But who is Valzuji ?

My real name is Alexandra Wiame. Trained as a graphic designer, I have always been drawn to visual arts.

Passionate about cinema and a toy collector since childhood, I discovered toy photography in 2017. This discipline, originating from Japan and the United States, was still very underrepresented in France. It allowed me to combine my various passions while creating my own scenes and storytelling. I developed a unique style, creating dark atmospheres with a lot of saturated light, which I call « Neon Demon. » I work, of course, without AI and with minimal retouching.

Since my official launch in 2019, I have been actively involved in the French toy photography community, which has grown significantly in 2020/2021.

As an administrator of Toy Photography France (Discord and Facebook), these platforms now have up to 400 members (a far cry from the initial 15 French members!).

Co-creator of the first French association dedicated to the subject in 2023, the Toy Photo French Force, I work towards the discovery and recognition of this art.
