[Shimoe Koharu cosplay] Angel's Vow Under White Roses in Blue Archive

This shoot features the Shimoe Koharu cosplay from Blue Archive, showcasing an Angel style outfit interwoven with a white color scheme and pink. I originally thought this rather sacred style would be difficult to pull off, but when I actually put on this dress with its small black wings and a softly glowing halo, I found it unexpectedly fit the character's setting of being 'earnest yet a bit shy.' The tulle material of the skirt hem is incredibly lightweight and flows beautifully when moving, while the small black wings on the back and the halo on top of my head serve as iconic elements, adding layers and recognition to the overall look against the pure white background.

The shooting location was chosen in this church-style indoor setting with stained glass windows and white Roman columns. The light spills through the painted glass, creating very soft tones that perfectly echo the atmosphere of 'white roses' and enveloping the scene in a dreamy atmosphere. The photographer, Master Chao Xian, was very delicate in controlling the composition and lighting. Especially in the few low-angle shots, although lying in the flowers was quite difficult, the fluffiness of the gauze skirt and the lines of the white stockings were captured very naturally. The cut of this costume actually heavily tests one's posture. To present the character's pure yet vibrant state, I specially adjusted my shoulder-neck lines and standing posture before the shoot, hoping to convey Koharu's cuteness of being 'shy but still bravely expressing her feelings.' The whole shooting process was very joyful. The interactions with the floral arrangements, the marble floor, and even the statue nearby gave the frame a sense of narrative. After seeing the final photos, I feel that those little thoughts regarding purity and vows were beautifully recorded by the lens. It counts as a highly satisfactory character recreation attempt.
