Toy Photography // Gollum

Gollum Takes 5 (it gets hot in Middle-Earth!)

I love presenting characters in unexpected ways and situations, especially if it humanizes them (whether or not they're actually human!) or makes them more relatable.

Toy Photographer Puts The Action In Action Figures

Bullseye's Bubble Bath

There is always a degree of chance when it comes to making one of these images with real liquid splashing...you can only control so much. If I'm not happy with the shot, the cleanup and re-setting up of the shot after each take requires a considerable amount of time and effort. So I was happy when I nailed this image on my first attempt. I love how the little alien and binocular characters on the ground seem to get it the worst - something I couldn't really control.

Toy Photographer // Rancor + Simba

The Offering

I love the not so subtle implications of this image.  I already did the iconic image of Simba and Rafiki on top of Pride Rock (maybe I'll share that one later), but wanted to get at least one more image out of this toy. And that's when the idea for this image popped into my head (that's a Rancor from Star Wars, in case you were wondering). Heartwarming, right??
