About
Toby is an Award-winning documentary photographer with experience in areas of war and crisis.
Whether it’s children stigmatised as witches in Nigeria, the first female mayor in Afghanistan or miners in the DR Congo who have declared war on the militias. It is the unusual stories that tell us so much about our world that attract him. The fact that he often takes the perspective of children and young people is based on the firm conviction that we should actually be leaving a better world to the next generation – and are obviously in danger of failing to do so.
His work has been awarded internationally, e.g. with a Gomma Grant, by LensCulture and Life Framer in 2020, the Felix-Schoeller-Award in 2019, Philip-Jones-Griffiths-Award in 2018, the Sony-World-Photo-Awards in 2019 and 2017 and the Nannen-Preis in 2017. The same year he received an Honorable Mention by UNICEF Photo of the Year.
His work is published by Stern, Zeit Magazin, The Guardian, Le Monde, Washington Post, Greenpeace Magazin, Amnesty Journal, Neue Zürcher Zeitung and others.
In March 2019 his first photo book „Wee Muckers–Youth of Belfast“ was published by Kehrer.
