When I was in junior high, I used to wake up at 6AM and sneak into the living room so I could turn on the TV and watch Sailor Moon. My parents were very strict, and 6AM was definitely *not* the time to watch TV. Never mind that I had to get ready for school in 30 minutes. But being the die hard fan that I was (and still am), I did it anyway and darn the consequences. I had to see Serena fight the evil horde and become Sailor Moon; I had to know if Tuxedo Mask was really Darian, and even more important than the battle between good and evil, could their love possibly blossom…?
Other than Disney’s the Little Mermaid, Sailor Moon had captured my young imagination like no other. (And no, Sailor Moon had nothing to do with my eventually becoming an actual sailor in the US. Navy…That was Top Gun and a whole ‘nother story…) Of course, I couldn’t resist the temptation. When my Quadra lights came in the mail last year, the first thing I did was call my friend Laurie and ask her to step up to be the super hero I knew she was. And if you’re wondering: yes, I did have a Sailor Moon suit in my closet. The yellow wig too. We’re all allowed some vices



We didn’t encounter any bad guys during the shoot, and honestly, the only martial arts I know is from watching Ip Man, but we did kick butt in the fun department. Special shout out to our friend Ali. I couldn’t have done it without her help with the Quadra lights!
PS. Are you a die hard fan of something? Can you use it in a photo shoot?
