Professional Booth - Toshi Yamioka Photography

[Proz]

San Japan has worked out a deal with Toshi Yamioka Photography to put on a FREE professional photo booth so you can get your cosplay taken in a professional setting. There will be a charge for on-site prints. For more info, see the following:

Lololol I feel bad writing in first person so... XD

[Treacly]

Oh my~! Is there a way we can be emailed information about this event?
I would be extremely interested in joining!

They do personal photoshoots right? <3 Or mass groups? (:

[Toshi Yamioka]

I do personal photoshoots, but ATM I'm not doing them outside of cons just yet because San Japan is going to be one of the bigger cons for me so I want to make sure I'm getting enough rest lest I die at the photobooth lol.

But at any rate my booth will be placed somewhere and you can find me and my group. It's essentially first come first serve, and all the pictures are free.

This also means if you bring your group to my booth I can do their picture, but keep in mind I've limited space. The most I've ever fit is this many:

22 vocaloids lol. I also did a group of 10 Kingdom Hearts cosplayers, which was much more managable.

I do personal photoshoots at $20 an hour, but ATM I'm only doing them at night time. I may be able to work out an early morning shoot if I have time, since I'm allowed to change my hours depending.

So, if we go to the booth, the pictures are free? But if we request a personal shoot, it is $20 an hour?

This is how i am seeing it and i am pretty interested!!

This sounds like something where the group I'm with might stop by the booth at some point to have pictures taken... a couple times actually. ^_^;;;

But in all seriousness, we look forward to seeing you around probably! ^_^

That is correct~

I'm endorsed through San Japan to take all of your photos for free at the photobooth! ATM though I am currently not taking personal shoots just because this will be my first big time out of state convention so I want to focus more on the photobooth aspect to make sure I'm delivering the finest photobooth I can offer!

The only thing that costs money are the prints I make on the spot. Otherwise, you're free to look at the photos as they come up on a nice 27" monitor almost immediately, and if you do want a print (since some people do actually want their cosplays in a nice little 5x7 to keep in a scrapbook) that's the only thing that'll cost you. Taking a picture and looking at it is totally free!

Lol alright. Trust me, I've had people come back over and over again just to get different shots. Its fun when we get into action shots or cap flying shots like what you see in some of my photos on my website's front page ^^

I am for sure going to be there! But I do have one question --

Will you be putting the pictures on a website after the con? And if you do, will we be able to download them from there?

Yes and Yes!

I put up all my pictures on my site under the photobooth section.

Currently it's greyed out since of course San Japan has not occured yet, but once the con is over I will link the flickr account I use to it and then it will be highlighted and ready to go!

You can download the pictures and whatnot. They have a logo watermark on the bottom that I ask you not to remove, but otherwise if you wanna put them on your FB or Tumblr or such just credit me or leave the logo and you'll be fine~

[Puritysan]

I think I'm totally gonna do this. :3

Also, I've made a general thread concerning pricing and hours here.

Hopefully this should answer most of your questions.
