35 Extraordinarily Clever Examples of Toy Photography

by Bill Jones

Toy photography provides great opportunities for clever composition, creative lighting and a chance to really have some fun. When done right a photographer can breath life and personality into the inanimate objects being shot. I think these examples really reflect this.

Aww, most of these are just regular photos of well made toys – albeit very nice photos.

The stuff from McCarty Photo Works are phenomenal. Bravo!

Wow. This is truly a great collection. I find it inspiring. I’ve tried some photography with toys, but nowhere near as clever as these. This definitely makes me want to get shooting right away. Thank you for posting this!!

Never even thought about toy photos, but these ones are great. Like the mood and how they are placed into the perfect fitting surroundings.

Makes me think I need a proper macro lense.

Here’s a couple I did a while back:

This is beyond awesome. I’d love to do this kind of photography myself. Everything can benefit from some humor, why not photography too?
