Gastley - Ghost AP Figure from Mischief Toys - Photo by TRD for Toys
One of my favorite toy lines currently is from Mischief Toys and is there Gastley figure. Chris and Heather, who also host the Gastlecast on YouTube. On Mondays on Instagram they host Mischief Mondays and give out a theme on Sunday night for that week. It’s been a blast to take part in these and it’s one of the highlights of my week. Here’s the photo that I took for this week’s Mischief Monday…
Garfield Funko Pop - TRD for Toys - Toy Photography
Welcome to the Toy Box….errr I mean the Toy Blog. I just wanted to give you guys a brief introduction and talk a little about what’s gonna be on here. So my name is Ricky and I’ve been a photography since 2009, but I started getting into doing toy photography as a hobby back in 2017. It was a way to get explore different ideas and concepts outside of my client work and really hearken back to growing up in the 80’s and 90’s and reliving the nostalgia of pop culture from back then, as well as pop culture that inspires me today. One of the greatest things about it though is the community of toy photographers, collectors, and people that tell you the photos just bring a smile to their face. It’s all about having fun and getting to do something that makes you happy.
On this blog I’ll be sharing photos, talking toys, and maybe even getting to interview some of my fellow collectors and toy photographers. It’s definitely gonna be the more light hearted part of my website, but I def wanted to include it here on my main website because my toy photography is definitely a part of who I am as a photographer at this point in what I do. So stay tuned….
