Hello
I am looking forward to your picture.

Jennifer is coming home soon.
She went to the hospital with a broken bone for 6 months.
I am looking forward to seeing a model of the photos.
This is her before hospitalization.

Hello
jennifer is my favorite face.
jennifer # 30 is a little bigger than other girlfriends.
She is 148 cm.
The girls I always use for photos are 135 cm.
There are two heads at 148 cm. It is jennifer # 30 and Viola # 8.
It is an old picture, but it is two faces.

I wish I could have sexy photos like your Taylor.
I think jennifer will arrive in about a week.
Please look at the pictures at that time.
I will be waiting for your Taylor photos.

I found a lot of your photos.
Your girl's pubic hair is very sexy

Your photos are great man :) Allot of adding more realism comes from using lace front wigs or wigs that have hairs that resemble the look and color and texture of human hair. Also I don't use the factory eyes. I make my own so it adds a little more realism. But I do like the eyes of your ladies though! It's all about little changes added together. :)

Thanks for the advice
I use 4 LED spotlights.
The position of the focus can not be changed because the camera is old
There are so many failed pictures.
But I will aim for your picture.
If you photograph against that much sunlight outside you need to either be able to adjust like these numbers 5.6 - 22 like if possible F11 or so that makes the outside light darker but you also need stronger light for inside. Not sure what those LED lights can do.
I would start out with one light, more lights creates cross shadows and even I am struggling with that and can cause more outlines which creates the illusion of an unsharp picture.
Try to create a strong shadow like a Rembrand one where the nose creates some shadow on the other cheek ( basically it's like a triangle of light but forget that for now :)
My cheap 50mm macro lens is between 35 and 50 euro or so. It is a prime lens, which means that it can not zoom which makes you look better at angles instead of lazy zooming plus if you go smaller than 50mm it is extremely hard to avoid wide angle effects like getting things deformed on your photo. If you were to photograph from the legs the legs get much longer for instance. This happens easily with phone cameras.

What camera is it? Failed pictures are normal the thing is you need to throw them away and learn to pick only the good ones or redo it better if you still have energie left.


You want to be paying attention to everything, often let the hands do something and in my case the fingers are quite bad quality so all the iron little wires are already removed and she has no strength in her fingers so I have to try and correct each finger until it holds pose


If you make a doll stare you need to place the eyes with your finger very well otherwise you get that creepy non-human stare. Also the title 'Staring at Heaven' helps it, staring at her is looking at heaven and she looking up staring at heaven

The only Photoshop work here is removing seams and all the horrible damage she has because they sent me a test-doll instead of a new one. The main light is a simple long standing (found at garbage broken) halogen light. Used some fill lights from my kitchen sink where it's photographed on and one 75Watt fluorescent lamp to get some overall light in there.

(If you're holding something take some effort to bend the fingers, if you do that start at the base of the metal rod and work your way up. Bend slowly and with counterforce that will keep them working much longer. Another thing is that you can try to avoid correcting them everytime she actually just lying there but something bumped in it like your sheet and the fingers look all creepy and messed up. Correct them when you are going to be with her or take photos)

Even if I underexpose with the right composition and still creating shadows it looks far more real

Only the letters have been photoshopped, all the effort is in the pose, dressing etc

Thank you for always commenting.
I like the middle eyes between bright gray and blue.
But there is no doll eye that is exactly the size.
Iris is too big for eyes of about 30 mm.
Eye 25mm is exactly right, but many cavities are made.

My camera is old type.It is an automatic focus, but it is a type that can not select that point.
About 40% is the focus failure.

Your picture feels like moving.
It is a wonderful technique.

I only have social security minimal income as they say it, so I have to do everything from that income. So, it can be done. I just don't drive a car or ever eat or go out, vacactions etc. I buy something expensive and then pay it back, because saving for something sucks really bad. So in the years I've done that constantly and that's why some people look at my home and say wtf, how do you do that. Even with a job I don't have that, but they're just spending a tremendous amount on going out or ordering food etc etc.

See how the details come out much better, veins, muscles etc.
The focuspoint of that camera could probably be in the middle so you have to focus on anything that has a good difference in contrast. Either a shadow/light line, the edge of anything etc. Any camera can only focus on stuff like that.

My kitchensink is always dirty and gross, 1 or 2 days in the week I clean it sometimes with help. So, I'm not like superclean or something, I just hate sitting in all this mess but at the other hand I don't have much discipline for anything and I'm doing 15 things at the same time. In the years I get beautiful things done but everything takes much longer with me, usually. My standards are often much higher because I always tend to look up to others how I want to do or complete things except for stuff like doing dishes, cleaning the bathroom, etc lol

Doing massive redecoration project for 2 years now, some things just stopped but overall I've come a long way doing things that you don't see on the Internet. So, the originality is kind of in my blood it's a curse and a blessing at the same time.

More practice is necessary.
It will be harder for more than two people, but I will do my best.
Drapes, shawls and scarves can be useful ‘props’ to tantalisingly hide certain ‘bits’ rather than clothes themselves.
hollows + fentiman
That is a good idea.
I will also try it.
That is right, I've always avoided that and also no need for relationships anymore. So yeah I understand.

I ordered hundreds of items from this site, back then started at Dealextreme then went to Aliexpress

This lamp could be all you need lol 9 euro 150Watt

Thank you for many comments and advice.
Photographing multiple girls is very difficult.
It is the 2 girls who shot a long time ago.

The way to pose is four times more difficult.
Either one will surely be hidden.
One person shadows adjustment of lighting.
