If you have no idea why you're here, that's OK. If you're here because you chose to be here - bless your little heart. My name is Lani & I make up one 1/2 of the "Dynamic Cosplay Couple." My husband Sean is the other half. If you want to learn a little more about us, read the "About Us" section to the right of this post or stick around and read what may follow.
We weren't planning on starting our own blog, but being that we were contributing articles to other places and people have been asking us about: makeup tips, cosplay builds, multi-ethnic cosplay, cosplay bullying, gaming, reviews on products/conventions, etc - we decided to house our randomness here on blogger.
We're not your typical geeks. As a geeky blended family (<Sean + Lil Sean + 2 dogs> + <Lani + 2 cats> = Geeky Blended Family) we hope to inspire others out there who feel/felt that they have/had to hide their true selves from the outside world and/or to their potential partner(s) - to shed the mundane & be free to openly love their geeky selves.

Being that we are a FAMILY, a lot of what we share will come from that mindset - hope that's OK and is interesting for those who decide to join us for the ride.
Many of our past blogs have been shared on a site hosted & edited by a friend of mine called, Fanboy Planet. So to start us off I'm going to begin sharing our different blogs via Fanboy Planet, and you can read the blogs in their entirety on his site (which we will continue to guest blog on).
The 1st blog we wrote was about how we came to be the "Dynamic Cosplay Couple" and about our experience winning a trip to New York Comic Con in 2013! Here's a short excerpt:
Sean and I met as most couples do – in an LGBT nightclub. When we began to date our geekiness came out and we quickly realized that we were two nerds meant for each other! Now, almost four years later we are engaged and planning a geektastically glamorous wedding.
As for the birth of the “Dynamic Cosplay Couple,” both of us grew up loving makeup and costuming, but we didn't really know of the “cosplay” world. Instead we just found events (ie: Renaissance Faire) or reasons (ie: birthdays) to dress up in costume.
Our first official “cosplay” endeavor began almost two years ago at Fanime in San Jose. And we fell in love with the whole cosplay world!
