We transform you into a killer clown, with terrifying makeup and lots of evil clowning around!
About this shoot
• In this dramatic photoshoot, you will be transformed fully into a scary clown.
• You will be directed by the photographer into scary poses which will feature a lot of fake blood. As the shoot progresses, more blood will be added.
• This can be a pretty gory portrait photoshoot in which you will become the most amazing creepy clown! The actual shoot is a lot of fun and not scary to do, but the resulting photos are very scary!
• Maximum x2 people.
Are you scared of clowns?
Why ain't you laughing?
Things you need to bring
• Clown costume. Buying a clown costume is pretty easy and many are quite inexpensive, which is ideal as we will likely end up ruining it with fake blood and gore. There are so many to choose from so buy (or make) your own costume that you like.
• Please consider light coloured clothes, rather than dark colours or reds. We want all the blood and gore to really show up so lighter colours work better for this. However, you can wear whatever you like so if you want to wear dark colours then you can, but the gore will be less visible.
• You can theme your clown if you want to (for example, a zombie clown, fanged vampire clown, etc).
• Damage to clothes: Please keep in mind that whatever clothes or costume you bring may suffer damage or be utterly ruined by the end of the shoot. We do horror properly at Horrify Me!
• Props: Feel free to bring any appropriate props if you have any that you would like to use (optional).
• Eyes: You may bring your own eye contacts for scary eye effects if you want to (optional). We don't supply contacts.
• Please bring a towel for clean-up at the end.
Buying your clown costume is generally easy and inexpensive, depending on what you fancy.
Many commercially available clown costumes come with a mask, but this will not be required in your shoot because we always create makeup.
The makeup process
• Horrify Me supplies all the horror makeup and fake blood.
• The makeup process is thorough and comprehensive. We will use some tactile horror makeup as well as clown face paint for a better effect. The process can take a few hours.
• Every makeup is different and unique to you! We don't re-use the same pieces on people, instead we create each makeup completely bespoke to suit your own face on the day.

This one got crazy!
The shoot
• You will be guided throughout the shoot and instructed how to pose.
• As the shoot progresses, more blood gets added and the process gets very messy and gory.
• All the makeup and fake blood is completely safe. The blood is sugar-based and fully edible allowing for plenty of drooling and flesh eating.
Adding more blood!
You will be guided through all poses
Clean up
• At the end of the shoot you can clean up. Everything is harmless but certain parts might pull on your skin like a sticking plaster, or leave small traces of skin glue behind which will need to be washed off.
• You will be able to wash in the studio. Everything comes off pretty easily although you might need a proper shower when you get home.

• Horrify Me conducts very comprehensive portrait shoots to really make the most of your session.
• You will do a variety of poses. The process is great fun and the photos look like real horror movie stills.
