Shoot: Doll Memories (For Starlight Magazine)

Once again it's time for the a new issue of Starlight Magazine and this time I did a shoot for them to go with the Christmas theme. I decided not to do a very literal interpretation of the theme, but rather just grab elements from the classic fairy tale by H. C. Andersen - "The Steadfast Tin Soldier". Well, basically, I just used the characters. So they're these two dolls in an attic full of forgotten memories and when no people are around, they come to life.


Models: 
Lone (Ballerina)
Tenna (Soldier girl)

This shoot was very different from what I've done before in terms of location. This is up in the attic in my building. It was extremely difficult to light the rooms up there because of the dark wood everywhere and the lack of daylight. There are a few small windows, but the sun sets so early these days, so it was almost gone when we started shooting. It was definitely a challenge, but I tried to work with what I had and I like the result - They look so much like dolls :D
