How to Find Locations for Cosplay Photoshoots

Finding the perfect spot for a cosplay photoshoot can be a challenge. From accessibility to whether it fits the theme of your character, there's many logistics you need to consider when picking a place. So if you need help figuring out how to find locations for cosplay photoshoots, you've come to the right place.

Where to Find Locations for Cosplay Photoshoots

If you aren't sure where you can go to find different places, consider these online or in person resources:

• Peerspace - Peerspace is a great website to find venues you can rent for multiple hours and host photoshoots in. You can filter by location and see what the space looks like and whether it fits your needs for your character. Some even have multiple sets available in one venue and you can pay to have a group go if you and friends want to share the space.

• Asking photographers or cosplayers - Word of mouth is a reliable resource. Ask photographers or cosplayers you know where they like to do photoshoots. Or if you see a photo they share with a back drop you like, ask where it was shot at.

• Cos-Map - There's also the site cos-map. You can find perfect photoshoot spots that other cosplayers have shared and even add a few of your own. It gives information on locations, notable landmarks, whether it's private or public access, permit requirements and even sometimes example photos.
