NCP Photoshoot for A Cause 2017: "Cosplay Shoot for Charity going strong at sixth"

"Summer, Shutter, Fundraiser"

As summer and vacation starts in earnest, the National Cosplayers of the Philippines once again held their annual "Photoshoot For A Cause" event, which now is on its Sixth Year.  Of course, yours truly, having participated on last year's edition, was not going to let this one pass up.

Join me after the jump for the whole feature of this event:

NCP Photoshoot for A Cause 2016: A Photoshoot Event...with a Heart

It is not a secret that photography is my hobby and one of my favorite subjects to shoot are "cosplayers", so participating in photo shoots with some of them every once in a while has been a goal for me.  Having said that, I also look forward to participating in events that are for charitable causes.

Question: Can cosplay, photography, and charity go hand in hand in one event?

Conclusion:  Enter National Cosplayers of the Philippines (NCP) and their annual "Photoshoot for a Cause" event.

#Eckogram - 18th

Good Day, Peeps! It is time again for another  photo diary entry, although unfortunately, as much as I want to avoid it, there has been another gap between the last one and this. Anyway, you will know why once you read on this Eckogram entry.

So, let us get started with the eighteenth entry shall we?

Eckogram Entry 18:

#Eckogram - Seventeenth is Minion-Themed

Good Day, Peeps! Time again for another  photo diary entry. I feel I just cannot let the gap between entries go far too long, so I followed up on the last one a bit faster.

While browsing my Instagram uploads for the past few weeks, I noticed that most of them involves "Minions." Yes, those little yellow henchmen that has been the "in" thing lately because of the release of their movie. In light of this, I decided that I will playfully call this Eckogram entry a "Minion-themed" one.

So, let us get started with this Minion-themed entry, shall we?

#Eckogram - Sweet Sixteenth (16th)

Hey Peeps, Photo Diary time is here again.

I have concentrated on some articles/posts the past few weeks that I almost forgot that the 16th entry for this ongoing series is already due. My Bad.

Anyway, 16th entry equals Sweet Sixteen right? Let us see if indeed this entry is a "sweet" one. Let us get on with it, shall we?

Eckogram Entry 16:

"Ponyo, Ponyo, Ponyo Fishy in the Sea" - Allison's First Cosplay Experience (Toycon PH 2015)

We introduced our daughter to cosplay at age three - I guess that is "Parenting Done Right"

As yours truly is a fan of the cosplay culture (and also a frustrated cosplayer), I guess it is a given that the thought of having my little daughter being a "cosplayer" at a young age is always a very welcome idea for me.

That idea became a reality when we planned on attending the 14th Edition of ToyCon last June 19-21 at SM Megamall. As part of this annual event is people strutting their cosplay costumes and skills, me and my wife decided that we will have our daughter dress up as a character for the event (we attended the 2nd day - June 20). Not a bad idea right?

#Eckogram - Fifteenth (in) Summer

Hey peeps! After what seems to be an eternity of having no entry for the ongoing "Eckogram" section, here is a new one! Yay!

First of all, I have to apologize for the delay of this new entry. There has been a technically-related problem that I had to deal with before I was able to produce this new one. I would not delve too much into that, but let me just say that it involves the pictures; since this is a photo diary, problem with pictures is a critical one, right? Anyway, the good thing is everything is A-Okay now.

Now let us get on with it, shall we?

Eckogram Entry 15:

#Eckogram - "Fourteenth"

Oi Mates!  Again, here we are for another entry in my ongoing Photo Diary series. Well, It is the 14th one and I know for sure that if you are following the series, you for sure know the drill, eh? Here it goes:

Eckogram Entry 14:

#Eckogram - Friday (and) the 13th (entry)

Hello there! Today is Friday and the 13th day of the month - "Friday the 13th" as they call it - and incidentally, this is now the "Thirteenth" entry to my ongoing photo diary series. Talk about coincidence huh?! Anyway, here is the 13th Eckogram entry on a Friday the 13th:


Eckogram Entry 13:

#Eckogram - A Dozen (Twelfth)

Hello Peeps! it is time once again for an entry to the ongoing "Eckogram Photo Diary" series. This the twelfth entry and whad'ya know? We already have a total of a dozen now. Nice!
 
Without further ado, here it goes..

Eckogram Entry 12:

#Eckogram - " Eleventh Hour"

Okay, it is time again for another entry in our ongoing "Photo Diary" series. Hey! It caught me by surprise that this is now the 11th entry of this series. Knowing me, I regard the number 11 as one of my favorite numbers (See my Doctor Who-related posts to know why, LoL!).

The Eleventh Hour is upon us and I guess we should start now, shall we?
  
Author's note: Still, again, as part of the delay during the holiday season, some of the pictures in this entry are a mixture of pictures from the past month or two. However, the catching up process is about to end, so just bear with it my dear readers. As always,  they are worth your time. Thank you. 

Eckogram Entry 11:

#Eckogram - "Tenth"

Hey Folks, it is time again for another entry in our beloved "photo diary" series. This is the "10th" one, so that is a little bit of a "humble" milestone, do you agree?

Anyhow, let us get the ball rolling, shall we?

Author's note: Still, as part of the delay that was mentioned on the last entry,  some of the pictures in this and the succeeding entries will be a mixture of pictures from the past month or two, a sort of "catching up" process. As always,  they are worth your time. Thank you.
 
Eckogram Entry 10:

#Eckogram - Cloud Nine

Okay, it has been a really long while since the eight entry on the "Eckogram Diary" Series (About a shade over one month, IMO). Again, I apologize for that. The Holidays proved to be a little bit busy than what my two hands and one brain can handle and thus, a lot of archived drafts had been collecting cobwebs for the past week or two.

To make up for lost time, let us start to get things rolling with the Ninth entry of this series. Here it goes. 

Author's note: I just want to point out that due to the delay, some of the pictures in this and the succeeding entries will be a mixture of pictures from the past month or two, still they are worth your time, nonetheless. Thank you.

#Eckogram - Aces & Eights
