All of the pictures from this shoot were taken in one sitting. The light outside was mildly overcast but sunny enough to give the doll's skin a glow. Because you don't want your doll to appear washed out and that can happen when the lighting surrounding it is too 'white'.
Féonie's skin tone reflects all light though, so she is brilliant to photograph almost regardless of light.
Close-ups outside are always tricky because you have to be spot on to get the focus right. Gladly, I had an assistant helping me out: holding the doll perfectly still for me until my lens could pick up the details.
My favourite pictures are the bottom two. I find them interesting because they're different from the angles and styles I usually shoot. All in all, I'm extremely chuffed with the outcome of this shoot and I sincerely look forward to more exciting photo shoots.
Who should I shoot this month?
