So another convention has come and gone. This past weekend was the Pacific Media Expo otherwise known as PMX. What is PMX? Well it’s an expo that features media .. from the pacific. … Yeah, I can really paint a picture.
If you’re into anime, j-rock, lolita manga or anything related to the Japanese culture, chances are they’re going to have something there for you to enjoy.
PMX is a small convention, but it’s size both hurts and helps it. Because it’s small there isn’t a whole lot for you to do, but also, because of it’s condensed size it’s a perfect convention to just hang out with some old friends or even make some new ones.
There weren’t a lot of cosplayers there, but what it lacked in cosplay it made up for in lolita fashion. .. Or maybe it just seemed that way because of the people I was around during the Con.
They even had a lolita fashion show. .. Which I attended .. Yay …
Angelic Pretty Lolita Fashion Show – PMX 2009
I only shot the Angelic Pretty portion of the show, because they also had a shop set up at the Con, and we had to zip over there to be the first in line after the show. Luckily we were, and Maiyu managed to get the dress she eyed at the show. I was given the privilege of snapping the first photos of her in her new dress.
Here are a few of my favorites from the shoot:
It seems to me that the lolita craze is becoming more and more popular, which could be a good or bad thing depending on your point of view. Me personally I don’t mind it. In fact a part of me rather enjoys it. I get to take photos of girls dressed as dolls, and they have fun doing it.
I didn’t get to experience every aspect of the Con. There were a few minor details that slipped passed me, but what I did get to experience, I had fun with. Again; the con isn’t very big, but if you play your cards right it can be a very enjoyable experience. It’s a con that is very much what you make of it.
.. Oh and if anyone can tell me how to embed video onto hear, that’d be great.
