01 | THE PLATYPOD HANDLE - CAMPFIRE UNDER THE STARS WITH JESSE FEYEREISEN

"Ever since I was given the opportunity to utilize the brand new Platypod Handle recently, I have a whole new way to make my figures look larger than life!

One of the first tips I give people who want to improve their toy photography, is that unless you have a specific creative reason, always shoot from at, or below, the figure’s eye line. Getting down to their level instantly helps sell your subject as something larger than it really is.”

02 | VENICE GRAND CANAL FROM ACADEMIA BRIDGE-BLUE HOUR WITH BOBBI LANE

"I lead a photo tour for Venice Carnival every year, which is a visual feast for photographers. There are hundreds of costumers with creative and exquisite costumes that attend every year, and they all want to be photographed. Of course, Venice is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, so just street shooting at any time of the day is wonderful. One location where we (Bobbi and Lee's Photo Adventure's) always take our group is the Academia Bridge that spans the Grand Canal with a view of the stunning domes of San Salute Basilica. This is a beautiful scene at any time of day, but the blue hour sets the romantic mood of the city. The glow of the city lights, the deep blue of the sky, and the boat traffic all combine to create the classic view of Venice.”

The Platypod Handle has been my trusty assistant, helping me capture these stunning images with ease. As we all know, angles matter in photography, and with the Platypod Handle, you have more creative freedom to experiment and capture the perfect shot.”
