Toby and a few cameras ;)
I have always enjoyed documenting my travels and capturing photos. From my early days with a Canon SLR shooting slide film to embracing digital photography in 2001 and transitioning to a DSLR in 2005, my journey has provided me with a wealth of wisdom to share. Having experienced both the beginner's perspective and the evolution of digital photography, I launched Photorec.tv to share my knowledge and help others improve their photography skills. In 2014, I joined forces with the McKay Photography Academy, enabling me to further share my passion and love for photography, education, and travel while exploring incredible destinations like Antarctica, Mongolia, Death Valley, and my own backyard, the Pacific Northwest. I have been privileged to share my knowledge and teach photography workshops across the globe. Follow my adventures on Instagram (follow me on Instagram) or join me on these incredible photography workshops (Travel with me).

"Thank you for a great series. I bought my T4i several months ago and never went past point and shoot because of all of the different options. I followed along during your series and my camera is no longer a stranger but a useful tool to take better pictures. Your friendly, even-paced presentation style makes understanding my camera easier. Thanks!"

"I'm going to buy a DSLR Camera very soon. I have been looking at reviews, prices, website after website, etc... etc... etc... for about a month now. Most of the reviews, and information on these sites were confusing, if not totally false (trying to get you to buy one product over another). What ever happened to honest reviews? I happened across your Web site today (Thank God) and all the information I have been looking for on multiple products was right there at my fingertips on one website... honest reviews, product comparisons, videos (The videos were great) and more. I have learned more about cameras, lenses, and photography in general from your site in one day than I have from all the other sites combined over the last month. You have a Great website and Facebook page. I will be visiting them lot. Keep up the Great work you guys are doing. Again Thanks"
