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 // Lowepro Storyteller

Thankful for Family

This is an image I created for the Lowepro Storytellers Blog, my first one created as a Lowepro Storyteller. Every month Lowepro gives their team of Storytellers a theme to create an image around. The theme for November was "thankful."  The word "Thankful" can have many different meanings depending on the context it's used in.  For me, I am thankful for my family.  You can see the actual post on the Lowepro blog HERE.
