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.

Jason and Tracy | Engaged | Colorado

how many times have you heard the cliche’s about life? about the craziness of it and the roads we walk down and so on? i mean, even disneyland has a ride that pretty much tries to pistol-whip it into your subconscious about how small the world is. i’ve had these experiences. i’ve seen how it...

tim & valerie got married | strawberry farms | southern california wedding photographer

val and tim are two of the people that i have met that i expect to remain friends with in the years to come. sometimes when you’re with someone on their wedding day, you naturally become friends (or better friends) with the couple. i am almost apt to say, if i didn’t, i wouldn’t be...
