Want stylish editorial images with an A-list touch?
Sounds like a job for upcoming fashion photographer, turned business star Toby Nguyen.
I can’t count on one hand the number of model stars who rock up in a glamour
cover shoot and the end result be flawless. This is precisely what makes Toby
Nguyen so special.
Fuss-free with a bold personality, he greets
everyone on set with a beaming smile and seems full of creative juice. Toby
brings together the grandness of originality, the artistry of emotion, and is
inspired by simplicity.
He’s a self-taught photographer, who got involved in
the vivid world of high fashion, editorial, and conceptual style, when his
father bought him a DSLR camera he was rearing for imaging. In this candid
interview, I got to know the industries boss behind the lens in depth. Check it
out on Bauchle Fashion’s report. All photography is by Toby Nguyen All

BF: How
did you get your start in photography?
TN:
Photography has always been an interest of mine. I got my first DSLR camera in
2012 and started photographing some of my friends who happened to be signed
models for well known modeling agencies.
After a year of shooting models from
different agencies, I’ve built a strong portfolio and reputation and eventually
got signed with an artist agency and I’ve been working within the fashion
industry ever since.
BF: What sort of camera do you
feel is the golden camera when shooting?
TN: I used a lot of cameras over
the years. Both Cannon and Nikon are my favorite brands, but my go to Camera is
Nikon D810.
BF: Where are you originally
from?
TN: Portland OR.
BF: Who is
your biggest influence and icon?
TN: I have
so many photographers that I look up to. But to name a few: Richard
Avedon, Ansel Adams, Annie
Leibovitz, Patrick Demarchelier, Mario Testino
and some younger emerging photographers.
BF: Do you
consider yourself a master at photography?
TN: Nope,
I still have so much to learn and I will never stop learning. I will never
consider myself the best because there’s so many talented people out there and
I can never learn enough. I will always want to grow and be better.
BF: What do you fear most?
TN: I fear that I don’t challenge
myself enough.
