Pitiful creature of darkness, what kind of life have you known? God give me courage to show you, you are not alone
Sometimes the best photos happen when you aren't looking for them.

I was waiting to use the backdrops in Cosplay Central at Metrocon when I spotted this beautiful Christine Daaé setting herself up to use a different backdrop. I had to stop and ask if I could take a few photos them.

Five minutes. That's it.

I don't often get the opportunity to stop and photograph people in the halls during a convention, so this was a real treat. But sometimes you see a cosplay and immediately know you have to create something with it.

And somehow, in those few minutes, we created some of my favorite photos from Metrocon. ✨

I'm so glad I stopped you.
Have you ever had a completely spontaneous convention photo turn into one of your favorite memories? 👇

I had such a fun time with Rosie during her Lysandra session! We have fantasy, we had gorgeous sunlight, we had… Snow Leopards? 😆 nooooo though what a session that would have been!

After much deliberation between the right side of my brain and the left side of my brain the left side gave in and we added leopards so the photo! Is it perfect? No! Am I really happy with something I don’t traditionally add to a photo? Hell yes!

This pose with the pillars were screaming to have snow leopards in it and I think it adds a lot to both the character and who she is as well as the photo itself

“The fighting, the clawing, the loneliness, the FU***NG loneliness… All of it so I could rot, because the person I trusted the most gave me away to the devil!”

Karlach is one of those characters that immediately stands out, not just because of her strength, but because of her warmth and personality. She is fierce, resilient, and still incredibly full of heart despite everything she has endured.

This session was all about capturing that balance between power and personality, fire and humanity. Seeing her come to life through cosplay made the entire shoot feel dynamic from start to finish.

There is something really special about characters like Karlach. They remind you that even after everything, you can still choose to move forward with fire in your chest.
Alright, give me the real answers… Who is your canon romance and who is your guilty pleasure romance? 👇

Maybe I want someone to remember me, even only a little. Living means someone knows you and remembers you.
Frieren and Himmel have one of those stories that manages to be both beautiful and absolutely heartbreaking. Their time together was brief for Frieren, but the impact Himmel left on her lasted far beyond their years together.

For this session, my cosplayers decided to lean fully into the side of the fandom that has spent years wondering what might have been between these two. The series gives us those tiny little moments, and sometimes that is all a fandom needs to run with an idea. 😂 So we did exactly that.

Bok Tower was the perfect setting for them. There was something about the gardens, the quiet, and the timeless feeling of the location that fit their story beautifully. It felt like stepping into one of those memories Frieren might carry with her long after everyone else is gone. 💙
Frieren fans, if you could give Frieren one memory from her time with Himmel to keep forever, what would you choose? 👇

I’m going to become the best Umamusume in Japan! 🐴✨
Special Week was a new kind of character for me, but that’s one of the things I love about cosplay photography. My cosplayers are constantly introducing me to characters and worlds I might never have discovered on my own!

This was another ridiculously fun session with Bunny. They always bring me the cutest and most playful cosplays, and they are SO good at movement in front of the camera. When someone already knows how to move, play with their character, and just have fun, it lets me step back from giving constant posing direction and focus more on finding the right angles and capturing the moment.

And honestly? That can be such a nice change for my photographer brain. 😂💕

We could be free”
There is something so satisfying about seeing an artist’s design brought to life through cosplay, and this one was truly something special.

This cosplay was inspired by a very specific Rumi pin design from an artist who creates these beautiful, intricate pin illustrations. Fabrics & Fantasy took that inspiration and turned it into an incredible handmade cosplay, complete with intricate sewing, detailed beading, and so many little touches that made the final look feel like it had stepped straight out of the original artwork.

I absolutely love when cosplay goes beyond simply recreating a character and becomes its own piece of art. The amount of time, skill, and attention to detail that went into this costume was incredible, and it made photographing Rumi such a fun experience. ✨

I... followed you. It seemed to me that danger has followed you more closely as of late.
Clorinde is one of those characters who commands attention without ever needing to ask for it. Calm, confident, and always ready for a fight, there is something incredibly fun about bringing a character with that kind of presence in front of the camera.

This session was such a fun opportunity to lean into Clorinde’s strength and precision while capturing some of that quieter, watchful side of her too. There is something about a character who can walk into danger without hesitation but still keep an eye on the people around her that makes her so compelling.
Genshin fans, which character would you want watching your back when things get dangerous? 👀👇

This feeling, it's like... Like a lemon cheesecake! As the cream melts on the tip of my tongue, all my stress fades away.
My first session with Sydney was at Holmat 2025, and she was an absolute delight from the moment we met. She has this bright, joyful energy that is completely infectious, and photographing Navia with her was just as much fun as you would expect.

Navia is such a fun character to capture because she brings this wonderful mix of confidence, charm, and genuine warmth. Sydney brought all of that energy into the session, and I could not stop smiling behind the camera.

Some sessions just feel light from beginning to end, and this was definitely one of them. 💛

“We can’t fix it if we never face it what if we find a way to escape it?
We could be free”
, held at the Orange County Convention Center, always comes with it's challenges when it comes to photo sessions. Throughout one single year I attend anywhere from 3-5 conventions around the same area. Keeping every session different and unique can be on the harder side of things.

The staircase inside of the Hyatt hotel, where this photo was taken, has always been an area that I would "someday hope to use." I've always lacked the confidence to use the space. This year I made it my mission to start being intentional with where I photograph my cosplayers, which meant stretching myself with areas that I've been eyeing for years. I showed Heather the spot and we got to work. The backlighting of the staircase and the front lighting of the windows in front of them really helped create the perfect storm to capture the right photos for our K-pop star, Rumi.

The cool part about this photo is that confidence was built that day. I'm excited to use this area more.
