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.

m & k: a lovelight through the fog

as i drove westward to the beach for this shoot, somewhere in laguna canyon, i entered this thick blanket of fog. a misty fog. behind me were blue skies and sunshine. i heard it was cold at the beach, but did not expect such a fog monster to gobble me up. i text my wife...

wheaton family: two plus two plus one

i have actually been trying to get together with these busy-bodies for so long. it became almost urgent to finally work it out so we could get some photos done before their newest family member is born. which could be any day now. for those of you who do not know, this is my brother’s...

living is like this: sneak peek for the wheatons

this is sort of a peek for my brother and his family. i shot them a couple of weeks ago now and my sister-in-law is about to give birth, maybe any day/hour/minute now. i think if i had ever needed a push to my desire to be a father, that door was completely busted wide...

rachael & tim: a love that spans both coasts
