A Rei Ayanami shoot


I also had great fun shooting again with David Kennedy who done the fanfastic anime fashion shoot of me. He took photos of me in my schoolgirl Rei Ayanami cosplay. We done the shoot along the docks in Dublin and it was cool getting photos in a train station like the series and in run done areas. David was a fun photography to work with and really showed eustasim while shooting, he came up with awesome, out of the box ideas for photos. He also got some pictures of me in the the bandages which I can't wait to show off. :) The weather was really cold though and it was very windy but it was worth it.

It was funny before meeting David, I was in my Rei cosplay and wearing a hoody. I was like this when going to meet David. I don't particully like walking in public while in cosplay not just that you get odd stares but you can get hassle of teenagers but as long as I am with a photographer I don't mind it and there wasn't many people around.



My Rei make up, I am kinda getting the hang of doing her eyes.





It took me a few years to get the wings at the end of the eyes like in the animes and I am still improving.

I done some creative editing with these photos. Photoshopping was something I haven't done in awhile.

My new cosplay blog

I was inspired by mechanic geisha's make up blog so I decided to create a cosplay awareness blog, educating people about cosplay like the panel Fiona and I did at Eirtakon. I will also express and share my expereince as a cosplayer giving tips on skincare and make up and will talk about how to handle cosplay drama online which I had experienced over the last few weeks. This blog will focus on the Irish convention scene and will be all about the positive.

I saw the point of setting up a new blog because this blog is my cosplay, modelling and personal blog and it is not always about cosplay so reader may find it confusing that I educate about cosplay in one post and then switch to something completely different, so it is best just to have one blog focusing on cosplay tips and tutorials and keep this blog for events, coverage and for expressing myself.

Well here is the link, hope you all enjoy it and find it helpful. :)
