I am happy to share that I’ll be at MCM London in October 2026, from 23rd to 25th October, all three days of the event. I’ll be there with my camera, taking photos, recording videos, and streaming live from the event in and around the complex, showcasing what you can see over the weekend. If you’d like photos from me at the event, you can book me starting Monday, September 28th, at 6 pm. However, I need to share an important update about my schedule. As for the previous schedule I released, I will only be bookable on Friday, 23rd October and Sunday, 25th October. Each bookable slot is 30 minutes long, and we may not take all that time to take photos. The 30-minute timeframe allows me to fit as many cosplayers as possible to shoot with and also allows cosplayers to spend time with other photographers/videographers or spend time at the event shopping, attending or doing another aspect of the event. There are other conditions I want to share when considering booking a slot with me. 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’d 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.  If we have taken photos together before, please choose a character or cosplay we haven’t shot yet. Only cosplayers who are 18 years of age or older I am not accepting any group shoots. I’ll consider a duo shoot. I’ll share a link to my booking schedule on my social media pages and website, so please keep an eye out. If you have any questions about my schedule, please don’t hesitate to contact me on my social media DMs. For more cosplay photos, visit our BSky, Instagram, Threads, Facebook and Twitter pages Bluesky Instagram Threads Facebook TikTok Patreon Tumblr YouTube WordPress Twitter Like this:Like Loading… […] Read more…
