Slippery Photography: Supanova 2016

This past weekend saw the start of Victoria's convention season with Supanova!
This year I opened up bookings for 30 minute shoots for the first time. I really enjoyed this set up; it allowed me to photograph some awesome cosplayers more creatively and thoroughly than just con floor photos. It also let these cosplayers get great photos of their cosplays; I know how much effort people put into their cosplays for a con, but they're not always able to do photoshoots outside of events.

Because of these shoots, I didn't get much time to take in much of the convention, but I still had a good time. Supanova once again blocked off a section of the show grounds. This is a feature that I do like; it means you can go into the buildings a lot quicker and easier as the process isn't slowed down by getting out our wristband and making sure the person can see it. They also separated the celebrity photos/signings from exhibitor's hall, which last year made exhibitor's nervous but I think greatly helped with crowds this year. Saturday was packed, the busiest I have ever seen it and if you had the celebrity lines in the exhibitor's hall it would have been chaotic. The crowd grew worse with the weather, when rain began people would try to pack into the hall, leaving little space to move. In comparison Sunday was extremely quiet, you could move around the exhibitor's hall comfortably all day. I'm not sure why this was the case, but it was interesting.

Like I said, I didn't get to see much more of the convention, so I will move on to why you're here: Photos!

Coslayers, if you see yourself here, please let me know so I can add your credit. Also please let me know if you have trouble saving these photos (some people can and some people can't)
