Composite Photography

Composite photography is combining or blending two or more photos together to make one final image. This sounds simple but this can be more difficult than it seems. I am using 2020 to really push my editing skills in building composites.

Emerald City Comic Con 2024

Emerald City was first west coast convention I attended back in 2022 and I’ve been coming back since. It never disappoints. Even with the wet weather. It was cool because it was as laid back as you wanted it to be or as up-tempo as you wanted. This convention gave me the opportunity to meet so many cosplayers that I normally don’t see because I don’t travel to many west coast conventions. I was able […]
