Throwback thursday and I bring you today my Living Dolls concept from a shoot back in 2010 while we were living on Oahu, Hawaii. This idea came about after I had met worked with model Alysha and had come across another model, Kristen. Both girls are beautiful but also had a quality that reminded me of dolls. So with the help of my make up artist, Melissa Hurley, we transformed the models into china dolls. Alysha's Outfit I put together from two different dresses I found from vintage shops. Kristen's blouse came from Target and I sewed her skirt from my own design without a pattern. I loved that pink skirt because it was my first time to put bustles into a garment The models were accompanied by china dolls I found from vintage stores and used a bit of trick photography and post processing to put them on bookshelves. Overall it was a fun shoot that we shot with the use of my then new Alien Bees lighting equipment.
Here are the final edits from the Lolita Living Doll shoot
and make sure to check out the Behind the Scenes video at the end of the post.

You're welcome and thank you for coming over to read the blog yesterday. I think my favourite part about the models were their heightened eyebrows made by the make up artist, Melissa Hurley, they helped the 'creepily cool' factor.
