Tonny envisions the cameraas a paintbrush where nature serves as a foundation for abstraction. An opportunity to explore the subjective spectrum of photography.
Born in Copenhagen in 1964 and raised by his stepfather Steen Bjerregaard, a commercial photographer who opened the first digital photo studio in Denmark. Photography was an integral part of Tonny’s upbringing and, although his career took a different path. After a successful professional sports career in Taekwondo, I moved to the U.S. in 1992. I started the lifestyle apparel brand Von Dutch Originals in 2000 and sold the company in 2009 to explore different modes of creativity, such as music, painting, philosophy.
