I'm now booking photoshoots for Katsucon!

If there’s anyone looking for a photographer during Katsucon, I will be available to do photoshoots! My camera is a Canon Eos 60D and I’m fine with doing indoor and/or outdoor shots. While not a requirement, already having photo ideas would help speed the initial process along and in case I’m not familiar with the series you’re cosplaying from.

Prices are based on number of people. 

-Group Shoot (four-six people) is $40. Not for EACH person. It’s just forty dollars. Additional people after the 6th person, I will ask $5 per additional person. -Personal Shoot: $15 For one person. $25 With 2-3 People groups.

At max, these shoots will last probably for half an hour to an hour depending on the size of the group. If you want more time with me, it is $5 every extra half hour. You will be asked to sign a model release form.

As for my work process, I will usually post around 5-7 final photos for each shoot. I will email you with a file of the photos before publishing them so that you may preview them first. Afterwards, I will generally post a few on Facebook.

Current available slots: 4 I will be available to shoot anytime between 10AM-6PM each day. 

If interested, use the Message feature on Tumblr or email me at noletters[at]outlook[dot]com if you have any questions and we can schedule a time and location.
