to think children zombie photoshoots are wrong?

theres a trend for photographers to offer zombie themed photo shoots, a photographer in america did a set of the scenes from the walking dead using children? when we know how abhorrent it would be for the theme to be sexual why is violence ok? isnt dressing up and posing children in adult themes then taking photos for the adults gratification a form of abuse? and why would anyone want a picture of their child as the undead?

What do you let your kids dress up as for Halloween? Candyfloss?

Another thread that means absolutely nothing to me. Is this actually a thing?

ElsaAintAsColdAsMe · 08/09/2016 20:42

Sticking on some face paint, acting like a zombie and taking photos is not abuse ffs.

Ooh is this a thing???

DS will LOVE it!!!!!

I certainly wouldn't do it as I have a zombie phobia but if parents want to zombify their children, doesn't bother me

PurpleDaisies · 08/09/2016 20:45

I can't imagine the children were forced into it against their will. It sounds like the sort of thing they'd find fun.

Jellybean83 · 08/09/2016 20:46

My DS would absolutely love this, zombies are his thing just now!

That sounds BRILLIANT!!

ProseccoBitch · 08/09/2016 20:48

What has dressing up as a zombie got to do with violence?!

Namechangenurseryconcerns · 08/09/2016 20:49

I hate it. It makes me extremely uncomfortable and would probably give me nightmares!
I also hate children dressing up in gruesome things at Halloween Paul
Each to their own I guess but definitely not for me!

Have you seen that little girl in the first season of the walking dead? She's clutching a teddy and half her face is chewed off. Best series ever completely misses the point of thread

DD1 has been a zombie at Halloween for the last 3 years and I've got pretty good at the make up but a professional photo shoot would go go down a storm with my bunch!
Thanks OP, I'd never heard of this before! Smile
