Podcasts about cosplay photography

Hey, Photographer! In this episode of the Build and Bloom podcast, I am joined by Sarah Marie (@SarahMarieSpectrum). Sarah shares her journey from being inspired by pop-culture icons like Black Widow to becoming an international cosplay photographer. She'll discuss how cosplay photography is more than just capturing costumes—it's about telling personal stories, embracing creativity, and making dreams a reality. This episode will explore the intersection of fandom, art, and imagination. Follow Sarah: https://www.instagram.com/sarahmariespectrum https://www.facebook.com/sarahmariespectrumofficial https://www.sarahmariespectrum.com/ Sarah Marie Spectrum is a storyteller and dreamer, with glitter in her heart and adventure coursing through her veins. As an International Cosplay and Fantasy Fine Art Photographer, she brings people's stories to life, helping them unleash their imagination and embrace their wildest dreams. Her photography captures moments of creativity and wonder, exploring the limitless boundaries of imagination. Inspired by fierce women like Black Widow and the epic journeys of The Lord of the Rings, Sarah learned early on to fight for justice—not only for herself but for others. She believes in art's ability to break barriers, build communities, and spark meaningful conversations. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Digital Photography from Arizona State University, she deeply values storytelling, viewing it as the heartbeat of culture— preserving the past and fueling future dreams. In addition to her fine art photography, Sarah is also a seasoned pop-culture event photojournalist, having spent years documenting the vibrant world of conventions, cosplay, and fandom culture. Through her work, she uplifts others, creating a world where creativity and self-expression know no bounds.

We talk about how Scott re-branded his cosplay photography by extracting it from the technique focused "Photography Banzai" brand to "Cosplay Banzai" instead. The "white noise" of different genres of photography together along with that technical focus of the "Photography Banzai" name was a huge hindrance to connecting with people who enjoy cosplay photography. Not mentioned in this episode were semi-personal Instagram and twitter accounts with mostly cellphone food photos and tiny handful of cosplay photos, not a good combination to gain visibility, Haha! There was also a change in editing style of private photoshoots to focus on artistic quality instead of quantity. Time is limited, and fully separating the cosplay photos into their own social media box was a good thing from almost every aspect. The negative is that some photos might never see the light of day, but anything that does get out will receive more care and probably also receive more positive feedback. Moving forward, most if not all photos will go through that public "Cosplay Banzai" social media instead of any past method such as giving cosplayers a ton of half-edited photos privately (while still spending days editing). With websites such as Facebook almost completely killing natural organic reach, it is necessary to look out into other options for added visibility of your works. All of the changes appear to be working well, and it is more fun too! Simply put, pull that art out of the white noise and into its own social media universe!
