During a photoshoot earlier this year, I met a wonderful costume designer by the name of Beth! We started talking and soon found out both of us did cosplay and had atended many of the same conventions. Then I saw her costuming skills, was I in awe or what.
Beth graduated from Swinburne Costume for Performance in 2011 and had an amazing final piece where the actors were performing on silk ribbons hung from the ceiling. I didn't know it was her at the time, but it was still one of my favourite parts.
Fast forward to 2013 when we met, we discovered we would both be attending the popular Melbourne convention Supa Nova, we were very happy to agree to meet up and hang out. It was going to be great, then tragedy struck at their groups end when their photographer dropped out and wasn't able to make it to the con. Lucky for them, Beth remembered me and asked me to take photos for them.
Since then I have also photographed her at Manifest and for a uni brief. Here are some of the images we have created together! She has made all of these costumes and I can't wait for more opportunities to work with her.
