I first met Devin at Colossalcon, I believe almost 5 years ago. He was wielding a camera, immensely shy, but super sweet and very welcoming. In those 5 years, I have spoken about so many wonderful things and watched him really develop his talents and create this business for himself. He is such an amazing friend, a great photographer, and such a great pillar in the community, and he deserves all the respect and kind words you can give him. One of these days I will get to meet his sugar gliders and it will be GLORIOUS. On a side note, if you have time around July, definitely check out his convention Akaicon. It's a wonderful convention in Tennessee and they do so many wonderful things that not a lot of other cons do. They have a wide variety of panels, a cosplay burlesque show, a great variety of artists and vendors, and a huge gaming area. Their staff are amazing and even though it smaller than say ACen, it's always worth the drive and I have never felt safer at a con. Anyways, enough about the con, let's talk about Devin.
