Please enjoy this epic Astrid Cosplay of How to Train Your Dragon 2 by the Ninja of General Ninja Cosplay.

This cosplay photoshoot was actually done in two locations – one outdoors during a snow on Mingus Mountain, the other indoors (where it was much much warmer).

The shoot on Mingus Mountain (near Prescott Valley, Arizona) was incredible, we had an amazing variety of clear, fog, and snow that gave us great backdrops and added effects to the final photos. While the Ninja was only in a tank top, she handled the cold amazingly well and we were able to get an hour’s worth of photos.

For the indoor shoot we utilized a green screen in order to add a variety of backgrounds later. These images include the coastal shot, aurora borealis, and the pitch black with added snow.
