superwondergirl Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I will be coming up to the show on saturday, My son is very disabled and won't be able to come, What I would like to do is take as many pictures as I can to show him who and what was there. I hope everyone would allow me to take photoes, I know the stars are a different kettle of fish, but if I could take pictures of the que to get in - the biulding - outside and in , the stalls and stall holders, all the cosplayers, just so he can see and enjoy the show as well. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarfbabe Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I don't think anyone will have a problem with that. You'll see loads of people walking around taking photos of anything and everything. Some of the cosplayers may even be happy to pose for you if you ask them.

Queen_Sindel Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 General pictures are normally fine, like queues or buildings or general overview if the stalls. If you're trying to take more detailed pictures of single stalls I am sure the stallholders will have no problems with it if you explain about your son. And the cosplayers are always happy to pose if you ask for a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsEllacott Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I am bringing my autistic son, but will explain to people about him if needs be.I find people were very understanding when I took him to LFCC, so I am sure they will be as well if you explain about your son.

dragonsanddaffodils Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Next time you are at a show, go to the organisers booth and there is a system now where we can help you get through queues easier No need for you to struggle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookie Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Here's an idea - maybe you could make a little sign saying "Hi (your son's name)!" or something and ask cosplayers to hold it when you take a photo of them! I've always found cosplayers are more than happy to have someone compliment their costume and have a photo, as usually a lot of time and effort has gone into making it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minimum issues with my son as a result. So I would suggest using it, aseefsid, so you don't miss out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jassie Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I use the system too as my son is Autistic and I am disabled and find queuing super difficult. We attend LFCC and EMS every year. Showmasters certainly make it easier for us and the cosplayers and staff are all wonderful. I think the sign is a great idea, you could even blow up a photo of your son on the sign so that he is kind of there. I know for sure that they will all be more than willing to do the photos as they are fantastic with my boys, have a great time and hope all the photos you get make him smile loads! xx Next time you are at a show, go to the organisers booth and there is a system now where we can help you get through queues easier No need for you to struggle I use this system and it definitely helps!
