There were no sightings of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart or Taylor Lautner this weekend in Arlington, but Twi-hards descended on the city nonetheless for the official Twilight Convention at the Sheraton National Hotel.

Actor Chaske Spencer, who plays werewolf Sam Uley in the Twilight movie franchise, and other actors from the movie participated in question and answer sessions with fans who attended. 

Attendees also had the opportunity to purchase autographs and photo sessions with the stars. There was a live auction for movie memorabilia and screenings of footage from past conventions.
