Timothy began his career in art early, even being regarded as a prodigy by some of his instructors and teachers. He spent many years refining his fine art skills, giving him a sharp sense of composition and design that transcends over to his photographic work. He also has an unusually sensitive eye for interpreting light, giving him an edge only a formally trained artist, with years of experience, has.

After having experimented with almost every photographic field (you can view some of his work here), Timothy has fallen in love with recording personal memories for his clients and has made portrait and wedding photography his focus.

His artistic abilities have yielded him many accolades and also often get Timothy selected for elite projects based on his talents. Such as having been hired to photograph many of Missouri’s political officials, such as Jay Nixon (during the 14th NCCAN), and the late “Buzz” Westfall (for the Missouri Growth Association) among others. Timothy also shot the reference photographs, of a St. Louis family, for internationally known painter PJ Lynch, whom resides in Ireland. This project was in conjunction with the company Johnson and Johnson. Just recently, Timothy has been trusted to photograph an international wedding in Cancun, Mexico in November of 2004.

His talents extend into Athletics, Mathematics and also craftsman type of skills: and he maintains a renaissance type of philosophy. His greatest focus and passion remains photography, but the great benefit of having this renaissance philosophy is that he feels aspects of other studies and interests find their way into his work. “When I’m finding just the right angle for a composition I feel as though I’m painting; when I capture a split second moment, the reward feels like that of a breakaway goal.” This renaissance philosophy is also the origin of his company name – being and artisan and a craftsman himself.

He currently spends most all his time fine tuning his photography or spending time with his daughter, Madalynn, and wife, Heather (though not enough time). Both have been an incredible inspiration to him. Heather photographs along side Timothy much of the time, her background being in photography as well. They both continue to expand their expert knowledge and create heirloom memories for all of their clients.
