By 2019, Toby became the resident photographer for PLAY Management, later acquired by Clique Hospitality, continuing to document some of the city’s most influential nightlife and entertainment venues.

 

In 2023, he became a resident photographer for AVN (Adult Video Network), a globally recognized publication within the adult entertainment industry.

 

In 2025, Toby joined the visual team of the NHL’s Las Vegas Golden Knights, further solidifying his reputation as one of the city’s most versatile and trusted visual storytellers.

​

His work has appeared in Sports Illustrated, Haute Living, Modern Luxury, People Magazine, CNN, Robb Report, Las Vegas Magazine, Las Vegas Review-Journal, and Los Angeles Magazine, among other national and regional publications.
