Hi, I'm Tim.

My passion is working with people… capturing emotion, and something intimate and authentic within my subjects. 

I’m told I excel at making my models relaxed and comfortable. Having fun on all my shoots is a must. 

Being successful at photographing people takes equal parts technical know-how, communication, patience and a great sense of humour.

Working with Tim has been an amazing experience every time we shoot. He knows how to keep his models safe, absolutely relaxed and is the best island photographer I have been with. I love how he always asks in the very end “are there any other pictures you’d like” and to me, that speaks volume and I really appreciate that. Whoever gets to work with Tim is extremely lucky:) When we do e-bike shoots, he always does 5 minutes of test runs to make sure we feel comfortable with the bike or the -scooter. Tim is truly the kindest person I’ve ever met in the photography world. Of course he’s more than just a photographer, to me, he’s a very good friend of mine.

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible work of Timothy West. His talent and skill are truly exceptional. The photos are not only beautiful but also capture the essence of the day perfectly. Timothy made me feel so comfortable and at ease, which made the entire experience enjoyable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-notch photographer. "I was blown away by the way he captured the natural beauty of the location we shot at as well. The photos are so vibrant and full of life.

Tim is a kind and gentle gentleman. He takes great photos and looks for creative shots. He is much into model photography from what I have noticed. He is always learning and challenging himself in new ways. Sometimes it can be a bit hard to set up appointments (due to things on my end and his end) but he is very communicative to see it through. Thanks Tim

I’ve shot with Tim on multiple occasions and every time has been both efficient and enjoyable! Tim is a humorous guy who does his best to ensure your comfortability throughout the shoot and the results are always amazing because of it. He is always down to try something new! I would definitely recommend. The photos do not disappoint and looked great in my portfolio!

Tim is fantastic! I've shot with him numerous times, he's covered fashion shows I've been a part of and I've hired him for headahots and lifestyle shoots. He is top notch talented, uses the best equipment, is friendly, kind and efficient. My favourite photographer in Victoria!

My husband and I hired Tim West for our outdoor September wedding and couldn't be happier with our decision. Tim was very personable and professional with us, our guests and the venue operators. He knew how to effectively direct and capture a scene while keeping the process simple and fun. We were especially pleased to receive positive feedback from our guests about how friendly Tim was. We did not have many ideas for specific shots, but thankfully Tim had plenty of ideas that turned out fantastic. We are very grateful to have had someone who knew what suggestions to make to ensure we received a full day's worth of photos. I highly recommend Tim for anyone's wedding or event as I am sure he will do a great job.

Fantastic job Tim! The photos are amazing and the video will be really helpful for a future marketing campaign. Really appreciate you taking the time to ensure we got exactly what we needed (and more).

I've used Tim's services several times now, both professionally and personally. The reason I keep coming back? It's not because he's an über-talented photographer who knows exactly how to compose a shot for maximum artistic impact (he is). It's not because he knows precisely how to pose a model so they look fabulous (he does). Rather, it's because he's such a friendly, jovial, pleasant person to work with with and so easy to communicate the exact result you're looking for. Tim clearly loves what he does and it shows. And he's damn good at it.

Services

Each week I photograph national and international models for the top modelling agency here in Victoria and so I get lots of practice being with people and helping them to look their best. I encourage you to ask anyone I’ve photographed with and inquire about the experience that they had shooting with me.

If you have a unique photography session in mind just ask…I’m married to a Yogi and so I’m quite flexible 😉
