Photographer Marco ter Beek is a self-taught professional Dutch photographer, specialized in portrait, advertising and interior photography. In addition to commercial assignments, he pursues his true passion: staged fine-art portraits. A form in which he thinks out everything in detail and then visualizes it.

Marco has been recognized several times, both in the Netherlands and abroad. He has won several awards and will therefore always deliver his photography at the highest quality level. His motto is: "You don't take a picture, you make it!"
For Island Gallery's opening exhibition, EXPO NO. 1 – THE ONE WITH THE SPARKLES, we curated two striking works from his Sparkle and Shine Collection.
