Even though she just arrived today, she has given me plenty to think about, some of which I’ve written down below. All in all, I’m pretty amazed and pleased. Pretty excited about the possibilities, even though I still have much to learn in regards to makeup, hair, and clothing (I foresee buying a sewing machine in my future as well). I decided to set up a small studio and use dolls as my models for fashion and cosplay photography. Normally, I’d travel, go hiking and camping, and do lots of landscape and astrophotography. Due to my contract at work, I’m about to have to few months off starting at the end of the year.

Takiko (瀧子 – waterfall) is my first life-sized doll, purchased to be a photo model.
