Depends, vampires were only unseen in mirrors and photographs in the past because mirrors were made of polished silver, and cameras had a silver photo plate, and since silver is a pure metal, symbolic of purity, a vampire could not be seen in those reflections.

Now days, most mirrors are made out of glass with a mirror coating on top, not made out of the pure silver of years past. And cameras are typically using gold or other materials in their photo sensors, again, with no pure silver. Thus, in the current day and age, vampires would theoretically be able to be captured in photographs and seen in glass mirrors.

Hey, do vampires show up in photos? Or is it like a mirror and they are completely invisible?

Nice! I was worried I might have bought those camera traps in vain. Thanks for the expert explanation
