An interview with @darkscythe_25

By @beermanphotography

Q: How long have you been a toy photographer? 

A: It’s going to be 2 years in August.

Q: What got you started in toy photography? 

A: It actually started as a way for me to learn how to shoot manually. My mom gave me her rebel t2i and gear ’cause she stopped doing photography. Eventually I started to enjoy shooting toys, then I found this awesome community and it just took off from there.

Q: What is your favorite figure to shoot and why?

A: My main figures of choice have been Marvel Legends. Mainly cause they’re a good toy for a good price and it has lots of my favourite characters. But if theres a toy line for any of the franchises I love I’ll probably try to get my hands on it.

Q: What is your favorite place to take photos? 

A: Simply just around my house. Where I live I can get lots of different terrains; from beach, sandy and forest. Though I do enjoy trying to make dioramas as well.

Q: What’s the weirdest thing that has ever happened during a photo shoot?

A: Honestly, I haven’t had anything weird happen to me during a shoot. Even when I shoot around people they’ve been pretty supportive.

Q: If you could have any superpower what would it be and why? 

A: I would want the power of alchemy (like Edward Elric in Fullmetal Alchemist). Because with that power I could make the perfect house for my wife and kids, and I could have a room for myself as a studio for my photography.
