Toby has studied photography in academic classes, at art institutions, and through experimentation of her own.

In addition to personal artistic endeavors, Toby began doing photojournalistic work in high school and continued through four years at Wesleyan University, ultimately becoming the photo-editor of the primary campus newspaper and the official photographer for the Theater Department. She has extensive experience with creating images for a diverse set of purposes, including promotional materials for events and headshots for performers. Toby's warmth, skill, and open-mindedness have helped her become the go-to photographer in every community of which she is a part. She enthusiastically accomplishes the specific goals of various assignments in a uniquely creative way.

Toby continues to develop her style both digitally and through black and white film.
