Tim Anderson is a fine art photographer/publisher/educator. He has been in the field of photography for more than 50-years and favors black-and-white street photography, compelling color landscapes, surreal composite images and fine art nudes. He looks for the unique in a setting; something that might force him to “take a step back in order to see the image more clearly.”
Working in the same manner in the studio as well as on location, surprise is the most invigorating element of his creative process. No model or location is the same and he feels it is up to him to find that “moment,” that epiphany which captures an image that is both timeless and inspiring.
Tim publishes Shadow & Light Magazine, a bi-monthly, PDF, 100 page photography online magazine, which is also available in a print edition and has been in continuous publication for 10 years. He is the former publisher/managing editor of CameraArts magazine, and also publishes, “The Journal,” a bi-weekly photography-related e-newsletter that now goes out to more than 5,000 world-wide subscribers. Tim was also Editor-at-Large for Adore Noir magazine (online magazine). Besides photography, he is a writer/poet and published Frame of Mind, a poetry book, a few years ago.
He is a sought-after portfolio reviewer and his classes on “Developing Your Creative Vision,” are well attended. In the last couple of years he has adapted his classes to the Zoom platform as well as in-person.
Tim manages several art/photography Websites, leads workshops, blogs and coaches/teaches students. He has juried throughout the country for Review Santa Fe, Review LA, Photo Lucida, and The Center for Fine Art Photography, The Gala Awards, The Palm Springs Photo Festival, and Tokyo International Foto Awards. He has photographed workshops by Elizabeth Opalenik (Imagination & Dreams, Santa Fe Workshops), Joyce Tenneson (Santa Fe Workshops), and was asked by the iconic French photographer Lucien Clergue to document his nude outdoor location workshop in Béssége, France, in 2009.
