Doll Photography Tip #4 @ ChellyWood.com: Perspective #DollCollector #Dolls

What makes a doll look human-sized? That’s what I mean by “perspective” in this doll photography video.

Whether you’re in a studio or outdoors, one of the best things you can do to make the doll seem larger is to get down on the ground and take photos from the doll’s eye-level (or even below the doll’s level).

Another trick is to bring the doll up to your level. When I travel, if there’s a fence post or concrete wall nearby, I can stand my doll on that to make it seem like she’s human-sized.

Of course there’s more to it than that, and the video offers a few additional tips beyond this one. So take a moment to look through this very short video, and feel free to add your own tips and tricks in the comments below.
