2014-2015 Conventions
There’s just something about a Comiccon or a Pop Expo that brings the best out of cosplayers. Conventions are a wonderful place for you to lose your fear, dress up in your favorite comic book, movie, manga or video game character – and no one can tell you you’re doing it wrong. Faithful adaptations, perfect look-alikes, on-the-cheap trickery, amazing craft work, mash-ups, store-bought outfits, gender-benders, race swaps, or all of the above – cosplay is the 21st century’s fastest growing hobby.
You spend a lot of time, money, and effort on your cosplay – so treat yourself to a studio photo set so that folks will remember what you looked like on that day. Walking around photos are fine, but don’t take a chance on strangers posting your photos in a place where you might not be able to find them… instead, take advantage of our Dropbox system where your photos are waiting for you to grab them.
You’ll be able to find Open Shutter at most of the main events in Ottawa and Toronto in 2014 and 2015. Check out the links below.

For all conventions, we offer a basic studio shot rate, and we offer week-end rates for those cons that run more than one day (this is great if you plan to come in with different cosplays on different days), as well as “after-hours” shoots if you want a longer session away from the cramped confines of our booth. Our lights are powered by batteries, so we can shoot literally anywhere you can go.
