“Bolder colours and prints will take centre stage in 2023 While interiors last year often bore a discrete, natural colour palette - as evidenced by the homes in our list of top 10 home interiors of 2022 - 2023 looks set to be colour-drenched.
Dezeen Magazine Jan 2023
Tim is an established fine art and advertising photographer who runs a busy studio in central London. He has worked with many global brands over the years but has always combined these commissions with developing his own personal creative practice. This is work that looks most at home in a frame on a wall.
His photography is inspired by a fascination for small details that may otherwise remain unnoticed. A captured moment, frozen in time, allows us to observe the world in suspension and will sometimes reveal a graphic beauty that might otherwise flash by in the blink of an eye to be gone forever.
Having worked for many years with meticulous advertising clients Tim is a perfectionist, obsessed with quality which he applies to every stage of his creative practice. From the technical skills required both behind the camera and during his post-production processing, to the creation of his beautiful limited-edition fine art prints.
However, he believes that although craft and technique should not be underestimated, it is a mysterious neural connection between the eye and the brain that makes great images, and technique should remain safely behind the scenes. Nowhere does this connection matter more than when an image is framed on a wall, where it will be enjoyed for many years to come.
International Photography awards winner 2022
He recently won first place in the Fine Art/ Abstract category in the International Photography Awards 2022 for his Botanical Opticals project based on his recent stills and motion work with flowers.
Tim says: “The mandala patterns promote a sense of relaxation and wellbeing. They are both absorbing and visually stimulating and encourage viewers to focus on something beautiful and hypnotic that is inspired by the natural world. The mandala is a symbol used in Buddhism and Hinduism to represent the universe. It was also the famous psychoanalyst Carl Jung’s chosen archetype for the whole self. An archetype in the deeper layer of unconscious Jung called the ‘Collective Unconscious’. A universal part of our unconscious that we all share. They are beautiful symbols to meditate with and focus on, and visually vibrate with a calm, balanced energy.

These unique and iconic animal portraits use minimal abstract backgrounds to draw attention to the myriad levels of detail in Nature’s grand design.
Whether we are looking at the magnified eye of a bullfrog, or a galloping horse captured at several thousandths of a second, it is the stillness of these photographs that gives us time to pause and marvel at the amazing diversity of life on earth.

A curated selection of my stylised bird portraits. Animal photography is about being ready for the split-second moment when it happens. This is seldom more true than when capturing birds in flight. The human eye can’t process the speed at which birds fly. The only way we can fully appreciate the beauty of feathered flight is to watch it in slow motion or freeze it at several thousandths of a second.
