Halloween Costumes – Street Photography Photowalk in Osaka, Japan 2015

Halloween is increasingly popular in Japan, and in 2015 I decided to join the Kansai Photographers Meetup Group for a Halloween Photowalk. These photos were taken with a SONY RX100 M3.

The White Guy from Mad Max Fury Road

We started while there was still a bit of light and I was lucky enough to get a shot of this guy in a great costume on his way to an event. I had to ask what he was after taking the shot, and he explained that he was the “White Guy from Mad Max Fury Road” I haven’t seen the movie so his description was lost on me, but I got the point. Great costume nonetheless.

C’mon Barbies Let’s Go Party…

I saw these girls crossing the street in their Barbie doll packaging and when I lifted my camera they kindly posed.

This is the video that inspired the title for this photo:

Cold Titan

This Titan might be posing with confidence, but he was complaining about freezing this Halloween night. I think so were the other people who came in tights.

During this year’s Halloween Photo walk,
I was very lucky to run into local Osaka
Event Producer C4ND1M4N. His Halloween costumes are more than exceptional and this year certainly didn’t disappoint!
