    Freelance Photographer: Portrait, Street, Cosplay


    Tong Wu is a dynamic photographer based in London and China. Born in Wenzhou, China, in 2001, she grew up between Guangdong and Zhejiang, experiences that have deeply influenced her artistic vision. Currently, Tong is honing her craft in the MA Commercial Photography programme at London College of Communication, UAL.

    Tong’s work that spans fashion, street, portraiture, and cosplay photography. Her early fascination with animation and cosplay ignited a passion for capturing images, which was further nurtured during her undergraduate studies in fashion business. This journey led to a decisive commitment to photography as a career, with a specialisation in commercial photography. From her initial forays into fashion photography, Tong discovered a profound appreciation for capturing authentic moments. This approach underscores a philosophy of finding natural beauty and joy in everyday life, which remains central to her work.

    In more recent, Tong has turned towards a childhood dream of becoming a cosplay photographer, drawing significant inspiration from renowned Chinese cosplay photographer Qiwei Zoe (七味Zoe). Collaborations with diverse cosplayers and participation in London’s largest comic con event have cemented this path, blending personal passion with professional ambition to create evocative and memorable images.
