Description Zach as Ezio from Assassin's Creed.

Ohayocon 2011

Location: North Market

Ohayocon was a very gear-heavy con with lots of pre-planning. Two strobes, two flash stands, carbon-based stands, sync cords, reflector, gels, my whole kit. I felt like a camel!

This shot used absolutely none of them. And it's one of my favorites.

Basically, I spotted the floor, went "Oooooh!" and threw Zach in front of the wall. The flashes blew out the colors, so they got cut. There was more than enough available light to make the black and yellows pop.

Being spontaneous is a good instinct to have!

(Don't worry, many shiny pictures were also taken. More of them later!)

Thanks!

(And I KNOW! I'm like, gee, I think I managed to find everyone, even the people I didn't schedule shoots with - Oh no! Luna! T_T

I was shooting in a corner behind the atrium stairs most of con, so I'm sure we passed one another. Darn it!)

Yup, that's Zach. His first time cosplaying, and his commissioner did a great job!

It's amazing what available light can bring to a photo! I love it! Was this taken in the parking garage?

Thanks! I'm really trying to remember ALL my light options, and not get tied to strobes.

It was taken in the North Market, actually, in a dining room on the second floor. I wouldn't have even GOTTEN this shot if people weren't insisting I stay for ice cream, so thanks to my bossy... er, loving friends.
