It goes in to great depth and detail on how to photograph cosplayers and costumers at conventions and similar events.
Please enjoy, and share with your photography friends who might be attending conventions anytime soon!

This was really helpful even for a cosplayer like me. I tend to not be able to think of poses too well (just cause i’m a little brain dead from being at the con) or sometimes i wear a costume that limits my movement but learning things like looking in and out of the center can show different things. This was helpful! thanks!
