Miami Artist's Skull Photos Featured on the 

CW Network's The Vampire Diaries

South Florida-based Photographer/Visual Artist Jonathan Brooks' Skulls Featured on the CW's The Vampire Diaries Television Series.

Miami, FL, March 25, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Skull images by award-winning Miami Photographer/Visual Artist Jonathan Brooks will be featured on The CW's hugely popular and award-winning television series The Vampire Diaries.

The season 6 episode, number 618, is titled I Could Never Love Like That, and airs April 16, 2015 at 8 pm.

"I've loved vampires since I was a kid," says Brooks. "From the books of Bram Stoker and Anne Rice, to films like the classic Dracula starring Bela Lugosi to the modern 30 Days Of Night."

He recalled the phone call he received in mid February. "Hey, we want to use some of your images on our little show The Vampire Diaries," said Season Six Art Director Rosa Palomo of Bonanza Productions. "Lucky us!"

The show will be using quite a few of his photographs and excitement is spreading. The photographer is having a viewing party for the episode at Deli Lane's Sunset Tavern in South Miami and has an exhibit called Darkroom scheduled at Pitman Photo in Pinecrest for the month of April.

Brooks' image Love Floats was just featured on the German TV primetime show "Nur die Liebe zählt" (Only Love Counts) on German SAT.1 Television, West Elm will soon be carrying Dreams from his Cloud series, and his image Over The Rainbow won Best In Show 2014 Photo Of The Year at the inaugural Miami Photo Salon during Miami's prestigious art week.

His new self-published book "The True Cuba" is available on Amazon and many of Miami's fine book stores.
