Dreamcoat Photography

When Emily won a free photoshoot at the cosplay comp at Unleashed Toombul in June 2013 I knew we were going to have fun. One of our staff Miranda also loves to cosplay and has a Vampire Knight Yuki Cross costume. Emily had a Zero Kiryu one. Worlds were colliding. There was lots of teenage giggling and next thing I knew we were doing a Cosplay shoot with them both.

Here are the results – see for yourself.

if you are interested in booking a cosplay shoot we have mini shoots like this starting from $99

We have a fantastic opportunity available for one lucky person. This is not a random draw, and we will select the best applicant based on a number of things.

What you get

You will get full makeup and hair, glamour photo shoot, clothing and styling provided, 1-2 locations, some headshot and profile photos, a number of full size edited glamour images and more.

We will use you as a cover and promotional model and will take a number of photos we can use in advertising promos etc.

We may use you at events as a paid promotional assistant. (conditions apply)

We have some conditions.

Your skin must be in very good condition, facial skin particularly clear of acne, scars and and pimples, no large bruises cuts or scabs. Your hair should also be in good condition.

You must be confident, proud of yourself and able to mix in public and communicate well.

You will probably be a lady between 16 and 35. However we are open to other ages and men as well – attitude is very important as is ability to follow instructions.

You must submit at least three images of yourself – they don’t have to be professional photos.

• Full length standing pose – wear whatever you like, but we need to see your figure.
• Closeup smiling face  or head and shoulders photo. Preferably 3/4 profile, clearly showing your eye colour, teeth, skin and hair.
• Something creative. Be wacky and zany – show us your style, personality and attitude.

Include your contact details including mobile phone no, email, address (suburb is fine) and Facebook page or profile.

You will need to add Tim as a friend on Facebook if you are not already and like Dreamcoat Photography.

Submit your application and images to sales@dreamcoatphotography.com 

Note: we will publish selected finalists submissions in a voting contest. Having 7,000 of your friends like it won’t win you the spot, but it will be part of our selection process.

Applications must be received by midnight 14th July AEST.

How we select

We will review all applicants – and email you to advise we have received it. We may also have further questions for you by email or phone.

We will short list finalists 18th July and post them on the website and Facebook for a voting contest.

We will close the voting 25th July and make final decision by 31 July announcing the winner on 1st August.

Get submitting - and good luck!

A rainy day saw the markets at Toombul attended by a lower number than hoped for but still a big turnout – with people coming from as far away as Caloundra and Toowoomba to check the markets out!

We ran a combined promotion with The Veritas Dark Collection – with Ben dressed as Death posing with all and sundry.

there was also a cosplay comp – the winner getting a free cosplay photoshoot worth $149 from us.

Here are some of our pics from the photobooth and the markets – the rest are on Facebook – follow the links.

Miss Leigh is a lovely girl who wanted some great photos for herself. We have done one other shoot with her before an this time were able to team up with French Kiss Boutique and Vintage Hippy for some clothing. Unfortunately the rain cancelled many of our original plans – which have been postponed for another time. We made use of the rain however and shot her formal gowns in the rain.

Here are some pics – if you want photos like this then please contact us to arrange a shoot – we can access the French Kiss Boutique and Vintage Hippy clothes pretty much any time. Prices start from $350.

A new venue for Unleashed Markets was Caloundra in June. We will be gong back 22 September which will be fun. There was a great crowd with over 1200 people through the doors. Dreamcoat Photography covered the event and also ran a photobooth on the couch in the foyer. We collaborated with French Kiss Boutique and Vintage Hippy for some great shots.

Here are some of my favourites.

Photos from the market stalls and public.

The Roma St Parklands is used by many cosplaying groups as a meet-up area. Often they invite photographers along to shoot them. I had a spare hour last Sunday and popped in to see who was there and scored a delightful collection of photos with a great bunch of people.

If you want a full shoot with your costume then check out our great cosplay shoot prices.

Creekside Church asked me to take some photos from a service. We always try to be as unobtrusive as possible when shooting functions. In this case we sued a gigantic lens to get in close without people being distracted by us.

Here are just a few of the images.
