This time I'm posting a few sets of photos shot at recent anime conventions. Let's use this convention photo with purple lightning special effects as the cover, as I feel it has quite a strong visual impact. I've just entered the photography mutual collaboration circle not long ago. My CN is Yueying, currently based in Shenzhen, and going forward I will basically attend major exhibitions in Guangzhou, like Firefly and so on. If it's convenient, I will also go to Foshan and Guangzhou for official photoshoots.
I can guarantee the quality of my makeup and styling. Sisters who need to can check the raw camera images or makeup detail photos. Usually, I also bring my own logistics help to toss clothes and move things, so during the shoot, the photographer basically doesn't need to worry about props or costume adjustments. My main fandoms are HoYoverse games like Honkai: Star Rail and Zenless Zone Zero, and my new fandom is playing Wuthering Waves, so the style of the upcoming photos will lean heavily toward these directions.
My personality is slightly socially anxious. When we first meet, I might not talk much, but once we get to know each other, I can be very expressive, so there's no need to worry about the shooting atmosphere. At the same time, I also want to clarify that I don't shoot lewd or suggestive content; I mainly focus on normal creative work. If photographers have concerns in this regard, we can communicate in advance.
Regarding the requirements for the TFP photoshoot, I hope the photographer has a certain amount of portrait shooting experience and can provide some past works for reference. Comp card quality is fine, no need for extremely high-end setups, but composition and light/shadow need to be on point. Since my new account doesn't have many published works yet, more complete photos and shooting behind-the-scenes can be viewed slowly after adding each other. For now, checking out these few preview images can give a general idea of the style.
As for the shooting venues, I accept both anime convention photos and outdoor official shoots. The venues in Guangzhou have diverse lighting and environments, which are great for producing special effects synthesis-oriented photos. For example, the starry sky, musical notes, and piano keyboard in the last few collages were added in post-production. It would be even better if the photographer is also good at or willing to try this special effect style.
Usually, I arrange shoots when I have time on weekends. If the venue is right on a weekday evening, I might also make a trip, but it mostly depends on the photographer's schedule. I will prepare the costumes, wigs, props, and makeup in advance, so the shoot won't wait too long. With a logistics buddy following along, changing outfits and carrying items will be handled, making the overall process quite smooth.
The current plan is to intensively participate in several Shenzhen Anime Conventions and several events in Guangzhou over the next few months. If any photographer happens to be there and wants to shoot similar genres, feel free to contact me anytime. The TFP model means both sides invest time, energy, and skills to jointly complete a satisfying piece of work. I place high value on the output quality and will cooperate with post-production adjustments, rather than just brushing it off.
Finally, regarding the communication method, direct messages or adding contacts are both fine. Due to my social anxiety, my replies might be a bit slow, but I will look through them seriously once I see them. Before the shoot, I will also send photos of the costumes and props to the photographer in advance, making it convenient for them to brainstorm composition and give action guidance beforehand, which makes the on-site efficiency much higher. I hope to meet a compatible photographer in the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Foshan region to produce more interesting Anime-style photography pieces together.
