What I Learned From Photographing Hyper Dedicated Spider-Man Cosplayers
In an effort do more adventurous things with my life, I started going to cons again this year. To say that it's been an interesting experience is a severe understatement. I've learned a lot of things along the way and have met some rather interesting people. One thing that stuck out to me, of course, is how insane the cosplay scenes have gotten.

This Tarzan and Jane Cosplay Will Absolutely Blow You Away
There have been a lot of really fantastic cosplays popping up lately. I even took a minute to feverishly rant about one recently. My social media feeds have been awash with fantastic stuff and that's always exciting. I have a mountain of appreciation for cosplayers, especially when they absolutely nail it. What really caught my eye this time around was this great Tarzan and Jane cosplay done by Lonstermash and Joanna Lynn, respectively. Alexander Skarsgård and Margot Robbie are cool and all, but these two should probably be in their own live action adaption, too.

From Overwatch to Titans: Meet Evey Dantès, Cosplayer Extraordinaire
A lot of scary stuff comes from Australia. It's a country seemingly built for the sole purpose attempting to murder the people that have the stones to live there. It's not all doom and gloom though, cool stuff comes out of Australia, too. Did you know they invented the electronic pacemaker? That has nothing to do with this article, I just thought it was an interesting fact. Another awesome thing to come out of Australia is Evey Dantès aka Dantès Inferno. This twenty-four-year-old cosplayer/model has racked up 87k likes on her FB page so far and with good reason. She's very good at what she does. With that in mind, here are five of my favorite cosplays by Evey (in no particular order).

Sweet Cosplay You Got There LA Cosplay Con
I had the pleasure of attending The LA Cosplay Convention yesterday at the Long Beach Convention Center. It was a one day event filled with fun panels, great human beings, and some pretty amazing cosplay. I wanted to take a second to share a few favorites with you while I try to remember who everyone was. I met a lot of people. Also, there may have been some drinking.

Take A Look At This Epic Grey Fox Cosplay
One thing I admire about cosplayers is the amount of work they're willing to put in for their costumes. Whether they're a beginner or a seasoned pro, you know that what they're wearing isn't just a costume but a culmination passion and maybe a few sleepless nights sprinkled in. Basically, they're a one person props and costume department which is why when I see really, really good cosplay I don't even dare imagine how much time it must have taken to get there. Self-proclaimed "wannabe artist" Diegator is one of those cosplayers that gave me pause the moment I saw his epic Grey Fox cosplay from Metal Gear Solid. Take a look.

Cosplayer Gets The Surprise Of A Lifetime From 'Force Awakens' Star
I think it's pretty common knowledge by now, but I'll say it anyway, the internet is amazing. We're at a weird point in our society where people who would seem pretty inaccessible even a few years back are just a Twitter mention away. Naturally, there are pros and cons to having that bridge between stars and fans. Right now, I just want to focus on the awesome.

Sneaky Zebra Puts Awesome Cosplay from WonderCon On Display
Sneaky Zebra recently teamed up with Comic-Con HQ to show off some of the best cosplay they could find during WonderCon 2016. Set to an awesome song by the band Timeflies, the video has some familiar faces for fans of cosplay and just a bunch of awesome costumes packed into four minutes of pure nerdgasm. Also, there was someone cosplaying as Mugatu from Zoolander so that's a thing that happened. I love conventions so much. Check out the video below!

Russian Cosplayer Does A Spot On Cassie Cage Cosplay From 'Mortal Kombat X'
Russian cosplayer, Narga comes in hot in her absolutely bang on rendition of Cassie Cage from Mortal Kombat X. Of course, it's not just dressing the part. Embodying the right attitude goes a long way and she definitely has Cassie's looks and vibe down. It's like she was made for this cosplay.

The Force Is Strong With This Cosplayer As Princess Leia
Stacey Rebecca was certainly turning heads at LSCC dressed as Princess Leia from Star Wars. She recently posted a couple of photos of her costume on her Facebook Fan Page and has noted that this comic book inspired look has quickly become one of her favorite cosplays she's done. I'm inclined to agree with that sentiment.

This Russian Cosplayer Hits Hard As Juri From 'Street Fighter'
Street Fighter has come a long way since its arcade days with new characters and shinier graphics introducing it to a new generation of button mashers. Street Fighter V came out ten days ago and although it came out with a slew of problems, people are still kicking away at it. In celebration of all things Street Fighter (and to distract you from the frustration of rage quitters in online matches), I wanted to introduce you to Adelhaid, a cosplayer from Russia who is an absolute stunner as Juri.
