Emmacchi

I’ve been cosplaying since 2000, but have become more serious in the last few years.  To me, cosplay is an outlet for creativity and an excuse to dress up.  I love doing pair and group cosplays in particular, since it gives me a chance to have fun with my friends.  I am primarily a seamstress, and though I occasionally help out with props, my strength is sewing.  I also enjoy photography and am always up for organizing and running a shoot.
