Hi!  My name is Keith and I photograph cosplayers and anime figure.  Sad my hobbies are!  If you're a cosplayer that is interested in working with me, I'm based in the New York-New Jersey-Philadelphia region should you want to hit me up.

Thanksgiving killed me as I was in charge of the steaks with marrow butter, seafood chowder, and the Turkey this year. Now I have to finish working on the last of the unfinished photoshoots before the year ends. Anyway, here's a photo from a shoot that I have never posted before. It was sitting in my hard drive for 5 years gathering... dust? Cosplayer: cosaru as Eli Ayase Source: Love Live!

Remember when they changed the animation style for Pokemon when Sun and Moon came out? I thought it was the most refreshing change that was made to a series that felt stale and I decided to stick around. Figure: Mallow and Steenee - G.E.M.

10-years and 3-days ago. I've wanted to do more location shoots but the lack of them is one reason I may be retiring from cosplay photography soon. But ultimately, I retire when Tom Brady retires.
