Related:I'm so happy with how this shoot turned out I'm uploading a version that I haven't brought into Photoshop, scary!
I'm really proud of this shoot and have been wanting to shoot *AmenoKitarou 's Siegfried ever since I learnt that he was making it.
I've shot so much over the last few days since arriving in Sydney and this was the most challenging and uncomfortable! We shot this just before 5pm in torrential rain. Everyone was drenched through but it was so amazing to do this shoot that it didn't matter!!

Stunning color and costume! I'm really impressed! Water shots can be daunting, and it's obvious how much work went into this! Congratulations on successfully completing this shot!

Thanks, it was a lot of work and alot of discomfort for all involved!! ^__^

Oh, I absolutely believe that. I can't imagine how long it took to get everything and everyone dry again, but what does it matter? That's what it takes for shots like this!

Have to tell you that the lighting and the setting really made Siegfried amazing in this

A new top level of cosplay photography has been reached, I think

This. This so much.
I'd never felt so satisfied after a shoot before. Even though it was the most unpleasant weather to work with!

haha but with photos like this as a result, anyone would think you'd planned the rain too!! I can't wait to see more of you and Rachel's efforts together in the future, you really complement each other as cosplayer and photographer- anyone could see that instantly looking at the set from this shoot

mmmm *taps nose*
That rain was actually the hydro pump from a fire engine we hired.... I wonder...

lol!!!! Can't wait to see what you guys have in mind for the next water shoot >oπ: 0 β©: 0
Yeh Rachel and I mesh really well creatively. She has the technique to pull off all my crazy ass ideas. And she's really patient and flexible for me to direct her as well as her directing me.
I was being flash assistant for her at someone else's shoot too and she really embraced some of my ideas and let me direct her for a few shots.
Definitely looking forward to doing more with her.

I like your stuff and all and I can see all the cosplay people going apeshit but I'm not really feeling this shot
I'll look forward to the others though
Looked like a fun shoot

Of course. I've never taken any opinion as truth or fact.
And there there is no doubt about her skill.
That's why I was saying it's probably the concept of the composition that made you "not feel" the shot, which ultimately were my concepts~
It was fun shoot beyond anything I've shot before.

I guess that's probably my bad. This shoot was all my concept. I wanted to recreate my Madman Finals stage setting.
I requested and Rachel delivered. That's the most any photographer can do.

Yea man I dont doubt her skill or anything... And remember that this is just my opinion. I'm not the truth or a fact
I do hope to see more since the idea is quite cool

This needs a Nightmare at the red-lighted end...

I know right????? Too bad none of my friends want to make Nightmare because he is so ugly DX
π: 0 β©: 1
Wut, ugly? You could always go for the SC2 version of Nightmare, but since that is technically Siegfriend, it would probably cause an exsistential headache, at least.
π: 0 β©: 1
nono I don;t think he's ugly, but all my friends do...
I might make him one day just to complete this collection haha!

Beautiful photo, such a breathtaking atmosphere. Love the use of warm and cool hues, I have the up most respect for people, especially photographers who can think creatively and pull off this kind of rawness.

Was already a big fan of your work

Wow!! This is absolutely amazing!! You guys are crazy for shooting in the rain but the results are fantastic!

Okay.... still hyperventilating, but here is the real comment lolol~
I'm so amazed at how perfectly you recreated what was in my head. I don't think I ever worked with a photographer who was on such a similar wavelength as me with so much patience!!
This whole shoot was incredible! I had my doubts about that fountain location right up until we took the first several shots~ HNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!
This is why I love cosplay~ Mental image into reality achieved...
Forever admiring your work and diligence!
