Who forgot to post on bsky and now only has 1 DragonCon slot left? This girl. Snag the spot while it's still there!

I can accept a large group (5+), too

Just wanted to try the capture the vibes of the Shadow Cursed Lands with the moonlantern I made, and I knew Andrea's style would be perfect.

Anime Central was a convention with *no* issues. Absolutely none. All my photoshoots went smoothly and I am so excited to begin editing those. This past weekend also opened my eyes to some changes I'll be making to my photog business. No changes will be made in 2025, tho

I'd say it's the battle between photos and text, but tumblr is that way, too? There's definitely SOMETHING about this layout that makes us not want to use it as a photo-seeking app

I'm finding it so hard to manage all these social sites, too. I have a personal IG, photog IG, IG for my cats (lol), a personal bsky, this bsky, a tumblr...

as much as I enjoy bsky for brain dumps, I just don't like it for photos. I don't even seek out strictly photography on here 😅

Last day to sign up for Anime Central photoshoots! I head out to Chicago tomorrow and want to give myself time to plan 😊

I'm really curious - who still uses tumblr, and would a photography tumblr be worth it 😂 I was a tumblr girlie and other than (the original) Instagram, that was the best place for sharing images. A legit portfolio! With drafts and queueing! Maybe I should make one just for my cosplay portraiture

Two cosplayers sit on the floor in front of elaborate white doors. Their hands are touching and their legs are kicked out to the side. They wear elaborate white and purple outfits and have light blonde hair.

Monster Hunter is one of my favorite series, but I haven't been able to keep up with it much. I hope to get Wilds soon, though! In the meantime, book me for all your MonHun cosplay photoshoots

I've had it happen here and there over the years. This year just had so many already. I sure hope it's just people being people and not my work 🥲
