Scare Away Hunger

The Ninth Annual Scare Away Hunger Food Drive

Every Halloween, Alycat Photo & Video Services opens its studio doors to goblins, superheroes and princesses. This October, we will once again invite the community to bring their children and pets in their best costumes to pose on our Halloween sets in exchange for food and goods benefiting The Animal Protection Society of Durham or The Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina.

In order to participate, we ask that you bring a donation of at least five cans of food or 1 bag of pet food per child/pet photographed and you’ll receive 2-3 photos per child/pet in exchange. It’s that simple! Of course, you can donate more. In fact, the more you donate, the more photos we will send along.

Due to the current pandemic, Scare Away Hunger will be taking on a different look and feel. Our goal is to keep this tradition alive but do it safely. The health of our families as well as those in our home are the top priority. We will have a limited number of spots this year. Depending on how things go, we may open up more. Be sure to follow us on social media for updates. Photos will be taken on an outdoor set. We have options for rain or shine, so please plan on coming either way. If you make an appointment and cannot make it or if anyone in your family is feeling ill, we ask you to notify us right now. If you or your children are feeling sick, we ask that you please cancel your appointment.

In order to participate, everyone follow our safety requirements. We would love for everyone to participate in a fun, but safe manner. In order to do so, we are implementing the following rules.

  • Those who attend must be wearing a mask (covering their mouth and nose) unless they are being photographed. Children 3 and younger do not need to wear a mask. If your child has an issue with masks, let us know when scheduling your session. We will try to accommodate things as they arise.
  • You must bring your own blanket to sit on for the photos.
  • Please come wearing your costume. No one will be allowed in side the house this year to change.
  • There will be hand sanitizer available. Please help yourselves.

Please email Alyson at alyson@alycatphotos.com to schedule your Scare Away Hunger session today! Space is limited and will be booked on a first come, first serve basis.
