Gloria here. This was my first 18th century gown that I ever made, in 2009-2010. I’m glad some of my older costumes still hold up! These photos are from a @costumeandcamera.bsky.social event last year. #18thcenturyfashion #historicalcostumer #cosplayphotography #costumeandcamera

This week marks 25 years of my knowing this amazing person! So grateful to have spent a quarter-century hanging with my best friend.—M (Bonus: I found one of the earliest photos with both of us in it, from almost a year before we start dating. We were such babies!)

Gloria here, sharing photos from the @costumeandcamera.bsky.social meetup at Burnside Farms. With the strong sun, Mike and did a backlit set. I knew I would increase fill and exposure on me during editing, so we planned for that. The last photo is an outtake from when Mike was testing settings. 😂☀️

It’s time for another semi-annual Portfolio Review on Bluesky! Every six months, I’ve been selecting the best nine cosplay photos I’ve ever taken, and sharing my current “portfolio.”—M (See next post for full images/cosplayer credits. All 📸: @inthelongrun.bsky.social.)
A three by three grid of cosplay photos. The top row includes a Batgirl cosplay, a Rhaenyra Targaryen cosplay from House of the Dragon, and a 18th Century historical costume inspired by Sleeping Beauty’s blue/pink color changing dress. The second row includes a 1920s film star costume, a Commander Shepard costume from Mass Effect, and a Dancer Petra costume from Fire Emblem. The third row includes a couture take on Castiel from Supernatural, a two 18th historical gowns, and a 1900s menswear costume.

Ran around Katsucon as a beheaded queen because apparently I have to always wear something from SIX now. The hair style is a pain but this is only the second time I've worn Anne Boleyn and it was nice to give her another outting. Pictures by the wonderful @inthelongrun.bsky.social!
