Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while but I've had a few family issues to deal with lately and it slipped my mind. Too make it up to you I've posted some of my favourite photos from the latest convention I photographed: Team Unleashed's Gateshead Comic Con at The Lancastrian Suite in Dunston.
Unfortunately, the main hall was very crowded and dark so I decided to avoid taking photos in their and instead focused on shooting on the top floor and outside. I even managed to find a loading bay on the outside of a nearby factory that I used as a background for a few Psylocke photos and some trees that I used for Captain Jack and Mr Gibbs.
This was probably the most hectic con I've shot at for quite a while, because it was so busy and there wasn't a lot of places to get photos but I enjoyed it and think I got some cool shots.
I usually prefer to go to conventions to meet cosplayers and organise solo shoots with them rather than try to get amazing photos at the conventions because they are usually too unplanned and chaotic for my liking.
Luckily, I meet some fantastic cosplayers and I'm already discussing ideas for shoots with some of my favourites. I'm looking forward to my next convention but I'm not sure which one that will be yet.
As usual, I shot using my Nikon D610 with a 18-85mm lens and SB-700 speed light with a portable softbox. My settings were 1/125 shutter speed and aperture f/5 and I increased my ISO to lighten the background depending on where I was shooting.
