Chris McVeigh is an author, illustrator and photographer that lives in Halifax, NS. He started with photography in 2007 when a friend insisted that he should purchase a digital SRL. Chris is a natural talent! He now excels at creating clever, quirky and often comical pictures that employ everything from action figures to backyard wildlife. (In fact, a combination of the two garnered the attention of Lucasfilm, who featured his picture on the front page of starwars.com!)

I bumped into his work when I was doing my regular research for our Daily Inspiration post. Let me say that I was not only inspired by his work but I also got stunned by it. He has soooo many great works that I would like to show here that I decided to split his material into 2 posts. This first one will be about his excellent "toys photos". Chris captures the characters in a very interesting, comical, expressive and creative way. I'm pretty sure you will like all these images... I loved it!! :)
