We’ve been busy during the months of June and july with shooting some cosplayers at Metrocon in Tampa for a day and then traveling down to Miami Beach for Florida Supercon where we spent friday through sunday roaming the halls, seeing amazing cosplays, and checking out the area. The costume contest featured a lot of talented individuals even more than we normally see at the smaller cons in central florida. During July we had some private photo shoots at the home studio as well as helped cover the Grand Brony Galla 3 in Tampa Florida where we debuted our updated studio rig and portable flashes, We also spent two days at Fanboy Expo (Bayport Comic con) in Tampa where our staff member katherine, aka B-Dancer took home best novice in their costume contest.

Since then we’ve been calibrating our equipment, editing photos, and doing our normal day jobs while we prepare for this coming week where we’re traveling not to orlando but Anaheim California for Disneyland resort and the D23 Expo. This is our FRST our of state convention EVER and we’re already nervous trying to be sure we got our scheduled down pat. We even have some shoots lined up for the weekend with out of state cosplayers!

We will be very busy for the rest of august editing and catching up as well as restarting school.

We’re not sure if there will be any conventions between D23 and Spooky Empire at the end of October especially with Halloween Horror Nights and Howl-O-Scream happening during that time frame, and all of us do love our haunt season.

Here is a little update on whats been happening with Figmentsmedia.

We’ve been  busy attending about two cons a month with Metro and AFO under out belt, followed by Conjure and Anime Day Orlando Day and a few smaller events. This month we’ve attended Fanboy Expo in Tampa and Mythicon in Orlando. Next month we will be attending Spooky Empire (We loved their mayhem event) and Shadcon.

Finally, we will be attending Ranger Stop in November and Holiday Matsuri in December.

We also have some personal news, We have been upgrading our photography equipment so our fans and clients will start to see an improvement in our outdoor shoots. We also are ready to announce that as early as next january we will have a brand new home studio. With this studio we will be able to have model and cosplayers alike shoot indoors out of the elements against backdrops, This allows for more control over the elements and improvements on the overall photo.

Before we end this small update we would like to invite all of our fans to contact us if they are planning to attend any convention we have posted about in the future, we’re happy to work with cosplayers and models at the conventions on photo shoots to help improve their portfolios.

Dapper Days hosted their spring Walt Disney World event March 9 at the Magic Kingdom. Dapper days began at Disneyland and is a homage to the days when families would dress up when visiting the park. The event is held twice a year, in the spring and fall, at both resorts. During the event fans are encouraged to come dressed in their best dressed as if they were living anywhere from the 1920’s – 1950s.
