Jack the Ripper from Fate Apocrypha with Emily!

Shot this a while back with Emily in studio but never had a chance to get to it!

Shot against plain black seamless paper with a fog machine.

If you ever try to shoot colored fog, just remember the fog only takes the color if you aim the gelled light right at it. So you can easily have 2 different color combinations of fog if you wanted too :]

Regal style portrait with HendoArt

I love doing this style of portrait work! And canvas backdrops are amazing for things like this! Brings a lot of texture and slight variations in the way everything is lit up in the back :]

Summer vibes with Anna Akana!

How's everyone been doing! Sorry for the lack of updates this week, been battling migraines again off and on -.- Going to rush some work to get more content out for all of you guys! 

This was shot last weekend with Anna and as you can see, we used an empty pool for the location. I really like the way the images came out! Everything was shot with natural light, and in fact, it was super hot that day. I do NOT recommend shooting in a place like this on a super hot day haha, I will ne...

Another shot of Lady Maria by Manzi!

I LOVE all the textures on this cosplay, and she did an AMAZING job creating the entire thing!

Everything EXCEPT the particles were shot and done practically in camera, in studio!

Shot this all against a black seamless backdrop, with my fave dead tree placed behind her strategically so it frames well, and then of course the fog machine!

Make sure to have a light source from above if you want to achieve that glow effect coming from top down!

Widowmaker with Meevers Desu Cosplay!

Meevers did an awesome job as Widowmaker at Anime Expo! I won't have hardly any pics from this con because I literally got kicked out from every spot I tried to shoot at because a SHAWN MENDES CONCERT was happening at Staples and security was having a COOOOOW. -.-

Merch Store!

Hey guys, as stated before, I dabble in lots of creative outlets and working freelance means it's the hustle life for me! (Not just me, but everyone here at Wonderland Studios as well)

So I will post slight updates here with the new things in store, such as enamel pins, prints, etc etc that we come up with! Later down the road I will probably keep the merch stuff completely separate as to not clutter things :]

The store link if you want to take a look as here! 2019-06-29 19:19:06 +0000 UTC View Post
