I have seen many Queen of Hearts Cosplays but never has one taken my breath away as much as this one. She may look the part of the Queen of Hearts but personality wise she is not comparable. In fact, she is all Heart and it was a pleasure to have the honor to photograph her.

Our next convention is Connection (Hartford, CT), July 14-17.

I photographed this uncanny Penguin Cosplay from Batman Returns at Rose City Comic Con. I loved photographing cosplay in the Pacific Northwest during the pandemic, everyone matched their cosplays and masks perfectly!

When I saw this White Diamond Cosplay at Emerald City Comic Con my breath was taken away.  Stunning, right?  White Diamond is from the show Steven Universe.

The longer I work on the Cosplay 50 Project the more I notice different types of Cosplayers that come into my studio. I have to imagine it’s a bit intimidating when they walk in to see mountains of photo gear, assistants, and maybe a bit of frenetic energy. The majority of Cosplayers that I photograph are every day people with little modeling experience. Many even admit to me they have never even had a professional photo taken of them before.

This young Freddie Mercury Cosplayer was new to the Cosplay/convention world. He came into my room and nailed the character to a point that we both gasped when we saw the image preview on the back of the camera. These “newbies” never cease to amaze me. It’s like they are coming home to a world they were meant to be in. It is part of the reason that I do this project. I feel the Comic Con world/Cosplay world is inclusive, welcoming, and kind to all who enter; a great place to be in current times.

Happy Birthday to Sean, the best assistant a girl could ever have!!!

Assistant roles are evolving at conventions now…. watch out Sue Wolfe and Rhonda Morris! Sean Montgomery, who has worked with me since 2017, was photographed at Florida Supercon. Avi Ram (Season 2 Skin Wars) needed a model, and Sean jumped at the opportunity. Avi painted him as “Venompool” a combination of Deadpool and Venom. It took only 3 hours to paint! Sean really embraces cosplay culture and took easily to posing for photographs, both for me and for everyone who stopped him for one. It was quite entertaining later in the day when he came back to assist. Thanks so much Sean! You have always been an extreme pleasure to work with, and have helped and put up with a lot of the situations (both good and bad) that con life throws at us! It was so fun to have you in front of the camera for the first time (and hopefully not last).

I have to admit that I am hooked on the Cosplay/body paint combinations that we photographed at Florida Supercon! This Hellboy Cosplay fit so well on the model, Carlos Lopez. He really brought this character to life alongside the artist from earlier posts, Avi Ram (Season 2 Skin Wars), who never ceases to amaze me with his work. This group of individuals is so fun to be around. Carlos Lopez (Model) can be found on Instagram at elixir__g. Avi Ram (Artist) can be found on on Instagram as airbrushhero.
