I recently came across Melissa Gibson's series photographing her kids' toys. I've seen similar projects before, and I've always really liked the idea especially since, hey, I'm surrounded by kid toys 24/7 and my kids do have some cool toys. So I'm trying to be more purposeful in looking at their toys as inspiration.
Also, I found a couple free lightroom presets that mimic that faded-film look, which I'm really excited about because, yes, I am that predictable and have totally fallen for the "faded digital" fad. So sue me. But yeah, so I had fun playing around with the presets and using them as a starting point and reverse-engineering the settings to figure out how to get the look on my own, too.
These are looking great! You should definitely keep at it!! Thanks for linking to me. Hope you're having as much fun with the toys as I am. :)
