Title: [Photos UP] Still Offering Free Photoshoots
Post by: The-O on May 16, 2008, 01:25:00 PM
Our photographer, Troy Leong will be doing photoshoots this year.
Here's a sample shot of what he did from last year's Fanime.

(https://forums.fanime.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Ft-ono.net%2Fgallery%2Falbums%2Fuserpics%2Fnormal_DSC_0009.jpg&hash=c802d495a469bd355c800f78afbf922d665c2580)

Feel free to reply to this post (or PM me) and we can work something out timewise if you're interested.  :D

UPDATES
We would like to use select copies from any of the photoshoots for portfolio purposes, but if user requests them to be private we will not publish them.
Most likely they will be done on Saturday morning, Sunday morning/afternoon so it doesn't interfere with any major events/panels.


We are closing our photoshoot slots for now, while we are working out the times. Everyone that has posted prior to this will be scheduled. We might still have spots afterwards, so if you are still interested, please either PM me or leave a message here.

I'm that photographer that The-o has posted about.
If anyone wishes to contact me about getting their photo taken, please... Don't hesitate to email me or The-o, my webmaster.

Cosplayers of all kinds and types... Please, don't hesitate to alert us if you wish to have your photo taken. This is a free photoshoot as well, so don't worry about compensating us. We're doing this year's photoshoot for the fans, so that means come one come all for a free photoshoot. Give us your email address and we'll send you a copy of the photo, of no charge.

If you have any questions for my webmaster or myself, please... We welcome them.

Me and my friend are interested in a photoshoot for Sunday afternoon. (the time can be changed if we need it to)

We will be cosplaying Rinoa and Squall in their SeeD Ball dress. Can you get us a photoshoot? ^_^

I'd like a free photoshoot.  Just for starters, I won't be there on Friday, and I'll probably be leaving early on Monday, so Saturday and Sunday are your best bets.

Quick Update

We are "closing" our photoshoot slots for now, while we are working out the times. Everyone that has posted prior to this will be scheduled. We might still have spots afterwards, so if you are still interested, please either PM me or leave a message here.

Each photoshoot varies in time, but we would ideally prefer 30 minutes time intervals for each photoshoot, so be prompt!

We would like to start the shoots as soon as possible.
Have some locations in mind ahead of time, we'll do our best to help you pick places.

Obviously I'm late. >>;

Anyway, if you decide you have any slots open, my friend and I would be interested. Of course, since I'm late it's cool if there aren't any left, this is my first year cosplaying and staying over night, so I'm very overwhelmed right now. @_@;;

Hey! I was wondering if you still had any slots left open (possibly on Saturday morning..)? I realize this post is.. a wee bit late, and if there are none left, that's fine~

Please let me know what cosplay the shoots will be for, and possible locations or backgrounds. A broad idea will at least give us an idea in helping you chose a location.
Locations should be on or near the convention, no more than a few blocks around the surrounding area.

Last minute update,

I have mostly everyone's contact number. I will be contacting each of you individually to confirm your scheduled shoot.

For those who have asked, I'll be walking around carrying a metallic blue clipboard.  ;D

I apologize to everyone on Sunday, Troy our Chief Photographer injured himself on Friday night and went home on Saturday.
Since I had already confirmed with everyone for their photoshoot on Saturday, I filled in and took those photos. I'll have a few samples of how they turned out as soon as I have access to a CF card reader.

No, I have not forgotten you guys. Dealing with over 1500 photos at the moment.  :'(
Again, I apologize for the photoshoots, my skill is not on par with our Chief Photographer.
Here's a resized sample from one of the shoots I took:
