Just answering a few questions I see asked a lot about our cosplay:
Q: Do you make your own costumes?
A: Yes, we make everything ourselves (with help from our moms, lol) but nothing is a purchased, pre-made costume, we cosplay mostly for the craft, not as much for the play.  Sometimes we have a plushie with us that's made by another artist, but all the clothes/weapons/props are ours.  And of course, some plain clothes elements are store bought but it would usually be altered/assembled by us.
Q: Can I post your pictures on another site?
A: Yes, as long as you link back to the original image somewhere, and if there are credits for
