My name is Otto van Duijn. I'm 23 years old. My passion for photography began at age 8. I got a compact camera from Canon. I mainly was photographing nature and those typical vacation photographs. After a while, my mother decided to buy a new camera, so I got her old Pentax DSLR to up my game to a new photographic level. About three years ago, I started taking photography more seriously and taking pictures of people besides the standard nature photographs. 3,5 years ago, I bought my first Fujifilm camera, an XT10, which started shooting more regularly. For my application to Willem de Koning Academy, I designed some t-shirts with illustrator and let my friends model for me.
My backup plan was the ''Applied photography and Image creation'' at the Fotovakschool in Rotterdam, which is my current study.
