My Bio
I take pictures :heart:

I specialize in cosplay photography and stage photography with a focus on taiko (Japanese drumming). This may seem like an odd combination, but it works for me and I love doing it. XD I shoot with Canon; my main camera is a Canon 1D Mark III and my second camera is a Canon Rebel T2i.

I am currently working on publishing a photobook on cosplay in the United States. If you're interested in being part of the project, I invite you to learn more on the official page. www.breakingalltherules.net or visit the Facebook page www.facebook.com/BreakingAllTh…

See below for a schedule of where I'll be in the next few months and maybe we can work together!

Visit gerodere.deviantart.com for my cosplay props and more photos of my own costumes :D

Current Residence: Boston
Photographers who inspire me: Joey L, Laurence Kim, Miss Aniela, Amanda Irwin, Benny Lee, Neil van Niekerk, Stephen Tang, Abbot W., Nuby deLeon

I haven't journaled in a while, but welcome to all my new watchers and everyone who's come by to browse in the past couple of months :) A lot has happened! Most notably, the fundraising goal for my second book fundraiser was reached and blown past by over $600!! Thanks to everyone who donated. I've added a couple of western cons to the convention schedule and there will be cosplayers from North and South Dakota, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and more included in the book! This week, I was lucky enough for my work to be noticed by the gaming website Polygon, who profiled me for their "Human Angle" series. I talk to reporter Alexa Ray Corriea about g

If you missed the first fundraiser for my cosplay photobook project and wanted to donate, here's the second stage fundraiser!

Would you like a private shoot? I'm booking! It's $15 per cosplayer per half hour shoot, and you get 5-6 nice high-res photos (more if you book a group). I'll be at PAX Friday and Saturday, and Matsuri all weekend. Please contact me if

A look at 2013

0 min read
I hope all of you are having a great end of the year. If you had school finals, I hope they went well! :heart: Next year is going to be a busy one for me. I'm starting off my year officially at Katsucon 2013. I may also attend Arisia 2013 in January, depending on what happens. Here's the list of cons that are confirmed for me as I continue to travel the country to get interviews and photographs for the cosplay photobook: :bulletyellow::bulletyellow::bulletyellow:EVENTS FOR 2013:bulletyellow::bulletyellow::bulletyellow: Katsucon: National Harbor, MD February 15th-17th, 2013 Anime Matsuri: Houston, TX March 29-31, 2013 Anime Central: Chica
