Meet Alita

Alita was born in Paris, France. She emigrated to the US with her parents as a teenager. Now grown up and on her own, she teaches dance to kids and teens at a local studio. At heart Alita is a spunky chameleon with a plethora of interests. This doll does not hide at home in her bedroom. Always active, she takes on snowboarding, rollerskating, hiking and even skateboarding. There's nothing she won't jump into. In fact, she'd skydive, if only Atomic would let her. She also loves to read. A lot. Her favorite authors are the classics: CS Lewis, JRR Tolkien and Jane Austen. Books and a hot cup of herbal tea keep Alita occupied for hours. Despite being an international traveler, Alita is not afraid to embrace her inner nerd with a night of arcade games and a classic black and white movie.

You'll find her with a different look almost every day, but her signature is a punky red-orange cut. Oh, and those freckles. Everyone agrees she would not be Alita without them. Her best resources are thrift stores and goodwill shops.

"The best treasures are not the most obvious ones, seek your own path to them." - Alita

Equipment

Just a Moto 4e Phone (8MP camera), a few well placed house lamps for interior photos, and lots of trial and error. I like to explore interesting angles and composition.
