California Photography Workshops | Kevin Toohey
Fisheye Connect is excited to spotlight professional photographer Kevin Toohey! Born and raised in Southern California, Kevin discovered his love of photography when he first picked up his parents’ 35mm SLR camera as a young teenager.
After taking photography classes in high school and improving his skills behind the camera, he won several contests. It was then that he decided to attend Cypress College because of their renowned Photography Program. During his training there, Kevin landed a job with a local newspaper working up the ranks to become their lead photojournalist; spending many hours shooting and perfecting his skills in the darkroom.
Upon graduation from Cypress College he decided to further pursue his passion at Cal State Fullerton. Graduating two years later with a B.A., he then joined the Orange County Register Newspaper as a photojournalist mainly shooting sporting events. Using his love of capturing moments, he then started specializing in weddings. Kevin combines keen photographic talent, an outgoing personality, and an emphasis on customer satisfaction to bring you the best in wedding imagery.
However, after several successful years working for the O.C. Register, Kevin decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a school teacher. He earned his California State Teaching Credential at Cal Poly Pomona and taught in local public schools for over 15 years. During this time he built his professional photography business which includes weddings, events, fashion, and corporate photography. Since 1998 Kevin has devoted 100% of his time to his photography business, which includes teaching photography to all age groups & knowledge levels.
Although Kevin specializes in wedding photography, he is knowledgeable in wildlife, family portraiture, concerts, architecture, studio lighting, photojournalism, sports, and a plethora of other photography related subjects including Polaroid and GoPro lessons!
Let Kevin Toohey’s talent and enthusiastic teaching style help you learn more about Photography!
