While at AZ, we wanted to take advantage of the new venue and get some really nice shots of our respective new costumes in front of the fountain and stairs.

Waverley Place is an old, abandoned open-air shopping center near to us, and one of our favourite hang-outs. It is also wonderful for Bleach photoshooting. I wanted some more shots of my blue dress for Ru, so Kan-chan and I decided to fix up a casual shoot and she picked out a cute outfit for Orihime ( Read more... )

I helped my friend Lori Hardee make her Sailor Pluto costume for AZ this year. While the only part that I did myself was the boot covers, she did a fantastic job on the rest of it. We took some lovely shots of the finished project in her backyard.

Wow, and here I thought I'd lost these pics. XD

The first kimono that I ever made, out of silk brocade, I wore as Hyuuga Hinata. Kan-chan and I went out to Southpointe mall and decided to do an impromptu photoshoot there.

When Lithe-Fider agreed to be Kan-chan's Orochimaru, I was drafted to make the costume ( Read more... )

Kan-chan fell in love with the new filler character in Naruto, and wanted to be the first person to cosplay her. Needless to say, she makes a lovely Guren ( Read more... )

Katsucon this year was held in the same hotel that normally hosts AUSA. While the hotel was way too small for Katsu's needs, there was still a wonderful little outdoor mezzanine where we took some neat outdoor shots.
