safety_caesars and I are tossing around the idea of going into cosplay photography together. For any of you who doubt, we're both experienced photographers; I've shot portraits and weddings and have the equipment (and the minor) (and the darkroom and enlarger) to prove it (my photography peen stays hidden, but it is there), and Becky is much the same. We work pretty well as a team and I think it would be awesome to have two people shooting portraits/scenes -- double the photos in the same amount of time, someone to hold equipment for the other when needed, PLUS two different styles so there's something for everyone. We'd even stay (mostly) sober!

We'd like to start off small, because we still want to con and cosplay, instead of suddenly filling our time with 1,000 ridiculous photo shoots. But I know a lot of you plan cosplays, even little silly ones, so I'm just throwing it out there.

(PS: It would totally get us to come to more cons (ACEN?) just fyi.)

Poor Shane!!!

[ifotismeni]

he can be a sabin/brother hybrid!!! sabin hair + brother tattoo + sabin shirt + sabin claws + brother pants... and a blitzball.

[darcenciel.livejournal.com]

Okay this is like the most awesome idea ever, except most of Sabin's costume no longer exists XDDDDD because I cut up the wig to make Brother and stole other bits to make other things.

[ifotismeni]

hahah so brother hair + sabin claws + brother pants with tattoo but sabin belt?
XD

KEKEK

[ifotismeni]

also? neither of us will be able to walk anywhere. we might have to be transported in a palanquin or something *shiva diva*

[darcenciel.livejournal.com]

Like Hotohori in Fushigi Yuugi?

We need Emily to come with her chocobo costume, and then she can carry us.

[ifotismeni]

also good thing i didn't get rid of my wig xDDD

[darcenciel.livejournal.com]

hahaha yeah after I calmed down from Otakon, I'm now glad I saved most of my stuff, even the fingernails (which are all stuck together in a clump in the box, I'm sure)

I'll have to remake the bikini and bra and ice, but I wasn't happy with the bikini and bra to begin with, and the ice takes like 5 minutes to make.

there will be so much magic in this photoshoot. VERY LITERALLY. i mean shiva's an esper and kefka's A GOD so it's like kefka went ahead a few games to get an esper from a different universe for shits and giggles just 'cause he can.

[darcenciel.livejournal.com]
