Hi, I'm Rei.

I'm a photographer located in North Carolina.

I've been self-studying photography since 2014. It has always been a passion of mine to help others feel their best, so I strive to capture beautiful photos of clients that bring out the best in their features.

When I began my photography journey, I mainly focused on learning how to create stylistic photos of cosplayers. Cosplay is a huge hobby of mine, so I made a name for myself within my local community, capturing photos of comic book and anime characters that showcase the amazing work and dedication of other members of the craft. Along the way, I learned how to work well under various lighting conditions, becoming a master at editing who can transform photos with harsh sun glares into pieces of art.

The main place in which cosplayers tend to request photos of their work is at cosplay conventions, where the terrain and lighting vary greatly. I learned how to be adaptable on the spot, quickly shifting focus from one area to another. Not everyone wants photos outdoors with natural scenery, so I learned how to transform backgrounds into stylistic backdrops accompanied by colored lighting—something that brings cosplay photos to the next level.

Using the skills I developed over the years in the community, I decided to start offering my photography services in other ways, such as for fashion, casual, family, or senior portraits. My goal for 2025 is to focus on this aspect of my photography and become more fluent in the craft, expanding my abilities further. My ultimate goal is to take engagement and wedding photos, being able to capture happy moments during the happiest times of one's life.

You can find me on Instagram @blanksnowphotography for cosplay photos and @blanksnowphotographyco for family, casual, graduation, and event photos.
