>I personally think it is because cosplays put all their creativity on making the outfits they are all used up by the time it comes to photoshoots.

But there's a photographer there directing the cosplayer. I understand if we're talking about hallshots then it's ok to see bland posing as many cosplayers seem to forget that they would get their photo taken.

I'm talking about the photos that get circled around a lot from the professional/popular cosplayers. The cosplayers who have been in front of a camera countless times and plan extravagant photoshoots and pick well know photographers. Those photos always look so bland and just follow the same formula no matter who's posing and who's shooting. I'm not asking for dynamic lighting and crazy action shots. I think the picture below is a fantastic representation of what I want out of cosplay photography despite the simple outfits and location

I love this photo way too much
