Mighty Con Photo Shoot-- POW~!

Hey guys!

In celebration to getting 1K followers on Facebook and Instagram I let my supporters choose my next photoshoot... Facebook choose the one and only Ichigo Kurosaki from Bleach... but Instagram spoke for Wonder Woman... so Foto-Con and I decided we need to do both! Wonder Woman got her chance first ;)

So everyone tries to make the most of their time right... so knowing I was going to be in the heart of Madison for Mighty Con I planned to be Wonder Woman to take some amazing shots after the show! Madison's State Capital Building is gorgeous... and a dead ringer for Washington DC... if you just mess with angles a bit. If you reside in the midwest I would recommend this as a great spot for a quick photo shoot! ;)

Foto-Con owner Joseph Oleksy and I braved the 40 degrees weather for an hour to get some new shots of the Amazonian Princess. I am sad to say I didn't get to do the classic poses I did last time. This shoot was to bring a new look to Diana Prince. The idea was she has been in DC now for a while and is starting to get bored... so she messes around while also guarding the most prestigious buildings in DC. Having some fun on guard is something I believe Wonder Woman would take advantage of... but also making sure the public isn't seeing too much of her goofy side.

For me, I love location shoots! Madison had a bunch of different banisters and different rocks to climb on... my photographer says next time he is filming the ridiculous things I do in order to attempt to get a cool shot haha (key word is attempt..) I really wanted to climb a tree.. but I got to say, gladiator sandals don't have enough grip for that... note to fellow cosplayers maybe bring tennis shoes to climb trees. I think we are going to get some different looks from Wonder Woman this time and I hope that you guys like them... again they are different. Wonder Woman is my favorite comic book character and getting to pretend to be her at cons is a dream! Thanks for all the support throughout these months and I can't wait to show you more!

 

Love,

Victori Belle

COSPLAYER OF THE WEEK | VICTORI BELLE

Victori Belle aka Tori Clark
Chicagoland Cosplayer

Victori Belle has been cosplay since 2013 and started her cosplaying career in St. Louis at Wizard World. Cosplaying is a way for Victori to express herself and connect with people around the world.

After having success as a NBC Reporter in Rockford and winning a Chicago Midwest Emmy for her photography she quit her job to follow her passions. Victori Belle turned to professional cosplaying and acting in the summer of 2016. She has been a featured guest in more than 10 conventions this year throughout the Midwest. Everyday and every convention she attends, she tries to learn skills from fellow cosplayers and gain new techniques that she can put towards her costuming. Her favorite part of any convention is connecting with people... and possibly partying with them afterwards. :)

When Victori isn't at conventions or costuming she is working on her other job as an actress. She is currently a co-host on Deadgar's Dark Coffin Classics, Stacey Slaughter on the Deadersons and on weekly for the Change the F'UP Podcast. These shows are currently on TV in Milwaukee Wisconsin.
