Maiden of the North

I took some photos of Medeia (Iplehouse SID Eva) last time when I visited my parents' cottage, but due to other photoshoots, box openings, etc. I didn't manage to post the photos right away... Now that I'm at the cottage again, this time without dolls or camera, I thought that it'd be a good time to edit the earlier photos and post them, before I completely forget about them :D

Medeia lives in The Elven Kingdom of Solamnia (one of the fantasy worlds in my and Sarg's story), in a forest village which is the home for countless shape shifters (bears, wolves, ravens, deer, you name it). Solamnia and its surroundings remind us of Medieval period mixed with fantasy elements and European nature, and we've also been inspired by the world of The Witcher games. 

Meddy is a some sort of herbalist, she enjoys collecting herbs from the forest and preparing all kinds of remedies and potions to help the other villagers. She often takes long relaxing walks in the nearby forests and that's what I had in mind when taking her outside :3

The outfit is self-made (inspired by Iple's Witch Hunter set) and Sarg made the necklace :)

Taking photos outside turned out not to be such a great idea and I was only happy with these two shots... It was so cold (I was stupid and left my gloves inside, so my fingers froze instantly) and also insanely windy, thus Meddy's hair was all over the place and it was hard to make sure that the skirt covers the doll stand completely :'D I also felt like Meddy should've had more clothes to fit in the scenery better, I didn't want it to look like she was freezing there. Once the snow is completely gone, I hope to get better photos of her outside :)

I took a few photos inside and noticed that the wooden cottage makes quite nice photographing place for Meddy - it almost looked like she was at her own home. On the other hand, the lighting wasn't best possible, but I'm still satisfied that I managed to get at least somewhat decent photos :)
