If you’re in the Australian or Melbourne cosplay communities you’ve probably learnt by now that Yeliz Cosplay is in a video game. Well A picture of her is. In an unlockable fan art section. Normally I would say this is something to be celebrated, however the photographer is not credited in game. They’ve never been credited by Yeliz, either. Photographers should be aware that Yeliz Cosplay very rarely credit’s photographers who upload photos of here, but for an image to be submitted, and used, in such a way uncredited is another level of disrespect. I wouldn’t call myself a “hater” of yeliz, but due to her attitude and behaviour she definitely does not deserve any respect. Be aware of this when you decide to photograph her, and upload it. She will save the photo and reupload it, without any links or credit of the original photographer. Why is this disrespectful? A photograper holds all legal rights to a photo.

Statement of intent.

I am a member of the Australian cosplayer community. I believe that respect should be given to be received. There is not only “common sense” etiquette in both cosplay and photography, but legal rules. I have seen many photographers and cosplayers been screwed over by selfish individuals. This is a blog to warn others about those people, so that they do not hurt anyone else. This is not about attacking anyone.
