Two weeks until FanimeCon! Oh crap, that’s way too soon!
Can’t wait, actually. Just picked up a new lens that I’m looking forward to using, and of course I always enjoy doing shoots in general. I’ll be around for the whole con, so if you want to shoot or anything, feel free to drop me a line through email, dA, Twitter, or whatever and we’ll set something up, or maybe I’ll just run into some of you readers around the con.
While you guys are at Fanime, swing by the Artist Alley and check out Ejen Chuang’s booth. He’s a photographer who spent 2009 traveling to conventions all over the US to photograph cosplayers, and he’s turned them into a very cool book called “Cosplay in America”, which he’ll be selling at the con.
Oh, yeah… OTACOOL 2! I ended up getting two pictures in the book. Maridah’s Saber is on the front cover and is the title page for the “worldwide cosplayers” section, and DayDreamerNessa’s Emeraldas is on the back cover and in the book. I’ll be the first one to admit that it’s the cosplayers’ awesome work and not my photos that got them in there, but it still feels cool to see my cosplay stuff published, and the printer did a great job, the photos in the book (that includes everybody’s, not just mine) are reproduced beautifully.
