Nat Catches the Photography Bug

Last night while I was taking my older kids and their friends to a  Haunted House, Natalie stayed home and got a mini photography lesson from her Daddy. She has been taking photos of dolls everywhere since. Here are a few of my favorites.

Nicki relaxing on a gorgeous fall morning at the farm when we went over for breakfast.

Nicki wondering when her waffles would arrive.

Nicki getting to know Shannon and Leo, her Grandparents’ dogs.

The always beautiful Lauryce! Nice photo Nat!

Dee showing off the painting of the turtle that she just finished.

Nicolette is getting upset at Lillian for climbing up on life ring. Of course Lillian thinks Nicolette is over reacting.

Oh wow! What a beautiful close up of Ellowyne’s eyes.

I think Natalie did a great job of capturing the fun in Nicki in this photo. She looks ready to play.

And who can resist taking pictures of Fritz the cat off in kitty dreamland?

It definitely looks like my husband taught Natalie a few things about taking photos last night – these are great!

    Thirdie! Great job, Natalie, you’re an awesome photographer! Char, you should make a weekly feature with some of Nat’s photography!

  4. Char says:

    Kaylee – Natalie has a great imagination and I do like to feature her stories, ideas and now photos when I can. I can’t promise weekly, because she is a pretty busy 5th grader, but I will highlight her doll creativity as it is available.

    Great pics Natalie! Char- did you go to Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights, or just a Haunted House?

  15. Char says:

    They went to King’s Dominion’s (theme park) version of it – it was called Fear Fest last year, but I think they just call it Haunt this year.

  16. Delaney says:

    That’s really good Nat! Could you give me some lessons? LOL, just kidding.

    I’m going to the Fright Fest at Six Flags, we have season passes :-)

  17. Dakota says:

  19. Katie says:

    I like the one where Nicki is paired up with the dogs (Shannon, and Leo)! I love Nicki and I love how the photo turned out that way. Great job Natalie! :)

  20. Kaylee says:

    I’m so scared of haunted houses! There was one at Madame Tussaud’s in NYC when I went and I freaked out after my dad said you’re in pitch black and this zombie taps your shoulder from behind!

  21. emma says:

    These are so good! Dolls are actually what got me interested in photography. I have a lot on my blog if you want to click my name and see them.

  26. Amanda says:

    Wow, Natalie, you are quite the photographer! My cousin went to Halloween Horror Nights yesterday. I’m not really into all that “spooky” stuff though. But, you know, we all have our likes and opinions :- )

    Oh, and Char, I’ll send in that candle tutorial ASAP! Today I have alot to do… clean my room/bathroom, throw a birthday party for my dog (or at least plan one for tomorrow), do school (at least I’m homeschooled!), clean the house (a suprise for mom) annnnnnnnnnd…. yeah! OH OH OH! And make a packing list for a mother/daughter retreat me and my mom are going on. But, if I have some free time later tonight, I’ll send them in!

  27. Char says:

    Eileen – yes I did. I will get them posted this week.

  28. eileen says:

    Thanks, char!

  29. Nat’s got a good photographic eye. Good going, Nat!

  30. Allison says:

    Great job these are really good :)

  31. Claire says:

    So cute, Natalie!!!!

  32. Nina says:

    Good job Natalie! I love the one with Nicki at the table!

  33. Claire says:

    I love the one with the dogs, Nicki on the fence, and Fritz.

  34. Maddie says:

    The cat is so cute!!!

  35. Gail says:

    I love seeing everyones pictures of their dolls in their own little unique happy worlds!

  36. corinne says:

    Those are really awesome pictures!
    Char, would you recommend Ellowyne Raw Edges? I really like her and found a really good deal for her on eBay, but it ends in 2 days so I need to decide quickly.

  37. Char says:

    Corinne – I like Raw Edges, but I don’t recommend taking her hair down and half the fun of Ellowynes is doing their hair. So I just think you need to keep that in mind.

  38. Madelon says:

    Great photos!

  39. Skye says:

    Wow! Amazing photos!
