We find our Fellowship™ ashore in the Stockholm Archipelago discussing the Stockholm Syndrome and the Big Blue Marble in great detail. The Fellowship™ is trying to answer the question some of you have been asking here, on twitter, email, phone, smoke signals and even snail mail: “How can you actually join this #stuckinplastic …” And …
My favorite chapter in Steal Like An Artist is “Geography is no longer our master”. Truer words could not have been published. Only in a world where we can connect socially on so many different platforms that your head starts spinning if you try to name them all, can you make friends all over the …
While Shelly is obviously struggling with the Imposter Syndrome and is rightfully exploring the inner workings of the meaning of live, art, photography, plastic and faking it all, I feel more close to home (ouch, one of my long sentences). I like to sympathize with the Art™ crowd out there (they have soup after all) …
I’ve been a photographer for a long time; some might even accuse me of being an artist. I don’t like labels, so I will continue to resist these labels and settle for being just a photographer.

One thing I learned while I was getting my BFA in Photography was that I am really bad at black and white photography. Color is my medium. And if you don’t believe me check out my pre Lego work here. One of the first apps I looked for after a good basic editing app for …
Some times when Me2 and I debate we have to agree to disagree, but we rarely disagree on the value of Instagram. Of course Instagram will always have a soft spot for me because I met many great toy photographers, like Me2, on Instagram but I also developed my own voice and personal vision. There …
When my partner in crime wrote “… if this doesn’t prove my point that photography has been rendered valueless by the sheer volume of images being produced, I don’t know what does …” I could not disagree more.I actually would argue very strongly that the sheer volume of images and the same sheer volume of …
I was researching 500px today in my continuing quest to find other amazing toy photographers and I was impressed by the quality of the photos presented.
