Tim Wheaton Photography |  Southern California Natural Light Photographer bio picture

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.

margo: from friend to model

margo has been a good friend of mine for a handful of years now (years come in handfuls… dollars come in fistfuls). i think from the time i started taking photography more seriously, i had it in my mind to do a shoot with her. she has a certain… je ne sais pas about her...

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,...
