Cosplayers, it’s your time to shine. You’ve spent hours (let’s be real—maybe months!) perfecting that costume, from every thread to every prop. So why settle for blurry hallway con pics or phone snaps in the driveway?

Step into a full-blown portrait experience where your character gets the cinematic treatment they deserve!

Recent Highlight: At the Mid-Atlantic Regional School of Photography, I had the absolute joy of capturing some wildly talented cosplayers.  We had an epic Spider-Verse shoot (acrobatics included) the insanely creepy wife of Dracula and a Frankenstein that could charm any graveyard!

Makeup washes off, costumes fade, characters change… but pictures… They last forever. Your cosplay deserves more than a con backdrop or rushed photo-op in the hallway. Here, it’s all about you stepping into the spotlight.

Come see me and we will create a session with cinematic lighting and dynamic posing that makes your costume POP in an atmosphere that’s fun, laid-back, and creative. These sessions are ideal for:

Cosplayers building a pro portfolio

Costume creatives looking for something epic

People who just love dressing up and want cool keepsakes

So whether it’s gritty Spider-Verse lighting in a garage setting or high-end, editorial-style close-ups of your Frankenstein glow-up, lets work together to create something amazing!  I offer free consultations via zoom or in the studio- so just click here to book yours!
