Season 10 | Round 2 \\ Theme

I hinted at this one last round, so here is the round 2 theme:

My Holiday

This isn't meant for just any holiday. It's the late year holidays, like Christmas, HanukkahKwanzaa, etc.
I want your doll doing something that shows what you do for your holiday.

You have up until Sunday, January 5th 2013 \\ 12 am (central time) to get me your photo.

Also, a couple more things to remind you of:
This isn't an easy competition. I don't want you to treat it as such, therefore all photos you send in need to be taken especially for this theme. NO digging back into the archives.
Also, if you're in need of tips, a pep talk or are wondering how I will be judging, see here.

When taking your picture, please remember, what is the main focus of this photo? It's supposed to be the doll, and since the head is part of the doll, it needs to be in the picture.

While we're on that subject, I just want to remind you that you picked 1 doll to be in this contest with. One doll needs to be the main attraction of all the photos you take. Collages of all your dolls are cool, but that's not what we're looking for. Please make sure that your contest doll is in all the photos, yes, and all the collage photos with dolls in them (you can still have a collage photo of objects like pencils and paper, and even dogs etc., just make sure that any photos of dolls NEED to have your contest doll IN them, AND the main focus.

When you send in your picture, please attach it to the email, and in the subject line of the message put:
"[your name] with [your dolls name] | Round 1"

All photos will be enlarged to extra large in each results post.
How they look is your problem, not mine.
Change your camera settings to the largest size you have, and you'll be fine. (this is not my problem if they don't look like what they looked like in a smaller size)

This is my season, I will be doing the dates and extensions and everything in my own way. I give lots of thought to everything I do here, so please trust my decision.

I am a busy person. I'm in highschool, I do not have a lot of time. My schedule is quite packed, and it's hard for me to get to things really quickly. Please do not ask when I will post the photos, please do not tell me to post the photos. I'll get to it, I promise.

Special mentions:
Alisha with Stephanie - I love this one so much, the quality and lighting are superb, and it's very easy to tell what she's doing. The props obviously weren't just thrown in, but were put in with care. Very well done, Alisha!

Scout with Jess - Love the tenderness in this photo. Very sweet, Scout!

And a few more- really love the quality and lighting in Jeneca's, Christina's and Willsbardgirl's. I also love how the expression/angle looks on Annabeth's face, Sammi! And last, but not least, I love the lighting on Saige's face in Willow's collage!


Great job, everyone!

(If I messed something up, I sincerely apologize, you don't realize how hard this actually is until you host, so if you see a mistake, please kindly let me know)

Season 10 | Round 1 \\ Theme

You've all been waiting for this, and now it's finally here!

Last season I really liked the first theme Willow used, so this one is basically gonna be the same;

All About Me

I want to get to know your dolls personality, so take a picture that describes them well. You can create a collage, but only one photo will be accepted (so you can put more than one photo together in a collage so that it becomes one photo, but I will only be posting one picture)

Because it's around Christmastime (or all late year holidays, whichever you celebrate) and I really want to do a theme related to that, I will be giving you about two weeks for this theme. 

You have up until Sunday, December 15th 2013 \\ 12 am (central time) to get me your photo.

Also, a couple more things to remind you of:
This isn't an easy competition. I don't want you to treat it as such, therefore all photos you send in need to be taken especially for this theme. NO digging back into the archives.
Also, if you're in need of tips, a pep talk or are wondering how I will be judging, see here.

When you send in your picture, please attach it to the email, and in the subject line of the message put:
"[your name] with [your dolls name] | Round 1"
