Daughter Stella Melody

Story behind the picture (taken in 2005):

My daughter Stella, just like any other girls, loves dolls. How I managed to get her sitting so nice?
Stella was playing outside when I took the 13 shots I needed before I took her picture. Our living room is not so big, so the sofa would be distorted if I had shot it with a wide angle lens, so instead I took 3 photos (left, middle and right part) of it with a 50mm lens and stitched them in Photoshop.

The hunny jar must be separated from Winnie the Pooh, so that all other dolls can hold it too, one doll at a time. The next ten shots were from each doll holding the jar, each time with just two other dolls on the left and right. After that I called Stella, cleaned her feet, seated her between the two bears (the other dolls were already on the floor).

I had about one minute to seat her right (and to make her stay…), to make her laugh and to get the shot I wanted. Right after that Stella jumped again here and there.

The rest was just easy photoshopping.
