrait project is coming up with new and creative photos day in and day out, but that doesn’t seem to be the case for pro photographer, Amanda Chapman. Since 2012, Chapman has been partaking in a 31 Days Of Halloween project where she dresses up in different makeup and costume every day for the month of October. Once learning her husband had been diagnosed with cancer in August of 2012, Chapman desperately needed an outlet and a project to ease the mind’s of her and her family. As October of the same year rolled around, she started doing different makeup every day and posting the photos to her facebook page.
Though she had no formal training in makeup, in fact, she had only done it a couple times in the past for Halloween costumes, her Tim Burton inspired looks grabbed the attention of her fans while simultaneously giving her family something fun to look forward to each day.
“The 31 Days Of Halloween was like therapy for us. My husband had something to look forward to everyday. Two years later my husband still has cancer (non Hodgkin’s lymphoma) but has never had to have a single treatment. Today this project has become a celebration of both my true love for Halloween and my wonderful husband Greg.”
Chapman’s awesome photography project took off and her portfolio has been evolving ever since.
