What is the best way to contact me?

Through email. The address is winterwish.photo AT gmail.com. Replace the AT with a @ sign before sending!

Why do I have to sign the release form?

It's the law. All the clauses are standard of a contract. I am not going to sell your photos for stock or anything honestly.

Can I post your pictures on my cosplay/acp/cosspace/lj?

Please do! I only ask you not crop or edit it in photoshop to preserve the logo and to respect the artistic vision I had for it.

Why did I not get 100% of all the pictures from shoot? Why does it take so long? Where are my funny outtakes?

Art takes time, and I treat your pictures as if it were a professional shoot. With a paid shoot, I also send you 2 pictures of your choice as a gift not bound by the previous clause.

Do you do touchups?

I do full skin touchups, as well clone out unwanted elements in the background for paid shoots. I may also do this for non-paid as well if I feel it needs it.

Why can’t I crop the pictures?

There are incidents of image stealing in the cosplay community. Email me the cropped picture to watermark before posting - this is a FREE service I am happy to provide!

Do you prefer cosplays that are exceptional or PG-only? Is there a limit on groups? What do I need to bring?

I don't discriminate between "good" and "bad" cosplay. Semi yaoi and yuri poses will be marked with warnings online. It depends on the package - look at that page. Just bring yourself and a helper if it's possible.

What do you mean you don't know how to pose me?

I am an avid viewer of Anime and Manga, but I don't have time to follow everything. Please come up with a few poses for yourself first, and I will do research as best as I can.

Can we take an initial slot, but then change it as our schedule changes?

Your time slot can change - there is no guarantee your new slot is avalible. Please keep your old slot til your new one is availble.

Can I pay in Cash?

If you make a really good case by email, perhaps.

I missed my slot - can I re-schedule or get a refund?

Look to the pricing info for what packages are refundable. Feel free to call me at the con to re-schedule or tell me you can’t make it.
