Katsucon Caught on Camera
How to get your cosplay photographedWhat is Katsucon?
Katsucon is an annual 3-day fan convention held in the D.C. metro area for multicultural enthusiasts and entertainment dedicated to bringing information about Japanese animation, society, and traditional and popular culture to fans everywhere.
Spontaneous Photos
During the convention we capture images of the most elaborate and creative costumes, impressive makeup jobs, and potential future models.
Make it past our team of editors, and you'll be featured in our photography tribute to Katsucon.
Look for photographers wearing our logo.
