they call me... tim

i know i should use capital letters, but i am not a fan of what it does to the letter
"I", in most cases. if i had to decide between a tree that grew time
and a tree that grew money, i would honestly have to sit and think about which
to pick the fruit from. i do not eat fruit. nope. ask me again and i'll tell
you the same. i don't eat fruit and i don't eat seafood. i like to think i am
not "picky" because i knock out whole food groups at a time. i've
been told i have a dry sense of humor. i've also been told i look like howie
mandel. i'm not sure if that is a compliment. i am uber-blessed to have a wife
who "deals with me"... though she may run into eye trouble one day
for how much she rolls her eyes at my antics.

i love to take photos. i love what they capture of my life and your lives. and then i
love to take those moments and "paint" on them... to reflect some of
the emotion that is already there in a unique way.

add this page to your bookmarks. i will continue to show sneak previews of what i am working
on as well as session summaries. you will also find random promotions and
discounts, as well as sporadic views into my and my family's life.


jess: from friend to model

jess is a co-worker of mine and basically makes my days in the office like that gummi bear you find in your pocket from a few days before: a nice little, warm gem. we had originally planned on doing a couple shoot, but it ended up being just her. we took off to balboa (yes, there is a theme to be seen here) and started our day with a shot to kill the nerves.

we headed off to the “fun zone” and kinda kicked around shots that i would consider more for a pair than an individual. but we had fun with it.

we slowly made our way back down to the beach, taking turns climbing onto the lifeguard tower for photos.

just before the sun went for a swim in the ocean (that is what it does, right??), we headed under the pier to finish out the shoot. i cannot remember what my “codeword” was to get jess to laugh, but she did so well.

blog 006

those basically sum up the day. i had a great time shooting jess and, once again, loved working with someone who had never done anything like this before. nobody could ever ask for a better cubicle neighbor slash starbucks partner slash bff. thanks for playing along, jess!  :)
