Damn. And she looks like she could be really cute too. This guy or girl sucks.

Make sure you name the photographer responsible if their watermarks aren't on the photos.
>>

That's unfortunate anon, I would fight for a refund

The problem in this picture is the makeup, it's horrible, and I'm not even a makeup wizard or anything like that. Those pores are scaring me.
>>
>>8805853
This costume is missing so many important details it hurts me
>>
>>8806786
the makeup is awful, no question, but what is truly scary is how dehydrated and dry the skin looks here. flaky, patchy, just.. no.
>>
>>8806751
For that dollar they could have at least gotten rid of blemishes and shit jesus help a bitch out
>>

Nah. Jamie
Melbourne cosplayer.

This guy brags about taking the best pictures ever but his work sucks.

Just wtf is this white glow coming from the ceiling?

I'm no photoshop extraordinaire but it took me like a minute to just take away the blemishes.

But seriously to pay 60/120 for a shitty cropped photo that didn't undergo any cosmetic photoshop?????? WHY?????
>>
>>8807839
gosh please no
looks way worse like this, skin blurring is a cancer and should end
>>
>>8807839
now you just gave her awkwardly coloured eyebags. it's fixable but it actually does take some blending effort
>>
>>8806751
She is way too old to be cosplaying Ciel.
>>
>>8807867
>>8807889

I put 0 effort, I can't photoshop worth shit. But with skin that porous - it's either blur it or overlay?

Still doesn't make sense why someone would pay for a photo like that in the first place.
>>
>>8807916
If it's one photo of many I guess it could be allowable assuming you still got some good ones out of the deal. Still not a good example of your work if you're trying to get hired though. You should be able to self cull photos
>>
>>8806751
The Composition of this photo is pure shit. Her entire face isn't in frame. If you are going to do a portrait photo why would you cut her face off..
>>
>>8808297
I don't think it was supposed to be a portrait per ce, but rather focus on the contact lense.
Which makes this even shittier.

Let me just google the game art and shoop a girl's face into it and the cosplayer can claim this as a cosplay print. This dude charges up to 300 for his "Photography"

I feel like over-clarifying is such a tempting pitfall that photographers have all fallen to (myself included). It just seems like such a quick fix to a lot of problems and when you're processing photos it's really appealing but just makes the shot crappy.
>>
>>8808734

What's wrong with this? The editing is a bit cheesy, but this is Love Live, it's got that "kawaii aidoru desu" feeling. Only think I'd say is that the paintings look clearly photoshopped, but other than that it looks good. (kudos for the location tho)
>>
>>8810192
Bad lighting, bad composition.
>>
>>8806781
probably is, but Vander is just shit in general even with good cosplay.
>>
>>8808758

Same on KawoShin one. I think looking awfully cheesey actually saves this.

My main complaint is that Nico's face is overly photoshopped. Her face looks like it's melting
>>
This just popped up in my feed and it fucking horrified me.

I honestly used to be a fan of Byndo but now she seems to cater to overtly sexualized cosplay/photoshoots for her neckbeard fans [ie Female Dewitt and kitty lingerie shoot?]. Also seems like a bit of a try hard in her videos? I don't know, maybe it's just me but I don't like the quality of her stuff anymore.

Holy shoop Batman

Let me translate this for you anon; I have learned this language fluently during my time on /cgl/:

>She's prettier than me and I fucking hate it
>>
I was looking through this photoset on FB and it's so cute but this calcifer terrifies me.
>>
>>8810881
What quality? She buys most of her stuff, its not like she went for couture handmade gowns to cat ears and panties.

This photo is nightmare fuel no matter who she is though. JFC
>>
>>8807688
Just another photographer that thinks that adding a sun flare can distract you from the crappiness of the photo.
>>
>>8811090

Oh nooo I stated that I didn't like how her quality of stuff has gone downhill.

Yup, totally upset that she's pretty. You caught me. Dang.

>>8811303

I liked her Diablo wizard and I freaking LOVED her Lilith - that's what made me start following her. I haven't seen anything from her lately that makes me want to follow her anymore.
>>
>>8811298

Yeah, I saw this on FB and it's like... something is off about her lips? I mean obviously photoshop but I can't get why they Joker extended them...
>>
>>8810102
Oh my gosh that is a bad photo. What is the editing?
>>
>>8811298
What is it supose to be that flame with eyes...?
>>
>>8811403
I agree with you anon she isn't trying as hard any more because she has neck beards who love her naked. Why try to cosplay cool shit when they don't care

Sweet heat. Your spine is broken.
>>
>>8811303
lmafo she didn't buy this shit look at that shoddy collar
>>
>>8813376
The photo isn't really too bad?
And about the spine - I'm a gymnast and know PLENTY of people that have that sort of back flexibility. Take your vendetta elsewhere.
>>
>>8810881
I used to like Kelly's cosplays, but she's just felt like a sell-out now.
>>
>>8813391
lol no, she's trying to give herself an ass by arching her back.

also
>dat shoop on face
>none on body or veiny hands
>>
This photog has been posting in the Katsu Photography page recently, EDward Fotography
>>
>>8813391
As someone who's seen her in real life,
No her spine isnt broken
>>8813376
No she isnt a gymnast and hardly looks like that in real life.
>>
>>8813376
WTF would a fatty know about how a lean body is supposed to look like?

>>8813577
Edward Photography's photos are always dark and snapshot-looking. And people keep liking the shots. Do cosplayers just like any kind of photo so long as the photographer kisses their ass?
>>
>>8813391
Seagulls do not appreciate this level of magazine retouching if it hints at sexuality which idc Fye is famous for. These fat asses aren't worth impressing anyways.
>>
>>8813379
Sarah fong made it if I remember correctly. Byndo was just using it
>>
>>8812580
This is what it was originally.
>>
>>8811298
This wouldn't look bad if it wasn't for the flame thing.

>>8808734
I'm almost certain that any decent photographer got the unedited photo could have made this look great. The composition itself is great, the lack of sharpness and the over shooping is what ruined it.

Split lighting is a fairly common technique. It looks like he tried to do it but just fucked everything up somehow.

i like the shot, I wish they had done some fine tuning. also perhaps the other side of that pole? because her eye patch is kinda hidden. anyways did some d and b and levels/curves.
