Vintage Flower Child

Hello. ^-^
     Spring-break is giving me loads of time to utilize the Canon Rebel. Hence these photos. Here is Emily, our vintage flower child!











































     I included all the photos, even the truly terrible ones, because I think it's nice to see that not all the pictures I took turned out decent. In fact, most don't! And that's ok. It's part of photography, and a part I actually happen to enjoy. It's so exciting when you finally get a good shot!

She Who Arranges Rocks

Hey!
     I received a Kaya mini-doll for Christmas, thus inspiring my very first mini-shoot! It was fun. I'm definitely still learning the ropes of this fancy new camera, but boy is it exciting! I feel quite professional. ;) On to the photos!





















      Mini-shoots are easy to do. It's much less time-consuming than the work that goes into a full-on photoshoot. Then again, I don't enjoy the result quite as much. I think they look less realistic, and the fact that this is a doll is sort of in-your-face. I think this type of shoot is much more entertaining for the photographer than the viewer, as I got to try out different settings on my camera to fit the smaller focus. Nonetheless, I hope you like these pictures anyhow. Let me know which one is your favorite!

A REAL CAMERA!

Hi!
     I'm so happy to be here. I left for a long time because the content I was posting just wasn't satisfactory; it wasn't worth it. But something amazing has happened. I am so blessed with the privilege to use a REAL CAMERA! It's a Canon Rebel t5, and while it's not fully mine, but my brother's as well, it is absolutely wonderful! I have access to it for doll photos, and I adore it. I'm still getting the hang of it, but man, these are so much better than my iPhone 5 photos!
     I'm not going to bother with a lengthy apology for my absence. I know no one really cares- not in a mean way, but I don't think I let enough people hanging to have need for a pitiful explanation for not posting. I'm here though, and I hope you'll embrace me back into the blogiverse. :)





















     Some are good, some are awful. You have to remember that this was my first-ever photoshoot with this camera. I tried. 
     Again, I'm so glad to be back. Thanks for reading!
