Would it surprise you to know that as professional photographers, we
hardly ever use these picture effects? At least, I found I hardly ever did.
Then one day I was in a café and fell into conversation with an artist. This

previously thought of as “toy camera” effects began to change. (Well at
least they were tweaked a bit.  )
