Light, held
in full depth
A photography and cinematography studio built around colour and tonal depth — portraiture, editorial, beauty and fine art, captured deep and finished with a colourist’s eye.
I photograph the things that deserve to be remembered.
12 Bit Studios is a photography and cinematography practice built around colour, light and depth. I work across portraiture, beauty, editorial and fine art with the same eye — composing quietly, grading with intent, and delivering work that still feels considered years later.

What clients say
A few words from recent shoots — graduations, portraits and sessions across the DMV.
I had a great experience with Tobi for my graduation photos. He helped guide me with posing when I wasn't sure what to do, while still giving me the freedom to capture photos that felt natural to me. I got my pictures back quickly, and the final gallery exceeded my expectations. I loved having the option of multiple locations — these are by far my favourite professional photos I've ever had taken. He was also understanding and patient with any additional edits I had afterward. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a local photographer.
My graduation pictures with Tobi came out exactly how I imagined, and I felt extremely comfortable the entire photoshoot.
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience for my grad shoot! To many it's just pictures, but for me it represented years of hard work and dedication — and Tobi captured it perfectly. Very accommodating and helpful throughout the process. 10/10 recommend!
Tobi was super helpful and caring before, during and after our session. He made sure I got the best out of my time and experience. I will definitely be booking again!
Shooting with Tobi was a very easy experience. He did a great job helping bring the photos I wanted to life and produced great photos.
Tobi was so amazing, especially for someone who's not used to posing. He's very helpful and knowledgeable about how to make the most of my time — and really bring my theme to life.
