I have this weird thing about my photography work and not too sure if other are like this, I don’t like looking at my own work…..I’ve taken in the past, let me explain.
I know other photographers like to go back on their old work and improve or test a new technique on a photo. But for me, I kinda have two feelings about looking at my old work. When I schedule my daily photos of my own work on Facebook/Twitter, I usually wait about three months from taking the photos to posting it online. When I view my photos and mostly say to myself “what was I thinking when I took this photo!”, cause I always seem to learn something new, even small details, editing techniques, wished that I have learnt that technique sooner and processed that photo in a different way.
Sometime the learning process is ever growing and processing even during editing a photo as I contact the cosplayer/model asking them if this is ok?, most say it great but do get from time to time they would ask for an improvement of some sort like, changing eye colour, remove fray hair, remove tan lines, making the skin more orange (this one is more specific cases) which I did consider at the time, so learn the skill to make the necessary changes, but I know I should have learnt these changes sooner but that how I work and learn.
But on the other hand, I like that at that time of taking the photo and editing it, that was the height on for skills and couldn’t do any better with the skills I have. It’s a way to track my improvement in my photos over the past months and years and I can see it.
I do worry that I’m not improving myself, I would hate to think that I am happy with with skills I have and be content with what I have. I hope I never say to myself, “I happy with what I’ve got, I’ll just stop.”. I would want to be always learning and doing.

The time has come and you can book your slot with me. Please read the instructions carefully.
Please pick which day, and time slot and detail me the cosplay you’d like me to shoot.
Please only book with me if you know what cosplay you want to shoot with me. If you do not declare your cosplay, I will cancel the appointment
Pick a time that you can reasonably get to me. If on the day you are running late, I won’t be able to reschedule and you will forfeit your time slot as I do not want a knock-on effect of running late for my other appointments.
If you pick more than one slot, I can choose which cosplay I like to shoot. This isn’t a reflection on your cosplay but I want to give everyone a chance to shoot with me at least once over the weekend.
Last thing, I won’t be accepting any group shoots as they affect my anxiety and can cause stress on me.
Please note: I am not accepting any group shoots. I’ll consider a duo shoot.
Should there be slots available after the first round, I’ll allow people to book me up for a second slot.
If you miss out on a slot, do not worry, I’ll be at the event all three days so if you spot me, do come and stop me and we can get a quick photo together.
Good luck and hopefully I’ll see you at Comic-Con.

Cosplayer: kuruvata / Photo drewcoremas
Toad is a timeless character. Both young and old love them, Toad was such a scene stealer in the almost recent Super Mario Bros Movie, and is one of the best characters to play/interact with in the game.
The costume is mostly made out of foam padding and felt fabric. Two materials I had never worked with before. The most challenging part is trying to glue everything down, make it stick, and keep its shape!
Almost everyone recognized Toad at New York Comic Con. I could barely get a few feet forward before getting asked for pictures. It was quite challenging and the inside does get hot despite the two fans I had inside.
My cosplay origin story started back in 2015 when a close friend invited me to my very first New York Comic Con. I had built a Bane costume out of cardboard and tubing. After seeing all the intricate cosplayers in attendance, I was inspired to also build my own.
This story first appeared Cosplay In America and if you want to share a “Cosplay Stories” to be shared here on this website, full details can be found here.
