RWBY | Atlanta Cosplayer | Shanice

Posted on August 9, 2017
Atlanta has some amazing cosplayers. I mean, truly amazing. So much so that I’ll be back down there in November for round two, so if you’re in Atlanta, you should book a session. I said all that to say that Shanice is no exception. As a matter of fact, we somehow managed to slay two different cosplay shoots in one day.

RWBY

Shanice | Atlanta Cosplayer

Shanice is amazing. Honestly, she’s a powerful human being. It’s in her stance, it’s in her vibe, and it’s in her smile. There was no doubt in my mind stepping into the backyard of my good friend Pandora’s land that she was about to bring a look to RWBY like non I’d ever seen before.

What’d you think? Shanice made a fantastic RWBY didn’t she?

You can follow this Atlanta cosplayer on Instagram to check out more of her fantastic cosplays and her fantastic natural hair journey!
If you’re in Atlanta in November, you should book a session because Jasemine Denise Photography is definitely coming back!
I had such a great time shooting Shanice and the rest of the gang, I couldn’t resist.
You can also check out the shoot I did with Ebby which fun fact was shot in the same place this session was!

Punk Storm Cosplay // Collaboration

Posted on August 3, 2017
Punk Storm has been a dream of mine since I could first remember. I’m talking before I could even imagine holding a camera would get me as far as it has. When the Queen behind Weave N Luxury, the Queen behind SKG Designs and I all started talking about a collaboration where I’d be in front of the camera, I jumped at the chance to live one of my wildest dreams out.

The Hair // + Weave N Luxury

The wig to this cosplay was created from 100% human hair by Weave N Luxury. When I said Storm, she just immediately knew where I was going with it. It was crazy. She dyed it so that it had the look specifically and then when I got on set, she styled and cut it right there while it was on my head. Magic!

The Punk Look // + SKG Designs

You can’t be punk storm without having some punk in your outfit.
I contemplated for weeks what would make this look complete. Of course it was almost a no brainer after time. My handmade EST 19xx spiked bra. I’ve been asked for years if I made the bra myself, the answer is yes! Ontop of that is the Selene Harness that I rocked right alongside the Selene waist belt, both leather and handmade from SKG.

The collar is a white leather with a large O ring also created by SKG designs. While it may not be available in white anymore, there is definitely an entire leather collection that can be purchased in either red or black. 

Are you digging the Punk Storm Cosplay?

Punk storm has always been a dream of mine! What’s your next cosplay? What’s your dream cosplay? Seriously, tell me in the comments! I’d love to know. Also, remember that you can get a discount over at SKG Designs any time by using the code ‘JasemineDenise’ and if you buy something… You should tag me in a photo of you rocking it on Instagram, because I love love love seeing people rock SKG!

V – Eleven // Stranger Things Cosplay

Posted on July 5, 2017
Have you seen the show Stranger Things? I haven’t yet but I’ve seen one amazing queen slay the entire character in one shoot…. Well, technically two. I first shot V back in October of 2016. It was right around Halloween and I was one step off of begging. She’s got a way about her… Like, a real one that captivates you into feeling like shooting her is a need. Being around her is infectious. One of her first ever ideas was to do a Stranger Things cosplay and she immediately had her character picked out. I was skeptical, being someone who had never seen the show, but she lead the way.

That being said, are you ready for her Eleven Stranger Things Cosplay? 

V – ELEVEN – Stranger Things Cosplay

Set the tone. You had heard about a freak ‘accident’ in the grocery store up the street. Some ‘freak’ came in and took a bunch of waffles. They say she was armed with… telekinetic powers or something. Sounds like propaganda. Anyways, you get your Fuiji water from the gas station and go into the woods for your morning walk. In the woods, you hear a rustling followed by a ravenous noise… As you come across a clearing in your path, you see it… her…


They weren’t lying. There she is, some weirdo with a nosebleed chowing down on waffles… fresh out the box, and when a twig snaps under your foot… She looks at you in a manner that you’ve never seen before. She wasn’t exactly giving you the evil eye, but still. The look on her face put a shiver up your spine. You wanted to move, to run, to scream for help… but all you could do was stand there, dumbfounded at the fact that you should’ve been more mindful of what they were saying on the news. They said she was dangerous right?

She stood to her feet and you thought she had a weapon. It turned out to be a waffle. Your head tilted sideways, your gaze perplexed.
… The last thing you can remember was her holding her hand out.

Everything went black…
please don’t let it end like this..

***
“Hello?” You whispered as your eyes adjusted to the darkness that awaited your rise. She appears, seemingly out of the darkness. Eyes fixed on yours, head tilted, and without warning she gives you a dark smile.

You can’t move your arms. You can’t move your legs. You’re trapped.

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING? LET ME GO!” You scream. Your words are lost in the darkness as she backs away. Soon she is but a dark faded memory and you know that your fate has been filled.

V is not Evil, I promise.

She plays the role very well but as it would turn out, the Stranger Things cosplay is the ‘darkest’ thing we’ve done yet. You’ll see her serving looks again soon here at JDcom but if you just can’t wait, follow her on Instagram! Also, subscribe to the blog to get updated first!

Sailor Moon Cosplay – Ebby – JDP

Posted on March 30, 2017

Sailor Moon cosplay, you say? Yes! This is no ordinary Sailor Moon Cosplay though. Things are about to get M A G I C A L. I got the honor of working with the gorgeous @chibimagicalgirl​ during my last trip to Atlanta and wow did she kill it. As a special edition version of Sailor Moon, she summoned all the black girl magic I could possibly envision in such a gorgeous shoot. This is no ordinary Sailor Moon cosplay. It’s actually a fan cosplay made from a digital fan art by asieybarbie.

Sailor Moon Cosplay // Ebby

Ebby is an Atlanta cosplayer who puts the adorable in adorable. No, it’s not a typo… She’s just that cute. Armed with an amazing and fully functional wand, this Sailor Moon is absolutely ready for the cuteness of being in front of the camera.

Absolutely Magical Right?

I was absolutely in love with this Sailor Moon cosplay, so much that I started seeing double! Two Sailor Moons! You’ll see the other one soon, but in the meantime… You can check out more cosplay photoshoots here and don’t forget to follow Ebby on Instagram!
