Arakawa Under the Bridge

         This was one of those couples that I was not used to seeing.  I really had a hard time recognizing who they were.  It was one of those deals, where I didn't even know a starting point on my brain to scratch.  If you haven't read the manga, or seen the anime/live action, I would recommend it.  It is quite funny, although if the characters in it are apparently not that memorable.

          These two are Kou Ichinomiya and Maria.  They live under a bridge in the Arakawa district of Tokyo.  Thus the title of the anime.  Hope you enjoy the photos!

Jill Valentine

I cannot believe that I have not posted these photos yet.  They were done so long ago!  This model is Liz "Dead Pepper", she did the Hanekawa Tsubasa from Bakemonogatari (Monster Story) as well.  Liz is so great to work with.  She was extremely patient as well.  This site for the photos was not the most strobe friendly.  The windows were just too brutal.  Liz just hung around whilst I fiddled around with the lighting for what seemed days.  Thanks LIZ!  Support her and check out her Deviant Art page!

If you cannot tell, the unit that is attached to her chest lights up!  The costume was just so well done!  Such an awesome seamstress!  Well done Liz!  I hope to shoot with you again soon.  Sorry about the wait!

Lineage II

          Again, it has been far too long since my last post.  I have just been so busy with a recent job change, family vacation on the east coast, and moving from the suburbs to the city.  That last one being a huge deal, because I still do not have internet where I am currently residing.  Although, it does help with the fact that I am still learning what to do at work, and the amount of books that I am reading is increasing.

          I have just a few more of the Fanime 2012 photos to post.  Also, I am trying to get more camera time and more photos to post, but have been too busy lately.  Lately, I have been looking for locations that can be shot at while now living in SF.  There are plenty, and come summer 2013, I hope to have plenty of models to shoot.  For now though, here are some ladies costuming characters from the lineage series.  Hope you like them.
