This was the first Dragon*Con where I, myself, wore a costume!  (Yes.  This happened.  And it was awesome.)  Other cosplayers probably could have told me that this would not play well with my over-ambitious plans to photographs some 17+ costumes over the course of the weekend, but I didn’t ask.  As it turned out, my own fun (and an unfortunate encounter with a strobe light) cut my shooting plans short, and I only wound up making new Checked In photos on Friday.  I’m SUPER sad to have missed out on the great costumes I was supposed to photograph on Sunday, but I’m veryveryveryVERY thankful to the 7 Friday folks who so graciously invited me into their hotel rooms!  It was a lot of fun to photograph some new characters and work with some incredibly talented costumers!
