Nope, how tempting it maybe to see my doll in the spotlight. She is already participating in an other photo shoot. I'll wait how that turns out, when her picture is on display for hundreds to see. Some members have 4 to 6 dolls, I have only one. I'll be lost without her if anything happens. :(

I am curious how many people have a Real Doll in the Netherlands, I think I might be suprised!

Hi Chris,
I am not sure, but you may have to include the UK in your quest.

I'm a Real Doll owner from the Netherlands as well, but I'm not interested in doing anything media related.

Today Christel visited me and my dolls :D

As most of us, first I was suspicious - another photo journalist interested in dolls :? In our PMs I told her my rules and she agreed and I invited her.
I guess she was a bit nervous/curious to meet a doll owner, and so was I, as we both didn't know what to expect.
Christel was very nice, very respectful - we had a nice and open talk about my dolls, dolls and the doll community.
She did a photo shoot with all of my dolls. She was really surprised by the details of the 4Woods dolls, but she was most impressed by my Anatomical doll, especially Eveshka (the Oksana head).

Probably a selection of her photos will be published at CoverDoll.

Here's a picture of Christel with Lily and Sacha 8)

It was really fun, and I'm looking forward to see all her photos :D

Hi Nescio,
I think this photo shoot went more than good and I´m looking forward to see the result. Now we have a threesome of female photographers with adorable Stacey, Benita and Christel shooting dolls. Congratulations to you,
Chris

G'day everyone,...


I'm looking forward to seeing the photo's myself.
I'd love to see the results.

Nescio, your girls are perfect ambassadors for this hobby.
We love seeing them anytime.

That looks just like Benita's shots. Natural lighting soft poses... Same photos different outfits!


At least the dolls are pretty as is your home. But I wonder when the subject of exploiting owners with their dolls for needed attention by photographers, will grow old. From Elena Dorfman all the way to Benita, I guess the world will never tire of the subject.

Maybe I should take pics of guys with their dolls too. It seems like everybody is doing it!

:D

To the OP,

I'd love to see the vogue featuring your work.. I'm guessing you do not mean vogue Italia's photo vogue, but actually vogue the magazine.

Same dolls different photos! :wink:
I expect Christel's photos to be different (different style) than Benita's.
All yesterday's pictures are just the dolls - there are no pictures of me (be happy, the dolls are much prettier :lol: )


Stacy, you are always welcome to photograph my dolls at my home 8) whenever you visit Europe.

Well I can't wait to see the photos when they are shown :) .

From the photo above I must say that Christel does look like Benita from the back.

Why not? I suspect many owners would feel far more comfortable around you because you are actually a part of the community and work in doll photography. In which case, you are probably more qualified than anyone else to do this sort of thing and would definitely know what angles to approach it from with care and taste. Personally, I would love to see you do a documentary on owners, along with your own personal history and work. Who knows? It might even get your name and work out there even more.
