Oooohhhh! Have I completed missed you sharing these before, Mikey?

Sorry to hear about the car situation btw! Insurance is such a scam.

Hey y'all! Bringing my thread back from the dead to share that I've launched a new website for my professional photography work. It covers a bit of everything I've ever done in my career, including some of my monster photography. You may find some stuff that's never been posted online if you look in the right portfolio sections.

I recently also had my car stolen on Christmas and insurance isn't covering a ton in the payout that I'll be using to buy a new car. I could use a little extra help and if you'd like to support I have launched a print shop with a few Alien and Predator toy photography pieces that you can display in your home.

Feel free to take a look if you're interested! Click "Shop" in the menu bar to get the the prints, and the monster stuff is towards the bottom. Thanks for checking it out if you do!

Quote from: Mike's Monsters on Jul 16, 2022, 10:10:28 PMDoing that thing where I resurrect a year long dead thread!

I just noticed recently that we have user galleries in our profiles! So I decided to dump a ton of my Alien and Predator toy photography from the last 15 or so years in one place. When I'd started photography many years ago, I posted it all here! Now, I work professionally taking photos and videos and it all comes back to right here! I think that's pretty awesome, and it's cool to see how I grew documented all on this site.

Take a look at my gallery! There's quite a few images I've not posted in here before like this of Hiya Toys Grid and Celtic.

Glad we have this feature on the site!!

Fantastic shots as always.

Thanks for the love, Voodoo!

Here's a few more shots I've done over the last few weeks. In camera effects and fun light is all that's happening here!

NECA 40th Anniversary Ripley and 1/4 scale Big Chap:



NECA Alpha Predator:











NECA Golden Angel Predator:







I've also started up a YouTube channel where I'll be sharing tips and tricks around photography, and also showing my process of taking these images. It's something different than I normally make, and I'm pretty excited about it. I've got one video out now, and you can check it out here. Hope you all enjoy!

Great pics Mike!

I've been so tempted to pick up that Fugitive Thermal Vision Predator for so long now.
