It really was a great time and the candy that the kids shared with me really kept me going (although my knees were pretty sore the next day from squatting for 4 hours straight).
There are some amazingly creative people who come trick or treating in Tribeca. It’s really become quite a scene in the neighborhood.
Below, one of my faves of the day – Gwen, whom I’ve taken portraits of before – here as Pippi Longstocking.
Her way creative dad came up with the costume including knitting that hair himself!
And the ugly doll costumes were awesome.
But for angelic, you can’t beat this wonder woman.
I love this next shot. This kid is so proud of the costume that he made all by himself. He rocked.
The humanburger…
And I loved this shot of the Pirate with the missing tooth. Aye me hardy.
This is my son, Cole. Probably the only kid that I DIDN’T manage to get a good shot of before he ran away. He had his hair back and tied with a black bow, his black velvet jacket, a black tie, black pants, cool black glasses, fingerless black gloves and a diamond studded skull belt. We were going to powder his hair gray but he bailed on that at the last second. Can you guess who he was?
hint: He’s a famous fashion designer who heads the House of Chanel.
Some more amazing Ugly Dolls.
And a bat boy demonstrating his echolocating abilities.
This spectacular seahorse.
and our angelic covergirl…
and a few more…
Where’s Waldo?
Charlie…
The scarecrow…
And my boys and me trying hide the mouthful of Almond Joy that Cole had just given me (he picks them out when he sees people giving them away as treats – just for Daddy.) At a boy!
You can see all of the images from the Tribeca Costume Collection here.
It was such fun maybe we’ll even do it again next year…
