Dragon Con always has a lot going on and no one can see or do it all. There are hundreds of panels on a million different topics, TV and voice personalities, authors, artists, merchants to shop at, or you can just walk around and gawk at everything around you.
One of the big things people do is cosplay (usually while doing everything else). When you get this many cosplayers together, themes start to form. You see the costume on different people, others from the same series or movie, variants of those characters, etc. Most of these cohesively-related groups get together at some point over the weekend for photo shoots.

Thanks to our good friend Leo of Nocedo Photo Media, we get to see some of these photo shoots. He went nuts covering some of them. One of the biggest shoots this weekend was Barbie. It was a sea of pink and neon with over 600 attendees at that shoot alone. Other shoots he covered were Star Wars, Resident Evil, Power Rangers, Spaceballs, Vikings, Stranger Things, and the list goes on.
You can head over to their Facebook Album to see the rest of the Friday shoots as this is only a bare sampling of what Leo achieved.
Keep an eye on Nocedo Photo Media for some other great photography work. You can find all of their links on Linktr.ee.
