Large It's a Heat Wave (Iplehouse SID Eva)

It's a heat wave! Well, I'm not sure if it's 100% official, but it has been very hot and humid lately. I've been taking it easy, but Eva decided to have some summer fun in her bikini. She's keeping cool with a parasol and some ice cream! The sun peeked out a couple times during this shoot, but it mercifully went behind the clouds a lot of the time.

@hobbywhelmed Hobby! Long time no see! LOL at the ample Iple body. Even after all these years, I still think Eva's body is totally wonderful I'm glad I took an old friend's advice and got the large bust instead of the glamour bust for her. It's good for helping clothes to fit.

That older clip-on umbrella sounds like a good prop for dolls. I wonder if I can find something newer. I would be curious if the handle would be doll-appropriate or if I'd have to mod it. One thing that's good about this one parasol is that the handle fits in Eva's hand.

I just checked a weather history for the past week. Earlier last week was in the 80s, but we got into the 90s for the holiday weekend.

@Terminus_Est Well, I could've used my mini sunscreen bottle in one of the shots, but just imagine Eva used it off camera Thank you

 

She wasn't out very long, and it was more cloudy than not. She'll be okay I actually had the doll-sized bottle of sunscreen with me, but I didn't use it. I used it at the last New York City doll meet I went to, though! Anyway, thank you

 

Thank you! I'm blessed to have such surroundings to take dolly photos in

 

Thank you, animemom Yes, no mosquito bites is always a good thing She's blessed, in both form and function. We were careful to get the photos done as soon as possible, so Eva didn't get too much sun. It was cloudy that day which helped a lot.

 

Thank you! I love my Eva so much

 

Thank you so much I had a good time posing Eva for these photos. I had to do some tricks to get everything to work out the way I wanted. If I remember correctly, for the shots with the parasol, I had the bottom of a doll stand behind her. Eva would have fallen backwards if I just had her posed like this. I positioned everything so I could hide the stand from view. I may have done some amateur freeware Photoshop in order to remove some of the stand, too. I can't remember.

I've had this tiny camera for years. It is a lot of fun for the dolls. Since she was in the garden, I decided she could take advantage of it and do a little photography in her bikini Eva's not a big photographer, but she does it sometimes.
