Toby Roney

Photographer / Filmmaker

Toby Roney is an award winning photographer, filmmaker and expedition specialist with a focus on the outdoors and the people who are drawn to wild places. He has created work for brands including Arc’teryx, Garmin and YETI, and his imagery has appeared in publications such as Red Bull Bulletin, The New York Times, The Guardian and Sidetracked Magazine. He is sponsored by Peli Cases and Enduristan.

A sense of curiosity, enthusiasm and commitment to adventure runs through Toby’s work. He has documented expeditions across the world, from filming in minus twenty seven degree storms on Iceland’s Vatnajökull ice cap to mountaineering alpine ridges in the Alps. In 2025 he joined Ed Jackson in the Tien Shan mountains of Kyrgyzstan to document a world first ascent of an unclimbed 4720m peak. He also served as director of photography for Generation Shegeng, an Arc’teryx documentary charting the rapid rise of climbing culture in China.

Toby is trusted to operate in environments where conditions are demanding and self sufficiency is essential. Whether working from helicopters over erupting volcanoes, solo shooting for twenty two hours on technical terrain or managing drones, sound and camera as a single operator, he brings adaptability, calmness and a clear sense of narrative. His skillset is supported by a wide range of field qualifications including CAA authorised drone operations with A2 CofC and Ofqual Level 4, outdoor first aid, avalanche awareness, winter mountain planning, Level 1 IRATA rope access, paragliding, powerboat handling, scuba diving and both UK driving and motorbike licences. These capabilities allow him to work safely and effectively across land, sea and air in challenging environments.

Toby is Co-Founder of Peak 4122 Media, a creative production agency focusing on telling powerful stories about adventures in the natural world. Toby was the recipient of the Fort William Mountain Festival Photographer Of The Year Award 2020.
