When you take photos often, and you don't have enough accessories...

Hey hey dollies!

I have been taking photos more often lately

because my Instagram account

wouldn't feel "insta" enough if I post only

my old dolly photos...

But taking dolly shots often can pose 

quite a few challenges, at least for me:

1. I find it boring to take photos at the same places/location.

2. I run out of doll clothing.

(Need to make more mix and matchy items soon)

3. I realized that I don't have enough accessories for the girls.

4. Old poses get, well, old. I need to research, or come up

with stories in the future.

5. I have to clean up and prep the diorama again.

(it's currently a stockroom of sorts)

6. I need to add more diorama items.

.... and then some more...

So, the latest shoot I made was with Tamica and Ella,

wearing the wetsuit, and with Sue and Kei sporting the highneck halter bikini set.

The sun was shining that day, so since

I didn't make a new outfit for the girls yet, I thought I might

just improvise with the summer outfits.

Tamica and Ella

 I guess when you don't have much accessories,

you make do with what you have.

I pulled out the beach sands I collected in one of our trips,

and used my sushi making bamboo mat as a wooden fence to give the gals a beach-ey feel.

And I just can't help but give Kei a highlight here.

I just like the way she looks like a

calendar girl in this photo =)

So yeah.. all that jazz.

How about you, guys?
