I have been longing to add to my doll series for the last while. Today I decided to simplify the process and photograph on digital rather than film on my 4x5 view camera. These dolls are not meant to be scary or invoke images of demented dolls from horror films. My thinking is that at one time these dolls were loved and cherished and yet they often end up looking a bit the worse for wear and lying around in buckets of discarded toys. I approach these portraits as I would a person, trying to find some truth.
As I go through my collection of dolls, amazed by the variety.
