Today I want to share something a little different. No one in my family other than my husband is really interested in my dolls, so when my granddaughter, Teagan, brought her new Our Generation doll that she'd received for Christmas, along on her weekly Saturday morning visit in the end of December, she noticed my little photo set-up on the dining room table - the one I'd been using all Holiday season - and asked about taking a picture of her doll there. Excellent idea!! It would be fun for her, but also from a purely selfish perspective, maybe I could train some future BJD lovers to talk dolls with. So I posed her doll and snapped a few photos, then printed them out for her......
The following Saturday Teagan brought another doll - one she'd received for her birthday - asked about taking another picture. I still had all the tiny balloons from my doll's New Years's portrait, so they'd be fun to include. Natalya, another granddaughter, whose into My Little Ponies in a big way, had brought two of her Ponies, and asked to have them included in some pictures as well.....
I printed out pictures for both the girls to take home.
Today, Teagan brought another doll, this one dressed in a hiking outfit, and with the
picnic set we'd given her for her birthday. She was all eager to take some more pictures,
and with it snowing outside, we set up a little outdoorsy scene in the studio....

Natalya brought her ponies again, and wanted them in the photos too.....
Natalya told me that she had written a little story about the pictures we took last time, and had taken it to school to read to her class. Okay then, time for some really story-worthy pictures......
I'm sure everyone is recognizing my Christmas room setting and many of my props. They work just as well for my granddaughter's dolls and ponies as they do for my own dolls. And it's so much fun! I'm curious to see how long they will be interested in bringing their dolls and ponies for pictures. Maybe I'll get some 'doll buddies' after all!
Better go print out the pictures so they can take them home.....
