Toy photography... What's your flash setup like? 1 flash?

Like Tankm say, slightly underexposed. Maybe that's how you wanted it. But try to light the face more.

If 2 flashes, try experimenting different flash strengths and angles for dramatic. Or use bounce cards?

There is a big difference on the toy being "my" or "my son's" hobby.. :) -


I also find the built-in flash too harsh, but it was necessary just to trigger wireless flash.. so I block the direct flash from the built-in with a card (can see from my setup below). Also.. shadows .. something to look at .. To have it the way we want it.. or to remove totally.. Something we can experiments :)

Anyway I like to share my experiences shooting toy with you. Maybe you can learn something too.
on flash/lighting..

On background :)

I am still learning!! I think the hardest is to find nicce background to go with it..
