DANCING FLAMES
This image is a result of a video lesson I found on YouTube. This was my opportunity to learn a new skill that I can apply moving forward. This image is not an original idea of mine but I think I pulled off the process required to make it work. Stay tuned to see what I can create with my new found skills.
I’m very proud of how this turned out and i look forward to using it to create my own unique images.

Sweeney Todd ... SHADOW'S GATE: THE DEMON BARBER
Back in the middle of July this year we were fortunate enough to begin a journey with Shadow’s Gate Haunt that we believe is just the start of a very worthwhile and rewarding journey.
Carter Michael Fenske arrived at VOH Studio in makeup ready to go for our first shoot together for the Haunt. Tim Burton fans will be pleased to see his portrayal of Sweeney Todd. Carter arrived with his Dad, Laurence, the Creative Director and one of the owners of Shadow’s Gate Haunt. Carter’s makeup was already in place by the fabulous Nina McAviney from Elektro FX.
As he got dressed you could see the character coming to life. Once he was in the studio with the strobes flashing and the camera clicking it didn’t take him long to channel the demon barber.
The shoot lasted about 2 hours as Heather went through her planned shots, the outcome was amazing. We also included some Easter Eggs in the images, a bit of foreshadowing of future shoots and characters.
We had discussed submitting the images to Phantasm Magazine at the time as we have a very good relationship with them and thought these would be perfect for their fall edition. Heather spent a couple of weeks pouring through the photos and editing her favorites.
Once they were complete we submitted them to the magazine with fingers crossed. We got an immediate response from Geneva at Phantasm telling us we were in and she was considering them for the feature and the cover.
We were beyond excited. It was just over a week before the release of the magazine that we got the word that we were going to be on the cover. They sent over interview questions for Heather for the feature. We sat with much anticipation waiting for the magazines to be published.
Here now are the images and the interview with Heather. We couldn’t be more proud of everyone involved in the shoot.
Please give a like and comment.
Thank you,

THE CORN WITCH
The Corn Witch
Ready for a little Quality time with the Corn Witch?? 10.27.18
The hour was just past midnight. The full moon was past its zenith, intermittently casting a pale glow across the corn field on either side of the narrow road as the clouds flitted across its face.
The carriage came to a halt, raising a cloud of dust. The horses were agitated and the driver felt a need to calm them before they headed down the long hill into London.
The coach was full, mostly lords and ladies and their children returning from Cornwall. It had been a long journey and they were anxious to get home.
There was an eerie looking fog, almost purple in colour reminiscent of bruised violets, drifting long tendrils from out of the corn field. It seemed to be reaching for something, covering the road in front of the horses. Their ears were back, nostrils flaring, champing at their bits and stomping the ground. The driver was on the ground doing his best to calm his team.
There was a rustle to the right of the coach in the corn; a number of crows took flight suddenly startling the footman at the rear of the carriage.
Something in the corn had disturbed the crows. He could just see something moving around under the pale moon light.
He grabbed the lantern, placing it on a long pole and swung it out over the corn field in an attempt to see what was moving about among the tall corn stalks.
As the light from his lantern cast its glow on the corn stalks the moon suddenly broke free of the drifting clouds to reveal an old woman standing in the corn, she was bent, with a pronounced hump on her back. She had long gray hair, flowing robes and a large hook nose jutting out from under her hood. In her right hand she had a wooden staff.
She slowly raised her bony hand to point at the carriage, a smile crossing her lips. Her eyes were hidden within the shadow of her hooded brow but the footman sensed a foreboding within them that sent a chill up his spine.
The horses reared in panic, the footman looked to the driver who had just retaken his seat. The horses were about to bolt. He took one more look in the field as the moon was disappearing behind the clouds; the woman was nowhere to be seen.
The carriage surged forward nearly costing the footman his precarious perch on the rear of the coach. He struggled to retain control of the lamp as the carriage began to pick up speed towards the long hill to London. Crows broke out of the field on both sides keeping apace momentarily with the coach before breaking formation and disappearing into the night air with a flutter of wings; cawing and screeching in the dark.
Just as the carriage broke through the strange looking fog, the footman swore he heard a cackling laugh echoing through the corn fields, he could not bring himself to look back as the team raced over the crest of the last hill and out of sight.

Shadow's Gate Haunt
She had been a daughter of a Gypsy once, one of the families that had fled Salem a hundred years prior to her birth.
She was their leader, a mother of sorts. Not that she had ever been a mother; she was only nine when she was turned. However, she felt a kindred spirit with this motley crew of lost children, undead, walkers, vampires and werewolves. She kept an uneasy peace as there was no true peace to be found for any of them.
She had her own ax to grind… Vlad.
She had one simple rule for her “children”. You don’t feed on each other.
