Title: Photographer Seeking Cosplayers *FREE PhotoShoots*
Post by: Cole on May 12, 2009, 09:32:19 PM
I recently got into Cosplay photography due to friends always cosplaying (go figure huh? XD).  I'm looking to improve on my photography skills, so I'd like to put up an offer to locals and semi-locals between Solano County and Sacramento.  I will also be at FAnime, Anime Expo, and SacAnime so this will apply to both cons.

The Offer:
FREE - One (1) Hour Photoshoot Sessions for individuals or groups (up to five (5) people).

Photo Samples:

http://nikkiecole.deviantart.com/gallery/#Cosplayer-Photo-Shots (http://nikkiecole.deviantart.com/gallery/#Cosplayer-Photo-Shots)

**NOTES**
1.) You will need to provide your flash drive so I can upload the pics to it directly from a friends laptop; otherwise it may take a while to get the pics to you.
2.) You will need to find my Artist Alley table in order to check in with me.  If things stay the same I should be at table T20.  If anything changes, look for my Pikachu Print (http://nikkiecole.deviantart.com/art/Surfing-Pikachu-83902194).

bumping back to front page (saw someone else doing photoshoots doing it, so I'm assuming it's allowed)

Hi! ;D  I'm interested in one of your photoshoots.

Can I choose the 8:30pm - 9:30pm slot on Friday?  It'll just be me, and I'll be cosplaying as Duo Maxwell (Gundam Wing).

Also, I'm assuming I should check in with you before 8:00pm that day?  (Since the Artist Alley closes at 8pm.)  Sorry if that was a dumb question. XD;;  Just making sure!

Thanks for your time!  I appreciate it.

Let me know if you need any more information. ^^

Yes, you will need to check in with me at the Artist Alley.  Supposedly I'm table T20, but it that gets changed, ask a few artists (or maybe staff?) if they know where Nikkiecole is.  I'm currently working on a sign but it's not finished yet so I can't post it.  It'll be of my OC and she'll be holding two plushies, Ichigo and InuYasha.  she has a strawberry barrette in her hair as well and is in a dress.

Um, I can't really do 2 shoots at once, could you maybe take the 9p-10p slot?

Okay.  I'll sign you up.  I plan on getting to the con as early as possible.  I'll be staying at the Crowne Plaza, so I'll be able to meet you in front of the convention center. =3

Someone else has already requested it but I can fit you in the 2nd Friday slot if you'd like? ^^; (or is Sat better for you?)

Okay, thanks. :3  I'll look for your sign if I can't find the table.  Thanks for the info!
