Toy Photography with No Fancy Equipment

[@rajeshphotography3670]

This video really helpful for the Amertuter like me, and it also helpful for the people who are all don't have a camera

[@The_New_Mexican_Dog]

I just started toy photography today and when I looked for a camera to buy they were like 148 USD for the cheapest it was like what the welp looks like I am not getting a camera

[@MatthewStrainz]

I have been doing toy photography for a year now and still use a phone

[@ralphb09]

Mate I don’t think you realised how much you have inspired me, I’ve just ordered a Stormtrooper action figure and i will go to the forest right next to me. Thanks mate your a legend.

[@sirdork730]

That means a lot my friend! Thanks so much for all the support on the videos 😊 and nice profile pic 😝

[@ralphb09]

@@sirdork730 hey thanks. And don’t worry about the profile pic, when I take a photo of my own figure that is what I will use. Just for now I’ll use this one!

[@paulogonzales847]

I only have a light box at my disposal, but i also take advantage of the existing environment here in my place. Im glad its enough 😊

[@sirdork730]

Awesome! You’ll be surprised with how useful your local environment may be! Good luck!

Hey thanks for the vid, it gave me an idea to get started with.

[@Straw_Hat_Prints]

Jared! I'm in the middle of editing a video and this pops up! That's the editing on hold for 10 minutes 🤣🤣 as always man! You're an inspiration, always enjoy when you drop a video and the way you've helped me shape my toy photography is extremely appreciated! You're awesome bro!!

[@sirdork730]

For reflect the ligth you can use a piece of paper or cloth with white color or brite one but remember they will reflect the color to and maybe its affect your picture.

Thank you for letting us in on your technique on Toy Photography. Looking forward to the next video on this topic and THANK YOU FOR THE WORK YOU ARE DOING...

[@Liam_Lavoe]

Hey this really helped me I’m only 13, and I really found a love for photography, I can only use my phone for photos so this helped, so thank you!

[@nightmaretux]

As someone who is 14 and also uses their phone, this guide was really helpful

[@illumardimago2307]

Thank you Souch I m gonn go for this. I have. So many action figures including 12 inches in size.

[@sonyacamaj1256]

Hey I recently subscribed, you inspired me to make my own toy photography!

[@TP-fl9ul]

Omg you’re great! Very talented! Great artwork!

[@shawnkwitecki5286]

You should try using snapseed for editing on your phone

[@Mwckz83]

My go to on my phone

[@Justrandumthings]

There is difference between snapseed and lightroom lol... You cant do colour correction like lightroom in snapseed 😂

[@stopmotionamature9432]

@@Justrandumthings yeah but you can basically photoshop it in snapseed that's what I use

Hey Boss I’ve watched this video and it really inspired me to Do Figure Photography It looks so much fun! Ive been wanting to do it. Thank you for this video and awesome ways to create shots. I also subscribed 💯🙏

[@helendriver6862]

I wouldn’t make fun of the shots because mine are horrible

[@JamesSLogan9176]

I use just my phone it gets easier the more you do it

[@ms.D35TR0]

Wow! Even with just a phone, you made it look awesome. It's not really about the equipment, it's the one handling the equipment that really matters. After being subscribed for months, I finally ventured into toy photography, and I'm just using my phone and mobile apps for editing. You were one of the few who really inspired me to toy photography, but I really look out for your IG post & YT vids because I know, I'm gonna learn something from it. If I can't do what you did in a post, then I just try my best copying the idea and applying my own. Although I'm not really close to being 5% as good as you, but I share your passion and desire in bringing our toys to life and having fun doing it. I'll share this to my IG, I'm sure there are lots of us (noob toy photographers) out there, some were just like me, shy and afraid that our work might get ridiculed. Thank you!

[@otakulensphotography]

Bro! I absolutely love this and it helps so many people. I have so much gear from my photography and small business that helps on big sets. Small toy photography really only requires basic stuff to get awesome stuff. You rock bro!

[@snipermonkey8556]

I do toy photography but I'm kinda good but I dont use fancy stuff only a tiny camera an new action figure and fire

[@FrankErazo]

I know this isn’t free, but I have used the Camera remote on my Apple Watch ⌚️. I also just learned that the Photos app on my MacBook 💻 works a little like Lightroom. I recently even learned there’s a retouch tool - like the clone stamp in Photoshop! Look forward to more of these videos. I mainly struggle with finding a location and posing my figures! Thank you!

[@revananimations5769]

I do all my shots with my phone I have a camera but my phone does a better job

[@brian-lexiluproductions]

Hi , I hope this finds you doing well. I was wondering if you could make a video about using a DSLR camera with toy photography? Focusing more on the camera itself. (no pun intended)lol. Like what are the best lenses to use, lighting and shutter speed or how far away the camera should be from the subject. Also it would be cool if you could do more behind the scene's videos from setup to final picture. Thanks man keep the videos coming!

[@akimdanial]

Done subscribed.. just start bought the mcfarlane toys. 😄

[@wehringsnerdcave4411]

Thanks to you I might do the Aquaman effect with McFarlane Toys 'The Drowned' (Dark Knights Metal).

[@john8069]

Hey Jared, if you were to recommend a starter camera kit to start toy photography what would you recommend getting and addons/lenses etc.???

[@sirdork730]

Hey John! I would definitely check out the gear video I made! The camera and tripod I have linked in that video are perfect to start with! The lens it comes with does the job perfectly! Thanks for watching the videos as well my friend!

[@jambee5603]

Im wondering how are your figures, because you splash them with water, use firecrackers and etc arounf them

[@sirdork730]

Thanks for watching! The figures are usually just fine after a shoot 😆

What is the setting of the cam when you do that splash splash thingy hehe. Thanks!

My phone doesn’t have any settings! Just shooting as is for these shits 👊

[@chespinpokemon909]

@@sirdork730 Nice! Thanks. I recently watched your video about the cam settings (almost all of your toy photography basic tutorials). My phone has up to 1/8000 shutter speed, i dunno if 6400 ISO will be enough to light up a 1/4000 shutter speed (but i think it really depends on the light of the surroundings) Can't wait to have a free time to take some photos. 😁

Does the dirt/dust ever damage your figures? I juet wanna make sure before i do this becusse i dont wanna damage my expensive figures

[@sirdork730]

There is always the risk of that happening! But for me, I almost never get damage on my figures from the dirt and debris 😆 and a quick rinse in the sink always helps to keep the clean!

What you can do with a smartphone, is you can take a video of the affects, like take a video of you splashing water or something and when you find the perfect spot in the video when you go back to check it, you can screenshot it
