Shooting Toby Ottoli on the balcony
Behind the scenes
8 Jul, 2026
Watching this BTS video of Toby Ottoli's shoot on the balcony again today reminded me of how crazy his shoots are. I had not warned Toby before the shoot that he was going to be posing in a small inflatable pool on my balcony. I ended up rushing through this because it looked like a storm was coming. So instead of getting sunshine over the balcony we were getting grey skies. Toby was happy to pose in a speedo and then naked in the pool. But I actually think the photos toward the end in the bathrobe looked better than the photos in the pool. And it was really nice to catch up with one of my favourite models in Berlin.
