Do you take a group of people? Most of your samples are solo only.

[Death_Note_Matt]

Oh my god I would love the Firday spot at 5:00pm ^_^ I am free at that time.

[openhappy]

Yes. I take groups as well. If your group is too big, multiple slots will be allocated to you. In fact, I have one group already. All the members can have his/her pictures taken. Then, combination of group picture will follow. Thx :)

[openhappy]

death_note_matt, 5pm is yours. Just PM you, please reply :)

[openhappy]

A few questions come in and ask what if I cannot find anyone to sign the release form (if I am under 18) ...

Well, if you really cannot find anyone to sign it, I can waive the release form for you. After that, we will go back to the normal public editorial rule. In other words, I will only post your picture on openhappy.com. And I will take the pictures off if you want me to do so. Sound simple?

:)

[Death_Note_Matt]

Yeay I am getting a Photo shoot XD

[openhappy]

I created more time slots towards the end of the day :)

[heeroyuy135]

So many photoshoot offers, so little time...

I'll have to think on it.

[openhappy]

HeeroYuy135,

It will be fun. The shoot is free and you get all the good pictures :)  Also, a normal shoot should only take about 15 min or so. Just PM me to pick a time. Thx!

[Kimiko]

Aww if you were doing photoshoots on other days, I'd be interested, but Friday will be hard for me.

[openhappy]

Actually, I am thinking about opening some slots in late Sat say around 5:30pm or so. Will you be interested?

[questionette]

Heck, if she's not up for it saturday at 530...I AM!! lol

[openhappy]

[californiacos]

How many pictures do you plan to take per session, for a solo cosplay?

[openhappy]

I actually don't really have a limit. I have 1 8G card and 2 2G cards. It really depends on the mood of the cosplayer. I can take as many as you want. Also, we can do some experimental shoots with different exposure / iso / shaking, etc. What is your expectation? 

[openhappy]

Kimiko and californiacos,

Please PM me or reply to this post, so I can setup the time slot for you. Thx.

[californiacos]

Oh, I'm your 3:00. XD. I was just wondering what to expect my first private photoshoot. Super excited. Hope you enjoy the American cosplay, it's quite good, if I may judge myself.

[Kimiko]

Thanks! I sent you an email ^^

[openhappy]
