Grunts - 2019
Technically speaking, this image took 1/250th of a second. Setup, posing, lighting, etc. took a couple of hours, and the series was shot over the course of two days. But really, this image, and all of the images in this series, have taken over fourteen years to create.
Action figures have been my favorite photography subjects, and this project has been (perhaps more than) a minor obsession. This is what it looked like in my mind, as a kid, playing with G.I. Joes in my backyard.
These shots have been a long time coming, and I’m very proud with how they’ve turned out. And I know me, and I know it doesn’t end here, but I’m happy with the start.
