ANNE PICTURES!

I finally got my Anne Boleyn pictures uploaded! I have a ton that I love so narrowing them down to only 4 to post isn't going to cut it. Last night I dreamt that Ash and I went to Anime Expo. We're heading into this really cool convention center (not where it actually is, or was) and the weather is great and we're talking about how nice it is to be ...

Anne stuff

So I still don't have my Anne pics uploaded just yet. Normally when we do a photoshoot, I go through the photos, remove any jumble from the background, lighten it, and I'm done. But I'm having trouble with the Anne pics. Not because it's a white dress on a white background - though that doesn't really help - but because it looks SO MUCH BETTER when I don't lighten the ...

New pics!

I've actually already got these uploaded on their individual portfolio pages, but I was waiting til I had the Anne pics uploaded for making a blog post... but I want to post them now and it's my blog so I do what I want. Megara: It's not like I didn't already have nice pics of this costume (I love the ones Chase took of me at Momocon last year), but ...

Peggy photoshoot

First off, apologies for having a half-finished FAQ Friday post up here Friday/Saturday! I had scheduled it to post Friday but never got around to finishing it, and forgot to move it. I'll try to finish it up for this Friday! Friday evening Chase & I did a quick photoshoot of my Peggy costume. We started out with the standard white backdrop shots: Got some shots with my briefcase ...

Dressform Pics – Last bit

Here's the last few I didn't have uploaded yet yesterday. Anne was a bit too big to properly spread out the train. Did the best I could in the space I had. I was surprised I was able to get Johanna's shirt on the dressform at all, but somehow I did. And I'm amazed the collar piece fit. (Early on in the photoshoot process, I got frustrated with the neck ...

Dressform Pics

Here's everything so far. I'm only missing 3 actually so maybe I should have waited, but our server is down at work and I'm bored. Belldandy and Urd from 2003 and 2002, respectively. These two costumes have really stood the test of time. I knew Belldandy was in good shape since I wore her to Momocon earlier this year, but Urd has been packed in a bag for several years. The cape's a ...

Saturday craziness

So Chase was supposed to have gone out of town this weekend, and I planned on a massive clean-up of my sewing room. My sewing room was a LITTLE messy after I got back from Dragoncon, but I dumped all my boxes and bins in there when we got home and it stayed like that. Then I had to dig stuff out for GMX and MCFC, and it made it ...

New Belle Photos

A couple of weeks ago, I had planned to do an outdoor location photoshoot with Chasing Photography of my new Belle ballgown. Well, we got rained out. So, to make up for it, we did a white backdrop shoot of four of my Belle costumes! I've updated each of my portfolio pages with some of my favourites :)

Pic Upgrades

Yall have seen me mention I'm going through old pics and replacing them with newer, bigger versions. Here's an example. When I first took these in 2009, I rushed to throw them up online and didn't really take too much care with them - they were too contrasty. I also only uploaded them at 600 px tall - sometimes using it at only 500 px tall. I went through them all and took ...
