Redressed 30 cm BJDs

A cute dress made for 30 cm or 12-inch dolls

I purchased two dresses like the one shown in the leading picture to redress two of my 12-inch BJD dolls. 

Elan and Elin arrived in October 2015.

Elan and Elin have worn coordinated navy-blue and white fashions since their arrival in October 2015. They are now redressed in matching dresses and photographed with two different cameras as illustrated below.

Camera 1

With camera 1, I took two full-length photos of the girls. They were far apart in the first picture, so I moved them closer and took the second photo with camera 1.

Camera 2, Full-Length Photo

In the above full-length photo taken with camera 2 without the flash, their skin tones appear muted when compared to the color output with camera 1, including the color of Elin's honey blonde wig. This camera also captured some background shadows. When I used the flash with camera 2, the flash bounced off their complexions with visible flash areas. I deleted the flash photos taken with camera 2, but I can probably make some camera adjustments to eliminate the flash interference.

Camera 1, Close-up Photo

This close-up photo with camera 1 illustrates the color correctness of their complexions, hair colors, and clothing colors. There are no shadows in the background.

Camera 2, Close-up Photo

In the close-up photo taken with camera 2 without the flash, their complexions are again muted and there are visible background shadows, but the picture is sharp.

Camera 1, Two More Full-Length Photos

In this photo, Elin's chin juts out. 

Here, both girls have a more natural pose.

Camera 1 is a Canon PowerShot GLPH1090IS that is approximately 5 years old. It takes great inside photos with the flash on. Photos taken with the flash off are usually blurry. I had wanted to upgrade this camera for at least two years because of a lens malfunction that sometimes adds a shadow to a lower right corner photos unless I use the Zoom to zoom in a bit. 
In June 2024, I purchased a 4K vlogging digital camera. The resolution in most photos always seemed off with grainy-looking faded out photos. Last week, I decided to give it another try by making some adjustments to the preprogrammed features in the portrait mode. I'm not completely satisfied with the output using the current settings, but it's much better than the first photos taken last year. I will make additional adjustments to improve the resolution, clarity, colors, and eliminate background shading.
