Another Swimsuit Kotetsu photo from this past ALA! Too ridiculous to not post. Especially with sonteen12 giving the &#8220;what the hell&#8230;?&#8221; look in the background. Shot courtesy of Sam Lau, and I gotta say, the guy&#8217;s a bro. Met him at Anime LA 2011, where he did my Tropius shots. Ran into him again at a few cons throughout the year as well, and whether I was shooting or cosplaying he knew it was me. Whether he&#8217;s talking photography kit with you or getting his own set up to make you look fantastic in costume, he&#8217;s great. If he doesn&#8217;t know your character? He&#8217;ll ask who they are, what they&#8217;re like, what they do, etcetera so he can suggest some good poses. He&#8217;ll take his time to get the angle, lighting, and composition right for a shot. Basically, if he asks you for a photo, consider yourself privileged!

More Swimsuit Kotetsu shots thanks to BKaguya! Jump over to his photostream and give him some respect, folks. The man’s a wizard, glorious beard and all.

Can I just say that with that second photo, my favourite part isn’t even getting to frolick in the pool, or the two cute mermaids grabbing my leg and butt, but Sir Grand Swagmaster Don’t-Give-A-Shit in the background, just lounging around like a boss.
