My name is Alyssa, but you can also call me Spufflez! I've been cosplaying since 2012 and creating my own cosplays and props since 2013! I'm fairly new to the cosplay community, but I am already in love with the cosplay and convention scene. I'm quite enamored with the art of costuming and hope to continue to share my passion for my favourite series and characters through my cosplaying, vlogging, and photography!

I started a video series on my Youtube about Cosplaying with Chronic Illness and the various struggles that I face as an individual with Crohn's Disease. I was diagnosed back in 2015, which was my very last semester of college, so it came as quite a shock to me. I've been doing my best to get through life while having a chronic condition and wanted to start a video series talking about how illness has effected me in the hopes that my words will reach another person struggling with their own chronic illnesses.  I want to be an advocate for anyone and everyone living with disabilities and illnesses.


With every cosplay I complete and every shoot I have I am one step closer to creating a portfolio that I can look back and be proud of! I was an art student back in high school, so being able to create stuff with my own hands and share it with the world is an amazing feeling for me. I taught myself how to hand sew and recently got a sewing machine that I've been using for more and more of my projects. I still draw in my spare time and update my DeviantART with new work whenever I get the chance. I also make some pretty cute handmade bows that I sell on my Storenvy!

I made this page for anyone who enjoys my cosplaying, photography, or art and would like to help me be able to create more! I really enjoy crafting and sewing, but I make sure that my real life obligations come first and foremost. I desire to be more active in the cosplay community and do my best to support my fellow artists whenever I get the chance. In my free time at conventions and events I take photos of other cosplayers on my personal camera. I would really love to be able to upgrade my camera at some point in time so I can continue to improve on my cosplay portraiture.


You can check out some more of my work on my various social media accounts! I tend to update on Twitter and Tumblr the most, but I am planning on updating my portfolio on Facebook and Cospix some more in my free time. I put all of my favourite works, both cosplay and art related, up on my DeviantART account. I urge you to peruse my portfolio at your leisure to see some examples of my work. I have photos of other cosplayers I've worked with at cons along with some photos of other things in my daily life that inspire me up on my Flickr account.

I also do a bit of happy-go-lucky vlogging in my spare time and upload my videos onto my Youtube Channel. I love vlogging at conventions and sharing my experiences with the world. I find it extremely fun to be able to share my convention moments and report on cons and cosplay events in vlog form. I invite you to check out my videos on there if you'd like to join me in my cosplay journey and indulge in some of my sillier moments. Being able to make videos is another way that I can express myself and my creativity. I plan on saving up for better equipment so I'm able to improve on my videos and deliver better quality content to my supporters.


I endeavor to continue improving on both my cosplaying and my photography in the coming years! I want to really push myself so that I am able to up my game with every project that I do. Thank you all so much for taking the time to read my story. It truly means so much to me to have your support with my art, and I am super grateful that I have a platform with which I am able to share my work on. I plan on creating for years to come and invite you all to come along with me on this journey.
