The Ladies of United Underworld Photo Shoot | Cosplay Photographer

It’s been awhile since we’ve last done an update on the blog as we’ve been busy in the meantime, but I’ll be putting up a series of new blog posts.

The first one is a photo shoot of the lovely ladies of United Underworld. The last time we had a chance to photograph the group was at the 2009 WonderCon event. You can see pictures of the photo shoot here and resulted in this shot that I really like:

Since it was such a blast working with them, we had an opportunity to do it again, this time in Berkley, CA and only with the ladies: Roxana Meta (Batgirl), Psykitten (Catwoman), and LTC America (Harley Quinn).

It worked out nicely as we were able to shoot inside a book warehouse:

I was trying to capture a scene in which Batgirl is injured and cornered in a warehouse with Harley Quinn and Catwoman slowly closing in.

What happens when you go to the site of an abandoned building with graffiti art everyone next to an active railroad? The backdrop for more epic battle scenes. Eric Lee, our other photographer, took point and produced these amazing shots:

While we didn’t get to spend as much time as we would have liked photographing these lovely ladies of United Underworld, we did manage to at least get in some killer shots. We certainly are very excited for next time! Some technical information for those who are interested, the shots taken by Eric Lee were shot in direct overhead blistering sunlight. We triggered two Canon 580EX II Speedlites on light stands using Canon Wireless Flash System (CWFS).

Also we were joined by Rendy Lai, check out his amazing shots on his website here.

Also a new thing we’ve been doing as of late is making behind-the-scene videos and please excuse how stupid I sound in the video, I’m working on that. Check it out:
