Hysteria Machines: Winter is Stunning GoT Nerdlesque - Promotional Photos

July 23, 2017

Below are some photos and unused promotional materials I created for Hysteria Machines' Winter is Stunning Game of Thrones Show.

Having worked with HM in the past on various projects, I was so excited to be brought into the "Inner circle" and asked to document some of the wonderful costuming going into the production. Many of these photos have been waiting to be posted since April and I am happy that they can finally see the light of day.

2016: A Year in Review

December 28, 2016

Oh hey there! Yes, I know it's been a while. But fear not, I'm still around. Just unintentionally took the last two months of the year off. I guess I just needed to take a bit of a break. Right now I'm lying in bed, getting over the last little bit of some flu or some other sickness. I figured if I can't be good for much else, I may as well get my yearly review post out of the way.

Much like last year, I had a very hard time getting things narrowed down to just 5 images. But since this is my blog I guess I'll do what I damn-well please.

On a rainy Easter Sunday, Sara and I took an afternoon just doing whatever we could. Just being cool. Some great photos walking around Atlanta and getting caught out in the weather.

Cody, Damien, and Coco from Ecto Proxy asked me to shoot some promo photos for them this year. We had planned on a few different shoots, but this one was the only one that materialized. Not that I am complaining. We had fun with a simple white background set up in the practice space.

I actually don't think this photo of Hada Pixie ever got shown in its full resolution this year. Long story short, we were trying to save it for publication, but it never did get chosen. None the less, I still like what we were able to do with such a simple setup.

Sig and Nikki. So glad to get the chance to shoot them both together. After having individual shoots with both of them over the course of the year, October came and with it came Halloween photos. I was extremely happy with a lot of the photos we captured that day, but this one still stands out as one of the best of the year.

Unintentionally 2016 became the year of the cosplay. Shooting with Sig (also mentioned above) with his Red Hood costume, got me tied in with Hysteria Machines (and with it Risky Sour, Persephone Phoenix, and Jesse), as well as Estella Zorn and her great gender swapped Tuxedo Mask. I never really fancied myself a cosplay photographer, but if the shoe fits...I'm not opposed to wearing it.

The Dragoncon 2016 Update! (Much Ado About Nerddom IV) – 08/31/2016.

September 06, 2016

So DragonCon may have ended yesterday (boo), and I wasn't able to make it this year (double boo), but at least I was given the chance to photograph a little something nerdy to make up for it.

(YES...Before you say anything, I'm a little late on this one. Narrowing things down took a little longer than I expected it would. Deal with it.)

Even though I received my last minute invite from Persephone of Hysteria Machines, big thanks for Dani for throwing the whole shindig and letting me hang around for a while snapping photos!

Next year, if you are planning on attending Con proper make sure you take some time out of your busy schedule to check out what Much Ado About Nerddom has to offer!
