I got the idea when I bought my first house, and the first Halloween there, a child came by (that I knew well) and I asked their parent if I could take their pic b/c they were just so darn cute! She was very proud of the fact I wanted to take it...so I asked the next parent, they were ok with it, and it just started from there.
I also discovered it was the only time of the year when you have that many people stop by your house, so I used it as an opportunity to have impromptu invites to come in and meet everyone.
It's just "my thing", parents put alot of love and money into making or buying costumes for those kids, and I just really appreciate their efforts.
