Moonlight Jellyfish - An (Archived) Photoshoot

 

Hey everyone! I hope you all are having a wonderful day. I've missed this little community <3

I knew I wanted to make some posts earlier in the year, since I hadn't in 2025. But I was unsure of what to do. And I've had my hands full, as of late. Fortunately, I remembered a photoshoot I had done, coming up on, 2 years ago (August 2024, I believe). I'm not sure why I never posted it. Maybe because it's a bit unusual; different from my regular style of photography. It was around the same time that I did the Retro Sights - A Photoshoot, and I think I was just in a funky, experimental mindset, at the time.

This particular photoshoot I did with one of my BJD dolls, Luna. I don't actually think I had ever done a photoshoot with just her (only ever duo shoots), but I should do it more often. BJD dolls are some of my favorite models to work with! As they have so much articulation, it allows me to be more creative with movement and posing. Anyway, if I'm remembering correctly, I had seen a lot of photography (on Pinterest), using projectors. And that was my inspiration, so I decided to give it a go!

Side note: the title was inspired by the song 'Dance of the Moonlight Jellies' by ConcernedApe, from the video game Stardew Valley!

 When I was sitting down to edit this post and finally look back on these photos; something about the floating bubbles projecting onto Luna, who looks so ethereal, just felt fitting for the enchanting sound of this song, as well as the fun name. So, if you'd like to listen to it while reading the post, feel free!

So, yeah, after a long time coming, here's the photoshoot! I hope you enjoy.

The focus is rather poor in this one, but I liked the shot and editing I did for it, so it's worth it?

I hadn't even realized, until now, how her cape laying on top of her head, looks kind of like a jellyfish ;)

And there you have it! As always, let me know what you thought of the photoshoot, and the post as a whole. I hope to make a few more posts before the holidays, this year. I've been busy with school, volunteering and job searches, and my other various hobbies. But I've been wanting to get back into doing more photography (doll and experimenting with other mediums), because I've missed it. 

But keep me in the loop! How's everyone been? Any plans for the summer? And are there any news from the doll community that I need to be updated on, lol. I hope you all are having a great day <3 And if you aren't, you'll be okay. Tomorrow is always a fresh start. 

Love ya,

Hailey
