With the increasing popularity of themed wedding photos, it has become clear that people are growing bored with traditional pictures of rings, hand holding and beaches that look like they came from a stock photo company.
With that in mind, Sean K. and his bride-to-be decided celebrate their engagement by killing a ninja. Check out some additional photos after the break.
It seems that Darth Vader and an aged super hero have struck up a friendship in the nursing home. Protip: wearing your Underoos on the outside insures that you don’t accidentally poop in them.
Check out more pictures from this awesome photo set created by Sacha Goldberger after the break. Plus, there’s a little surprise with the Vader unmasking.
Using cardboard and a five gallon bucket, Tyler Card fashioned himself the ultimate photographer’s Halloween costume in the form of a fully-functional camera. A Nikon DSLR allows the costume to take photos when the shutter release is pressed, displaying them on an integrated LCD screen.
Check out the videos after the break to watch the build process, and see it in action.
Yesterday we featured some fantastic cosplay portraits from Senén Llanos, and today photographer Chris Gampat sent us some of his work from the con.
As you can see from the image above and the gallery after the break, he’s got a nice mix of crazy and sexy going on here.
Photographer Senén Llanos spent his first Comic Con taking some fantastic portraits of cosplayers. And I don’t mean the kind of portraits you took in Jr. High (though Wolverine standing with a leg propped up on a log with a fake-looking wilderness scene behind him would be hilarious)—no, these are classy.
Check out more of his work after the break.
When your wife’s birthday comes around and all she asks for is a Post-Apocalypse/Zombie Slaying family portrait session, you should oblige. You should also realize you are incredibly lucky. Craftster member ChainCrafts gets that. He made costumes for his wife and three kids from hubcaps, soda tabs, and sporting equipment. Then he hired Bakan Photography to create memorable and fun portraits.
See more photos of the zombie slaying family in the gallery after the break.
I hope Batman is willing to give up a little gas, grass or ass.

Marc & Louis Photography have created rather provocative series of images they call Dreaming of the Dark Side. They describe the project thusly:
The story is about a girl dreaming of the Darth Vader. You can see what happens when he doesn’t like a twi’lek lady flirting with him…
More images from the series are available after the break.
As a wanna-be photographer, I’m a fan of bags that fit everything and are still comfortable to carry. This bag is compact and easy to access. It’s like a portable cooler for your camera parts.

- Iconic quick release buckle with integrated bottle opener
- Velcro straps for mini tripod
- EVA foam padded shoulder strap with cross-chest load stabilizer for increased rideability
