If you’ve ever wished your portraits looked like they stepped straight out of a horror film, a dark fairytale, or the pages of a gothic novel… welcome to Haunted Hearts.
At CNY Photographs, Haunted Hearts sessions are our love letter to the spooky girls, the witchy souls, the horror fans, and the beautifully chaotic hearts who prefer moonlight over sunshine. These sessions are designed to be dramatic, eerie, cinematic, and wildly fun — the kind of portraits that stop people mid-scroll and make them say, “Okay, that is seriously cool.”
Summon your coven.
Bring your ghoul friends.
Or embrace a little chaos with Ghostface himself.
With a new Scream movie haunting theaters this year, we decided it was the perfect time to open Haunted Hearts sessions all season long. That means you can book your spooky portraits anytime throughout the season and bring your favorite horror-inspired ideas to life.
From shadowy forests to historic cemeteries and dark academia inspired libraries, the possibilities for these sessions are deliciously spooky.
What Are Haunted Hearts Sessions?
Haunted Hearts sessions are creative, horror-inspired portrait sessions designed for anyone who loves spooky aesthetics, gothic imagery, and storytelling photography.
These aren’t your typical smiling-in-a-field portraits. Haunted Hearts sessions focus on creating cinematic, atmospheric images that feel like they belong in a horror movie, a ghost story, or a dark fantasy.
We guide you through the posing, lighting, and mood so your images feel intentional, dramatic, and full of personality.
These sessions are perfect for:
• Spooky girls who love dark aesthetics
• Best friends looking for chaotic ghoul friend photos
• Witchy coven-style portraits
• Horror lovers who want Ghostface in their shoot
• Couples who want something darker than traditional photos
• Cosplayers and creative souls who want to bring eerie characters to life
Basically, if Halloween is your favorite season and you love embracing your weird side, Haunted Hearts might just become your new favorite tradition.
Haunted Hearts Theme Ideas
One of the best parts about Haunted Hearts sessions is that creativity is always welcome. These sessions are meant to feel like storytelling — the darker, stranger, and more imaginative, the better.
Here are a few ideas that can make your session truly haunting:
Spooky Woodland Witch
Imagine wandering through the woods with flowing dresses, lanterns, crystals, or smoke drifting through the trees. These sessions feel like something out of a dark fairytale, especially when a coven of witches gathers together in the forest.
Ghoul Friends Chaos
Grab your best friends and create chaotic spooky portraits together. Think horror movie energy, creepy makeup, fake blood, dramatic poses, and lots of laughter in between the spooky moments.
Serial Killer Besties
True crime fans, this one is for you. Dark outfits, eerie props, and dramatic lighting can create portraits that feel like they belong on a chilling documentary poster. Creepy, cinematic, and unforgettable.
Evil Nun or Possessed Priest
If you love supernatural horror, this theme can be incredibly striking. Gothic clothing, dramatic shadows, and eerie expressions can turn a simple location into something that feels straight out of a horror film.
Horror Movie Cosplay
Ghostface, scream queens, creepy dolls, haunted brides, or any horror-inspired character you want to bring to life. If it belongs in a horror movie, it probably belongs in a Haunted Hearts session.
Haunted Library
For dark academia lovers, libraries can create beautiful, mysterious backdrops. Dusty books, candlelight, and moody portraits can feel like something from an old gothic story.
Dark Coven Portraits
Gather your witchy friends and create powerful group portraits. Long black dresses, candles, crystals, and dramatic poses can turn your coven into something truly cinematic.
Spooky Locations for Haunted Hearts Sessions
Location plays a huge role in creating the atmosphere for these sessions. Some of our favorite settings include:
• Shadowy woodland trails
• Historic cemeteries
• Gothic architecture
• Libraries with dark academia vibes
• Industrial or urban textures
• Foggy fields or misty landscapes
If you have a location idea you love, we’re always happy to explore creative possibilities.
We simply ask that all locations are used respectfully and with permission. Haunted Hearts sessions are about creating eerie art — not damaging historic places or causing trouble.
A Cinematic Experience
Every Haunted Hearts session is designed to feel like an experience, not just a photoshoot.
We guide you through posing, lighting, and creative direction to help bring your spooky concept to life. Whether you want eerie, mysterious, dramatic, or chaotic horror energy, we help shape the session so your images feel cinematic and unforgettable.
These sessions are all about storytelling — creating portraits that feel like they belong in a dark novel, a horror movie, or a ghost story.
