Phew. So, another Anime Central is complete! At the time of this writing I’ve got something like 15-20 photoshoots scheduled. By the time you read this, I will be effectively brain dead. Nothing to do for it but veg out and marathon Game of Thrones! While I recover, I thought it would be fun to take a trip to ACENs past! I’ve been shooting there since 2009. This con had a lot of...
