I’m a photographer based in New Jersey who likes making big scenes out of little figures. Most of my work involves toys—usually from the 80s or anything with a bit of character—and turning them into something that feels like a moment from a movie. I use practical effects, simple dioramas, and lighting to create something fun, dramatic, and hopefully nostalgic.

 

I love experimenting with scale and atmosphere, and I’m always chasing that feeling of flipping through an old comic or watching a favorite scene from childhood. If you’re into toy photography, retro vibes, or want to collaborate on something weird and creative, I’m always up for it.
