No, you may not. I am very generous with letting people use my photos and almost always say yes if they ask. But if you use it without permission, especially in the big upcoming contest, I will find out about it and report it. If this becomes a serious problem I will have to take further action in protecting my work. So please, guys, don't ruin it for everyone. I prefer to play nice.

Check out this video to find out how we did the cliff hanging shots, motorbike riding, and other photos featured in my latest shoot with Adam Jay of Superhero Photography.

Enjoy!

I was fortunate enough to have another shoot with Adam Jay of Superhero Photography the other day. It was a busy day full of photos, stunts, motorcycle crashes, and gorgeous sunsets. Once again, magic is made which seems to be a trend while working with this talented individual. I have started posting up the first of the photos but if you are eager to see them all right now, you can see them on facebook [link]

There are a few behind the scenes pictures and will be a behind the scenes video of our shoots in the coming week or two. Also, stay tuned for even more photo shoots very very soon.

Cheers!

Rumor has it there's a hacker on dA, hacking people and blocking our friends to make them block us! You'll then be banned from dA.

If I'm being a jerk, saying stuff like "Shut up," "Get lost", or "I don't want to see you on my page anymore", that's not really me. That's the hacker.

Went to Hopetoun Falls for an epic photoshoot for the upcoming Tomb Raider game. This location was spectacular and well worth the 3 hour drive at dawn to get there, as well as the insanely bitter cold weather. I got to try out my new climbing axe on real rock and for the terrain I was trekking, this thing was an absolute necessity. I can confidently say that the axe is the most useful tool that Lara will have in the game in my opinion. I also got to try my hand at some archery, shooting a bow for the very first time. (with no people or animals around, of course).

I am incredibly excited about how the pictures and videos came out and am eager to show them all to you!

Until then, happy raiding!

<3 Jenn

I know I have been getting some print requests on some of my photos. Unfortunately, Deviant Art will not sell you any prints of my Lara cosplay pictures, even if they aren't named Lara or categorized in cosplay.

Because of this, I opened a shutterfly account and have uploaded a few select pictures for anyone to buy prints from if they want them. I think they go up to 20x30.

You can view my prints gallery here:  [link]

Cheers!

And you should definitely check out the WIP on his latest project for the Tomb Raider Fan Art Competition:  [link]

He used one of my photos and did a lovely job. Thanks for picking me to be the lucky lady model for your piece and thanks for being awesome.

Now everyone go to his page [link] and look at all his wonderful art and show the guy some love!

I haven't had the chance to upload them here yet but you can check them out here: [link]

Enjoy!

I added a new gallery of images by Adam Jay of Superhero Photography, which include some photos I haven't yet uploaded onto my gallery here. Check it out! Otherwise, wait for me to upload the rest. Cheers!

I have finally gave in to the masses and created a twitter account. You can find and follow me here: [link] if that's your kinda thing.

Check it out here: [link] LOL, this is what happens when I get very bored on the weekend.

My video from the trip is finally complete.

It has come to my attention that a few Tomb Raider specific groups have recently started accepting nude raider "cosplay" photos. Although I may not personally like Nude Raider, I acknowledge that it is very popular among certain fans and is a piece of traditional Tomb Raider culture. I respect people's like for it and would not suggest to anyone that they shun this corner of the Tomb Raider community in any way.

I will, however, withdraw all of my pictures and leave any group that I discover to also contain naked pictures of Lara Croft, especially sexually suggestive and/or pornographic pictures.

I respect their choice to make/display this art but I cannot and do not wish to be affiliated with this in any way.

I am sorry to Cosplay-Raider [link] and Tomb-Raider-Empire [link] I offended you by doing this, but as a cosplayer I have my own personal standards and a certain reputation to maintain.

<3 Jenn

Sorry I've been away for the past few months. Cosplay had to be on a back burner for a while because of all the traveling I've been doing. Last month I went to my first base jumping event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Once a year, to celebrate the anniversary of KL Tower Menara, the locals invite 100 base jumpers to come jump off their tower for four days and two nights. It was the best vacation of my life. Check out the photo I just posted to see the awesome view of the city, and be on the lookout for the video I should have completed and edited by sometime next week.

In addition to Malaysia, I also had to travel back to California and managed to get in a base jump there as well, along with hanging out with friends I haven't seen in a while. On top of all this, I have started a rigorous workout regimen since I got back. I am now running 4 miles (~6.35km) per day and doing extensive strenth training. My body hates me but soon I hope to be back in top Croft shape!

I have been researching the perfect locations for a new Tomb Raider 2012 photoshoot and I think I may have found it. Planning will begin for it and hopefully this season I will be able to take the trip and make it an adventure.

Thanks for reading, everyone. Stay awesome.

I'm bored so I stole this from Athora-X, who has awesome Lara cosplay pics ^_^
