Tim uncovers beauty in the mundane, the sublime in the everyday. His images are classically composed, subtle fictions that recall the intimacy of snapshots of family and friends. Tim brings a natural curator’s eye to his work, envisioning photographs as pieces of a puzzle, fragments of a larger picture. He established himself as a celebrated curator through launching tinyvices.com. The online gallery of personally hand-picked photographers enabled his curious, knowing eye to evolve independently, away from conventional rules of process, time or context. Tim’s insatiable creative energy keeps him constantly engaged in photographic projects both for himself and others, in addition to his commercial jobs.

Capturing the in-between times, sunflares at dusk, dawn, and unguarded, intimate moments, Tim’s subtly beautiful observations are published for the first time in a monograph by OHWOW, Untitled Photographs, launched at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2011.
