by Jaime Whittaker (@JaimeW912)

Welcome back to post con life, nerds! In this edition I’m sharing with you some of the fabulous SDCC & Nerd HQ Cosplay that I saw. BONUS: Stick around and you’ll get to see a cosplay photo shoot that I am featured in, captured by the talented Chris Cruz!

Check out this adorable Negan. Isn’t his scowl just precious?

Elder Luke looks rather smashing

I’m honestly not sure what she is supposed to be but I loved her cosplay!

Queen Mira

The Chef from The Little Mermaid

Ghostbusters and a litte StayPuft Marshmallow cutie!

I can’t get over this amazing Labyrinth Group! (Photo taken by Jenine Lee)

I always look forward to seeing the puppets Jamie Bressler makes every year! Check out her website here. (Photo by Rachel Cheng)

And I just had to take a video of this cosplay in action:

Our Cosplay Photo Shoot

Okay, you’ve been patient. Our nerd family group began planning our cosplay for 2016 before the 2015 con had even ended! We decided we all wanted to dress up as characters from Once Upon a Time. After planning and crafting all year, our group looked amazing! (Be on the look out next week for my recap on Conversations for a Cause with Jennifer Morrison from Nerd HQ!).

We were lucky enough to have our very own photo session with Nerdy Cruz. As always, he did an amazing job. Check out the photos below!

Group shot

It was so much fun dressing up and our costumes were a really big hit! Let’s just say we had our pictures taken a lot that day. I can’t wait to see what next year’s group cosplay will bring…

Stay Nerdy, my friends!
