I had the opportunity to shoot with Claire Sanders Claire Sanders Designs after the fashion show at the Steampunks World Fair. It was a quick shoot, to get each model and her outfit
We moved outside to take advantage of the beautiful day and better backdrop
I’m home from the SteamPunk World’s Fair, held this past weekend in central NJ. And yes I live in central NJ, so the whole thing was remarkably convenient. I had a great time overall, saw a lot of old friends, made plenty of new ones, and took lots of photographs. Now it’s off to see what the camera holds.
I finally went ahead and created a page on Facebook. Not much is there yet, but I’m starting to organize some photo galleries to put up there.
Ok, so I haven’t posted here in quite a while. The winter has been slow from a photo perspective , but I have been adding stuff over at Flickr, including:
I also just attended the Wicked Faire and have started posting photos from that as well.
I’ve been meaning to tackle this subject for a while, especially for all of you who find your way here through my other work and want to know what all this is about.
However, for now there are better writer’s takling about that. It’s steampunk month over at Tor.com and G.D Falksen has written an excellent piece called Steampunk 101. It’s a good primer to get started with and I hope to see more interesting thoughts in the comments.
It also features several of my photos, along with those of several other photographer. Go take a read, then come back and look through more of my photos.
Where I’m going and where I’ve been…
I will be at NY Anime Fest this weekend on Saturday. I will be helping my friends over at Cosclips with their photobooth for half of the day, and probably photographing the con the rest of the time. If you see me say hi, or stop by the booth if you want to find me.
I was also at DragonCon, but for a number of reasons it was a bit low key. No planned photoshoots, but a few were still done and will be posted up soon.
Just over a week ago I travelled up to the NY Ren Faire to both see the Faire and attend the Time Traveller’s picnic steampunk meet up.
Last year at about this time I attended the Renaissance Fair in Tuxedo, NY for the Chrononaut’s Time Travel Picnic.
It appears it is becoming an annual event, as the third one will be this Saturday. I will be there, camera and goggles at the ready. 
If you’ve wanted to go to a steampunk meetup in the area, I’d recommend coming by for the meet, then enjpying the rest of the day at the faire. And I always look forward to meeting some new people!
From last year’s picnic:
More photos from the Snap shoot last month. (One more post on these). Most of the steampunk and victorian styled outfits here are from Berit New York with additional props from Brute Force Leather
