My name is Kevin Lu and I’ve recently started pursuing high end cosplay photography. I have a background in computer animation and computer graphics. One of my recent high profile projects was contributing to the CG lighting team for Disney’s Frozen 2. My photography style draws inspiration from cinema and lighting from animated movies and live action cinematographers.
I collaborated with Nikki on a KDA Kai’sa inspired cosplay photo-shoot utilizing FD studios! It was a fantastic experience. I’m in the process of building a following and cosplay photography portfolio. I hope to collaborate with unique talents in the NYC area. If anyone is interested to reach out, feel free to message me on
For this photo shoot, we utilized Yongnuo led lights with colored gels to create dramatic stylized lighting. The Sony A7iii utilized for the shoot worked well for high quality low light shooting. The blackout studio from FD studios was fantastic for creating a concert sort of atmosphere. Research, references, and fantastic location greatly contributed to the success of the shoot.
Our Blackout & RGB enforced studio 4 with “Action Painting” wall is on a high demand. This blackout stage was designed to provide complete control over the strobe light. As with any our other stages a standard package of three basic backdrops and three lights is available within the stage already.
