As you may have noticed, it's been a little while since I have posted anything new. Between work, school, homework, and pretending to have a social life, I just haven't had the time to take any. Finally, though, I have something new.

Being that I'm a bit of a Loli-fanatic, I'm always ecstatic about a new dress. I had gotten another one recently, and wanted to get a few photos of myself in it. Not only that, but what goes better with Loli than Japanese candies from the Asian food market? Ha ha. Well, needless to say, there are actually going to be a few photos of myself popping up. These will PROBABLY not be featured, and possibly moved to scraps. Although they are photos of me, my D.A. is about MY photography. So don't forget to check them out!

After having taken those, I knew I had a "Tea Party" coming up, so I decided to wait before putting them on my computer. My good friend, Tierney, was supposed to be having a Loli Tea Party yesterday before her birthday party started. Unfortunately, I was the only Loli-fanatic that would have been able to come. Regardless of the ACTUAL tea party being canceled, she and I dressed up anyway. We took out her tea set, and I did a shoot of her, having "Tea Time". (The reason I put this in quotation marks is because there was absolutely nothing in the cups. -_-; She didn't want to have to clean them if we were only taking a few photos.) So, yes, I know it's corny without actual tea, but I still really loved some of these photos.

After her party, I headed over to Lance's house. I had been meaning to take photos of him in uniform for quite some time, because, honestly....Who doesn't adore black "Cracker Jacks"? Ha ha. I had him put on his Navy uniform, and did the shoot I've been meaning to do for quite a while. Some of the photos look really great, though I must say... Some of them make me feel like I'm looking at a non-existent, MALE '50s pinup photo. It's pretty excellent.

After we were done with that, he took a few more photos of me. I was still in that new dress (the party having been days later than when we had taken the first photos), but I had my dolls and Lolita deck of cards with me this time. The dolls I have are my dollfie, Kirill, and my handmade doll, Engel. Engel was a doll custom made by a friend of mine, Hono. She even sewed all the clothing and stitched the hair into her head. This doll is also special, because it's designed after the character that shares my pen name. The Lolita cards were created by "sadwonderland" on D.A., and I bought them off her Etsy shop. I really love the idea of these photos, so I hope everyone else can, too.

Enjoy!
