Wonderful Machine
My wonderful peeps over at Wonderful Machine just sent me a promo they sent out of my work to all creatives. I love to see how other people see my work and the images they chose to promote it. I thought I would share it with all.
Wonderful Machine Promo
I think that Wonderful Machine, as an agency is on to something with the way they are doing things. Things are not the same in the business as they were 10 or 5 or 1 years ago. I’m happy to have my work promoted by people that are innovating in the way they do things.
Video
Hard at work here at Toky Photography. This is a little teaser image from what I’ve been working during the past weeks. A music video! The finished product will be ready in a few weeks, but for now, a little teaser image.

Mark Salling from Glee
Just updated the cover of my website and the music section with photos of Mark Salling from Glee. Mark is really cool and actually a very talented musician who writes and performs his own music. I recommend his CD: Jericho/Smoke Signals. You can download it from iTunes of purchase it from his website. MarkSallingMusic.com
Here are a couple of outakes that didn’t make the main site:

New year, New work.
Back from a brief Holiday break. I hope everyone had a great start to the new year.
On the last week of 2009 I got to work on a really cool movie project. I can’t talk about it… but I can show you some behind the scenes images for now.

Shooting stills, behind the scenes and key art all at the same time is super fun and I find that the actors are more into the photography aspect of their movies if done while shooting the film. Since they are already in character it’s easier for them to shoot stills and key art than to have to play the role again in a photo studio for the key art.
On a side note, I didn’t include any photos of the night portion of the shoot. This day is THE COLDEST I’ve ever been in my life. I think my shutter finger froze at some point. Props to all the actors who were just wearing their t-shirts at night. End of side note.
