Anthony Ryan Schmidt is a professional photographer who specializes in creating realistic images of miniature cars with his iPhone. He has been fascinated with cars and model collecting since he was a child and has developed his own style of photography  that captures the beauty of automobiles through time. 

He has published two coffee table books of his work titled “Small Cars, Big Inspiration”  and “Shifting Perspectives," which showcase his journey as an artist on the autism spectrum. He has also gained a large fan base on social media where he shares his photos and stories.

In his second book, “Shifting Perspectives”, Anthony  explores how his work shifts perspectives on multiple levels, from delighting viewers with carefully composed scenes featuring miniature cars to demonstrating how people are much more than they appear on the surface. The book features 158 pages full of stunning color photos that reflect Anthony’s growth as a photographer over the last two years. Anthony’s work has been featured in various publications such as Wheel Hub Magazine, Car and Driver, and Hemmings, and he was inducted into the Hall of Honor in Las Vegas for his  outstanding contribution to the die-cast car community. He was also featured on KING5's Evening Magazine program and other local news outlets.

Be sure to allow time to browse and appreciate Anthony's work before the show or during intermission.
