Alone in a Photograph

I used to write and draw the online comic “Alone in a Crowd.” Now I am an amateur photographer looking to practice my skills, learn more, and see where it takes me. Variety photography from Temi!

It's shrine maiden day at KFP!

Do you know where the power lies?

Thirsty for some boba tea?

..........GET IT!!?? 🤣 (reupload of a DragonCon 2025 con floor photo I took, now in better quality)

To this DragonCon cosplayer: I want to say: 1.) You look amazing! 2.) Thank you! These are some of my favorite cosplay photos I’ve ever taken. I was so delighted with how the lighting turned out!

Camera: Canon EOS R10, 50 mm lens

Got some badge ribbons made to hand out at DragonCon and any other con I happen to make my way to! Hopefully this will allow the cosplayers I take photos of to find the pics afterwards (annnnd if I could grow my audience little by little that would certainly be nice)

Trying my hand at some liminal photography. I feel like the "liminal" descriptor means a little bit different things to different people, and all are valid. I'm using the more loose end of the term here, I think. How do these shots make YOU feel?

You have to HAND it to me, this is a good photo!

..........I'll show myself out.

Everything in this photo is on location. I came across a sculpture of various designs cut into plates of metalwork, and I had the idea to try this shot.

Some shots from the DragonCon 2025 Queer Joy in Cosplay group photoshoot, now in better quality!

I regretfully only got these few photos, since I didn’t realize the photoshoot was happening and only stumbled upon it when I showed up early for the Locked Tombfoolery group photoshoot. It’s a shame I didn’t get to take more photos because you all looked wonderful and ARE wonderful! 💚🤍💜 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Maybe this year if the photoshoot happens again I can plan for it and show up for the whole thing. Here’s hoping!

Blessed Mother Mary

Another shot I got during a photo excursion I took yesterday, walking around one of the stops I made, Ender’s Island in Mystic, CT.

To get this shot how I wanted I had to lay on my back in the grass and look up with the camera. I’m glad no one walked at the time, I’m sure I looked fairly silly. But with any luck I put a smile on Mother Mary’s face 💚

It was her!

“She said, ‘What is this internet?’ And he said, ‘See, I did make a utopia.’”

And now the last of the newly fixed-up Locked Tombfoolery Group Photoshoot from DragonCon 2025! One of my favorite memories of the con last year. It was great to really try out my photography skills on such amazing cosplays.

If any of you cosplayers in these photos happen to find these (and I hope you do!), 1.) you all are so talented and cool! And 2.) Please say hi, I’d love to tag you for credit.

“Well, I tried, and therefore no one should criticize me.”

Continuing with the parade of newly touched-up photos from the Locked Tombfoolery group photoshoot at DragonCon 2025!

My applause to all the cosplayers who showed up for this!
