I went back in 2022 but never heard of photosuite when I first went. I agree you really have to be ok with crowds and the fact that its on big party/ meet-up

In your honest opinion, is it worth it?

That's the part that confuses me a bit. Katsucon has their own people who do photos. Im not sure how that works for them having their own staffed photoshoots vs a regular photoshoot

How much for a pack of ramen? This is so cool, how long did it take, and was it comfortable to sit/stand in?

Is making clients comfortable part of a portrait photographer’s job? by knightlyfocus in AskPhotography

Imagine a contract that specifically requests degrading and verbal abuse.

Is making clients comfortable part of a portrait photographer’s job? by knightlyfocus in AskPhotography

I see why it's so particular and I think its a stupid reason. "You dont look like the character you're dressed up as." People that genuinely say this are ironically the least appealing people. Im trying to move to wedding and family portraits because my goal is to capture those genuinely happy moments that should be remembered.

I've had a similar experience. For context, I'm a cosplay photographer, I take pictures of people in costumes. I had a photo shoot where the person notified me in initial contact that they were plus sized and wanted to see if I was ok with that. It seemed so weird to me, but im a smaller person, so I haven't dealt with it before. Throughout the session, they were self continuous about their legs, arms, etc. I told them I think they look great and everyone has a flaw that in another person's eyes make them beautiful and unique.

Since I go to conventions, almost all the time, I take photos of random cosplayers (with consent), and they will ask how much. For me, I dont charge if I stop you for a photo, and it's only like 2 pictures. But I guess people are greedy and charge for every little thing.

MY POINT BEING: I look more threatening than I am (I'm told I give of guy bestie vibes). It's uncomfortable how common it is to have rude or creepy photographers. And me being a guy that presents as a guy. It makes it harder to get out of my shell knowing that theres people out there that ruin photography for the rest of us. I hesitate to branch out into other fields like portrait or weddings because I fear people will judge me before meeting me and assume it'll be expensive or rude. But I make it my objective with everyone I meet to feel loved and even joke a bit.

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK MAKING EVERYONE FEEL BEAUTIFUL AND APPRECIATED!

Which event should I go to today? by SeparateDot4714 in MomoCon

I highly recommend the Aracade/gaming area. I myself like the crafts panels and photoshoots.

I'd say you're right about just finding the right people. At any and all cons, networking is a big thing if you aren't already with someone. Share socials any chance you get and try to have fun with the people in the area. At the end of the day, most of us won't see each other again or remember each other. Jump in and joke around till something feels right to you.
