  • Where Sculpture Meets Photography

    177 hyper-real images that explore the line between beauty, realism, and emotion.
    Photography of Man-made Beauty is a debut photobook by Shanghai-based photographer Aidajin, capturing life-size hyper-realistic Gynoid Dolls as muses rather than objects. Spanning two editions and two sizes, it offers carefully composed images shaped by 10,000+ shots and 2,600 hours of craft. The standard edition features 214 pages with 177 photos and a clean, art-forward tone, while the explicit edition expands to 250 pages with 205 photos. Printed on 170gsm matte coated art paper with sheet-fed offset printing at 300+ ppi, and section sewn binding for durability, each spread is designed for presence and clarity. Back it on Kickstarter now.

    About

    Im a Shanghai‑based, self‑taught photographer who has shot 10k+ images of life‑size hyper‑realistic Gynoid figures since 2021. My photobook LoveMeorHer topped the 2024 Yimei contest in a famous doll community in China. Invited shooter for GynoidDolls, I now inspire my fans across Asia and the West.
