I feel this red jumper skirt I got could go well with *something*, but this first time trying it does not seem to be it when I look back at it

I remain ever amazed what we can do with MQ/V/RX24 balloons in terms of their inflated length with the proper inflation technique

Handling a 32-inch long neck balloon is definitely something else

Once in a hot minute, I consume a canned cocktail at home in the midst of some helium balloons

Maybe I gotta try fully inflating and necking a Unique 24 balloon at a later point (this one ended up underinflated due to running out of helium in the cylinder that rotation)

Maybe I made too intense of a stare in this one

No actual weekends for me across this officemaxxing period, but I can pretend with photos like these

Just a plain girl in her bedroom with modest balloon decorations

balloon fun zone mentality does things to a person

Tried out a Cattex Bubble balloon encompassing an underinflated Sempertex 36 - feels a bit more durable than TakaraTec's Aqua Balloon in this short demonstration, so we'll see if I end up using these more, mainly for a more comfortable experience with air-inflated jumbo round balloons

An afternoon MQ32 balloon post before I get busy for the next 8 hours in all likelihood-

Just wrapped up with this last shoot, so here are some quick unedited previews-! Finally made the jump for 5 jumbo long-neck helium balloons this time!

Feeling this odd combination of colors for today's "last hurrah" shoot of sorts

A preview of balloons I will be using for my last at-home shoot for a while to come~~~

That sure is a rude awakening of sorts #HeavenBurnsRed #ヘブバン

Ticking down the days until I gotta work some overtime again across a 7+ week period, so I got at best one last weekend remaining if I want to do another set and have that waiting in an archive for posting

A happy girl with a small bouquet of helium balloons

An unedited preview of a new set, most likely the last for a while to come as I will be working all days of the week for roughly 2 months straight, so I should get to enjoy a few simple pleasures like some long-necked balloons while wearing what is one of my favorite dresses before then, right?

More modest balloon play photos-

The helium balloons from this set might be the last ones for a couple of months at least - doesn't seem like I can make the time to get another cylinder exchange for the time being, oof

To make up for the no-clip oof this past weekend

Time to put an end to an eventful Bushiroad Summer Fest 2026 here at Long Beach- (Hopefully I can fix up the clip mechanisms on those twintail attachments some time after I return home)

No twintails because the clip mechanisms broke unexpectedly womp womp

#scuffed Urara cosplay at Bushiroad Spring Fest 2026 in Long Beach because my contact lenses were really irritating me to the point of having to remove them and dispose of them, so they cause no further harm #CardfightVanguard #cosplay #ヴァンガード #コスプレ

Short vacation soon (with a delayed flight) Time for a drink at the airport (I wish somewhere had Therapist on tap)

Supposed card game vacation this weekend, but I have not been actively playing said card game as of late, oops

A new color clash photoset

Started an export of photos a bit over half an hour ago, and computer says DxO PhotoLab has processed only a bit over one-third of the photos so far The things I do to get photosets done through medium format over Micro 4/3

Holding even a couple of large helium balloons can make one feel their relatively immense lift

Ruka mini-mochi rides on a rare double-decker

Some more revisits to a past set - whoops, I did not know how to get the necks inflated on MQ24 balloons back then

I apparently started my "I can and will drink X beers wearing this" phase

Another revisit to an older set - I was in some very experimental fashion phase then

Another take on this pink plaid jumper skirt I got recently

Continuing with a recent pastel set - this one felt particularly fun to do to the point where I ended up with a higher number of photos to edit and process!

I should finish up posting from some older sets where possible, huh

I cannot put it into words as to why I decided to lick a heart-shaped lollipop during this shoot other than it somehow felt "right" apparently

Wearing this was actually quite cozy since it was a bit on the chilly side on the day I took this set

So close to Top 100 on first run this season #HeavenBurnsRed #ヘブンバーンズレッド #ヘブバン

Another rerun Gundam Starter Deck event last night #GundamCardGame #GCG #ガンダムカードゲーム

Quick preview of an upcoming set with a return to pastel colors

Obligatory "incorporate balloons into the photo set" shot

For whatever reason, I feel an urge to wear this jumper skirt I have featured across a number of different photo sets with a new top I got not too long ago

"Have you checked out the newly released Neverness to Everness by Hotta Studio?" Me, a player of Tower of Fantasy also by Hotta Studio:

I could honestly upload some stuff from this set unedited and feel comfortable with doing so

Revisited medium format as I said I would for part of this new set Also, huh, I apparently am on an upwards trend when it comes to the number of photos per set now

Right - medium format means larger files @_@ The price we pay to shoot on larger image sensors, whoo

First of hopefully two GD04: Phantom Aria events! #GundamCardGame #GCG #ガンダムカードゲーム

Maybe I should revisit the idea of doing home shoots on medium format more (most of what you see here is on Micro Four Thirds) Though next time, I should keep camera positions a tad more consistent to the extent possible! After all, a good chunk of that Q24 balloon sure ended up off frame!
