Had the chance to be the photographer for this anime, Inu X Boku SS, for my friends at Event Of the Year (EOY) Cosplay Festival 2012! It was my first time having cosplay models to conduct a shoot during an event, which was held at the Marina Barrage!
The models are Alexia Faye Lim Qiao Yi cosplaying as Banri Watanuki, who is a racoon dog demon who labels himself a "delinquent" in the anime, and Ying Jie cosplaying as Karuta Roromiya, who is the Secret Service (SS) for another character in the anime called Kagerou Shoukiin. Karuta Roromiya is a character who usually seems phased out but in fact she is very clever and is very well known for important details. Watanuki, who is the yellow haired guy from the anime, and Karuta, the pink haired girl from the anime, are has been friends since they were little and Watanuki has a very big crush with Karuta, whom she did not realise the affection.
A problem I met during this shoot is that I did not know of this anime and the characters that they are cosplaying, it was actually quite difficult for me to direct them to bring out the characters like how they are in the anime. Thus, I had to get to know about their characters from their brief introduction and try to think of ways to fit the shoot into the anime.
As my experience is considered little, and didn't really walk around the event to take pictures of other cosplayers, I tried to save the picture and make them look decent enough to be presented to you. I had a great time and experience working with these 2 ladies and would wish to conduct more of such shoots!
Alright! Here you go! Feel free to send me your comments on the pictures alright? :)

These were the chosen pictures that I took for Inu X Boku SS! There are some other pictures taken, but not related to the anime itself.
Below are just a few pictures that I took while my models were resting in the air-conditioned cafeteria as the weather was pretty hot that day. I forgotten to check my camera settings when I took the first photo, resulting in the pretty bad quality. The picture was not bad to me, so I decided to do my best to save it! Please take a look as well! ^^ *I have no idea which anime these cosplayers are from >.< *
