Megacon Birmingham 2022

My First Con as a Photographer

What a weekend! I met so many incredible and talented people here, and all of them were so lovely!

@moomei_cos as the Bunny Hero Miruko from “My Hero Academia”

This con taught me a lot about cosplay photography, not just from experience but also from some fantastic photographers also attending the event. I’ve also learned some limitations of my current gear, which might sound like a bad thing but actually is incredibly useful to know. It allows me to get really creative with the limitations I have since, according to my favorite saying, “limitation breeds innovation”.

@ivarsorrows_ as Tengen of “Demon Slayer”

I already can’t wait for the next one, which will be MCM London May 2022. I’m going to be a lot more on it with getting shoots, since I know much more what to expect this time round.

@woahitsmelon as Hu Tao of “Genshin Impact”
