I loved doing this exercise, but wish 2 things!
I wish I had more time to experiment.
I wish I would have had this experience before I photographed my models.
Fooling around with the lighting and posturing of dolls helped me understand soooo much more! Admitting though that soooo much more practice is still needed. TRY IT, IT'S FUN! Especially if you have a friend that you get to visit with at the same time, thanks Mik!
