After being a dj/music-composer for over 15 years, Otto van den Toorn was fed up with the secluded studio life and started to take pictures of his friends in the modelling business.

That worked out well until the Net5 television show ‘Model for a Day’ asked him to host the show. This gave his photography career the needed momentum, and Otto loved working and connecting with people as he established himself as a full time fashion and beauty photographer.

He has shot campaigns for brands such as Nikkie, Ibana, Silvercreek, JoshV, Tramontana, MiMoneda, Lookx, Inglot,  Josephine&CO and magazines including Talkies Magazine, LAF and Stylevision.
