When you get overrun with vampires it's always smart to use the best tools for the job. Been trying to keep boredom away by shooting the glaives from the Blade movies. Playing around with different "poses" and whatnot, even used my daughter's dress in a few...


Comments and critique always welcome...and yes, I have a lot of nice sharp toys...

Nice set of photos - fascinating implements.... I would imaging the lighting was a real challenge. It looks great.

Is there a big vampire problem in Carol Stream, Illinois?:eek:

Not yet, but I'm keeping my eye out. You never know when they'll start popping up, and I want to make sure I get them before they can do another one of those ridiculous Twilight movies...

I think they've all moved to the west coast. Portland, Oregon in particular.

If it's not vampires it's zombies, werewolves, ex-wives, etc..


Here's a few that were done on my daughter's sparkly dress we found when cleaning her closet. I saw it and immediately thought "Hey, that's gonna make an awesome background!"...I think photography is a mental disorder for some of us...
