Our Monthly Featured Photographer for December is Sotaichou:
The model for this photo shoot was Katarina. She is a doll combo of an Aria head and a Viola 135cm body. The camera I used for this photo shoot was a Canon EOS Rebel T3 with a EF-S 18-55mm lens. Other equipment I used were, a desk lamp with two dim levels, and a tripod. Photos were taken with and without a tripod. My main idea was to showcase specific target areas (like the face or the plaid pattern) and to do so I kept the f-stop setting as small as I could for each shot. I also used the flash as less as possible because I wanted to make the makeup work pop out as much while retaining a natural low light atmosphere. For any photo editing I normally use Photoshop, but I've started learning some of the Canon software that was included with the camera kit, which can really bring out the photos even more. Specifically, for this photo shoot, no editing was done. Also, as much as I tried focusing on the facial area, it was difficult not to display more angles of the model, as you can see. :D ~ Sotaichou |
Note from the Editor: Each month we will feature a different
photographer's work. We invite doll owners and manufacturers
alike to participate in this new monthly feature. Photo shoots must meet
a minimum quality level. If you do not meet that level we are happy to
work with you, critique your photos and help you to raise the bar on
your photography. Good photo shoots can be had with low cost digital
cameras. It is all in the technique.

Very nice shots, Sotaichou.
Very nice shots, Sotaichou. The closeup focused shots turned out great and so did her freckles and makeup. Almost too cute.

Hi Sotaichou, this is a great series, and a great job with the make up. Katerina looks very cute with her freckles and her red haired wig. And thank you for showing her cute feet as well. Chris
