Brand New Inspiration Challenge – Toy Photography

After being away from business for a week to attend WPPI, it’s taken us a while to catch up with work things. We’re now ready to post our latest Inspiration Challenge, and we are SO excited about this one!

When we found this blog a couple of months ago, we were immediately engaged. What a cool idea, to take pictures of TOYS!

As moms, we have plenty of toys around the house just waiting to play subject in a creative portrait. Toys are small enough to be shot indoors or out, and it’s a lot easier to create complex sets for them with the simplest of items.

If you want more inspiration, take a look through Flickr – it’s chock full of amazing toy photography.
Here’s just a few groups we found that sparked our interest:

We’ll be announcing the prizes for this challenge next week, and the winners will be announced on April 20th. Contest closes at 5pm ET April 19th. Blog your photos and then come back here and post the link in the comments section.

We can’t wait to see what you come up with – enjoy this challenge and get creative!
