Being a hero is way more than facing bad guys

I am now on holidays! During which I shall be working on my editing backlog, and catching up on posting photos from shoots and conventions.
Let's go back to Supanova where I got to work with the lovely Lilium cosplay again, this time with her as Spider Gwen. Lilium is always great to work with and a natural in front of the camera.

Whilst I edit Oz Comic Con shoot's photos let's continue uploading those from Supanova.
Next up is this awesome Blue Exorcist group. I shot with them at AMC, and again at OzCC, they're a bunch of great cosplayers who make the shoots fun and lively. I'm looking forward to seeing what they have planned for their next cosplays.

Catching up on Supanova posts. This time with Eloquent Mx Loki's casual Kylo Ren. I really love the scar they did for this cosplay, and I helped with this; drawing the parody art for their shirt.
We did a quick shoot at the showgrounds, but followed it up with one at home with my sexy ring light to show off the awesome work put into their makeup and special effects.

Being smart spoils a lot of things, doesn't it?

I have been slow in posting the results of Supanova photoshoots, especially now I shall be attending Oz Comic Con. But uni is in its final weeks, so once I'm on holidays I can catch up to a regular posting schedule.

But back to Supanova shoots, and I got to work with the awesome Kibble King Cosplay! I have loved her work since I saw her Breakfast Princess cosplay at Chaoz, and have since been following for the great work and cute couple cosplays~ At Supanova they cosplayed from Hannibal, with gorgeous tailored clothing.

The Force Awakens

It's been almost a month since Supanova, and I've almost finished editing all the photoshoots I did during it (uni has had me swamped). I thought I should start uploading photos of these awesome cosplayers I got to work with. Starting with this epic group of fellow Star Wars lovers!

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)

Supanova 2015

The con season is now underway, opening last weekend with Supanova! And it was the biggest one I've ever seen.
Saturday was packed, you could barely move inside, and outside was no different. I think this sudden increase of attendees would have been due to the big name guests like Christopher Lloyd and George Takei. But Supanova had rearranged their usual set up, which helped ease the crowds.
I know a lot of table and stall holders were disappointed to learn that the celebrity signings had been moved to a separate building, as a lot of sales come from people who only come for signings but check out the stalls on the way out. But in my opinion, Supanova made the right choice in separating the celebrities from the exhibitor's hall. The exhibitor's hall, as I said before, was packed full, I can't imagine how worse it would have been with people waiting in line for signings as well.
Supanova also seems to want to grow more, with Popcultcha and EB Games having massive stall space. What this means for the artist alley, I'm not sure, but I hope they don't begin ignoring the smaller artists, because they're a core part of the con and the community.
The convention also changed up access to it. Instead of being able to hang around outside without a pass, you needed a pass to get into Supanova's area of the showgrounds. Not only did this stop people loitering without passes, but it also made it easier to enter halls as you didn't have volunteers constantly asking to see your pass.

The second day was a lot quieter. I could actually browse the stalls without being pushed along by the crowd, it wasn't unbearably hot inside and out, and I got to see some of the celebrities walking around. My only complaint about the second day was they attempted to make and entrance only, and ext only door to the exhibitor hall. I wouldn't have a problem usually, but they started doing it halfway through the day. Though they gave up quickly.

My other complaint would have to be ticket prices. I know they've upped the prices because it's technically a three-day pass, but hardly anyone goes on Friday. Nothing is set up, the only thing on Friday is buying tokens for signings. I think they need to make the weekend pass a two-day pass, and then add an extra pass for the Friday for people who want to go.

Anyway, enough of what I thought of the convention, you're here for photos!
