5 Tips to getting good event photos of your Cosplay

Hi guys! today I’m going to share some tips on getting good cosplay photographs at Conventions/Events. In this scenario I’m talking specifically about photographs that will be taken by random people in a normal convention scenario and not a pre-planned private Photo shoot.

 

 

Some of the tips are to  be done before the event while some are things to do during the event. They are not hard and fast rules that must be followed but general suggestion I would give based on so many years of taking photographs at events. These are the things I want to tell some cosplayers ahha.

How I made Elsa (FROZEN)'s costume

This is probably one of my more agonising costume yet (I think I have a knack for calling every new costume an agoniser lol) for the sheer fact that it is so different from most if not all of my past cosplays.

 

For Elsa, I was forced to work out of my comfort perimeter and explore new materials and new techniques. They are mostly stuffs many other cosplayers already know but because I am always so behind on matters, I've only just come to learn. I am such a cosplay noob ^/////^;;

 

 

 

Like all my past "How I made _____ costume" blog entries, I am here to share my personal tips and WIP photographs on how I made my Elsa costume. The focus is to help anyone out there who wants to make an Elsa costume, kick-start and conceptualize their own crafting adventure. This will not be a full blown step-by-step tutorial but a mere walk through.
