[Photo] For those who don't read LJ on weekends

I had a fab and fun weekend taking photos of tooth_fairy who was a fantastic first time model and the ever gorgeous puddingcat as well as anwen_swift (tooth_fairy's and fried_chicken's daughter) on the Sunday. Links to the sets on flickr for the time being.





Girls, feel free to link to the photos, too.

Cheap teddy bear?

While fooling around with a big teddy bear on Saturday (poor thing!) I realised that it made a perfect subject for experimenting with lighting, focussing, depth of field and so forth. A teddy bear sits still, doesn't complain when you put him in odd positions, doesn't need food or drink and has different interesting textures, too.

Anyone have one lying around gathering dust in the loft or know where I could get a cheap one? It doesn't have to be particularly nice but the bigger the better. I guess I'll have a look around the charity shops at one point.
