Some simple shots of Shion in regular clothes. At least it was supposed to be simple. From the first two shots, it ended up evolving into something else, but nonetheless, I was happy to challenge myself. I am pleased with how all these shots turned out, despite being photographed with the same pose (not something I do normally, but Shion looked cute from every angle!).

Wow! These are gorgeous and glamorous, with marvelous lighting and a sweet, soft feel to them!

Such lovely portraits! The garden setting looks fabulous. I like them all, but the second one is sweet, and the 3rd and 5th ones are just beautiful. She looks a little melancholy in the last one, and I wish I had such a peaceful looking spot to go when I feel that way!

Nanette and Yamato are such a lovely couple, I really like to see them together, and liked their storyline in your photostories.
And I, too, agree with how good and lively their posing is, especially in the picture where they are about to kiss, awww!
Shion is still my favourite of your crew, such a lovely girl! She looks wonderful in regular clothes. That white dress and the soft blur in the photos make up for a very innocent look.

Thank you Elfy and Loona! Now, that my dissertation is completed (I have a doctorate now!), I hope to start back working on my photostories soon.
I swapped wigs for Gianna (again) a while ago! But, I thought it would be a cute look for the summer!

Congratulations DOCTOR AIJO!
In what field is your PhD? That is a MAJOR accomplishment!
These lovely images suggest you may have earned your degree in Dolly Portraiture!
Again, congratulations on your impressive achievement!

Thank you so much davidd! It's actually an educational doctorate (EdD). I received a degree in educational leadership. I think I've been in university almost as long as I've done photography, so perhaps!!!

I guess that makes you my boss, as I have only an MAEd!

Ooo, pretty. That colour is great with her eyes. The blouse looks cute too. Did you do her faceup?
Congrats on your doctorate! Hope you can take a little time to relax and celebrate after all that work.

No worries! We're all on the same playing field!
@Alliecat: Thank you so much! It's a little jumpsuit I found at Target. ^^ And, yes, I did. She reminded me of why I don't do faceups.
Thank you so much!

I wanted to introduce the second (yes, there is another) newest member of my dolly crew: Grayson! Grayson is based off a character I designed on a Korean social app called Zepeto. I loved this character so much that I had him turned into a doll. He was customized by Rachel of KuddlePussKustoms on Etsy, and she did an excellent job! You can check out his profile here!

I love sunglasses on dolls. It’s so hard to get them for Pullips, especially cool ones like here.
