Night photography at Sleepy Hollow Cemetery

Night photography 
at Sleepy Hollow Cemetery

Saturday, Nov 30th  (4 PM to 10:00 PM)

540 North Broadway, Sleepy Hollow, NY


We have special after hours access to Sleepy Hollow Cemetery! (Just over an hours drive from Hamden, CT). The cemetery usually closes at 4:30pm but we will be there after dark. We will meet at the gate by 4pm and shoot until 10pm! You will learn how to control the ambient light with your long exposures and the local light with your flashlight. We will spend the first part of the session going over camera settings and tips for long exposures, light painting etc. For the first part we typically shoot as a group, and then you can practice what you have learned!













You can see some photographs from Don, a participant on our October Sleepy Hollow trip here: Sleepy Hollow

Take exposures less than 30 seconds for pinpoint stars or 1-5 minutes to capture the star trails, point your camera at the north star and get star trails (8-60 minute exposures); light the headstones, walk among them and be a ghost in your own image, the sky is the limit.
