Tim Hunter Photography

Tim Hunter Photography combines vintage pin-up, modern fashion, and classic glamour to create timeless images.

I refer to my group of models as "Tim Hunter's Hunny Bunnies"

































I have been shooting digital since 2002 and models since 2008. I am self-taught and a fast learner. I have a passion for creating images that make me smile. People tell me I make them feel comfortable in front of the camera. Often comments I receive from models are "My mom saw the pictures you took of me and really liked them." I am literally mom approved.

I am attending photography classes to fill in the gaps in my technique -- because being self taught can only take you so far. I've learned so much and I'm applying it on every shoot. I'm also shooting weddings and quinceaneras, mom and daughter shoots, portfolios for models of all ages. My goal is to be well rounded and be able to do excellent work on all types of photography.

(2011 Update -- Now I am giving demonstrations at the photography school on how I do my shoots with hotrods and Hunny Bunnies).

I prefer Nikon over Canon. My first digital camera was a Fuji, then another Fuji and the Nikon I'm using is closely related to the Fuji. They've been very good to me.

My specialty has been shooting models in the "real world" vs. studio -- so if it looks like she's standing by a spiral staircase or the bow of ship or the front of a 1955 Corvette or the wing of a World War 2 C-47 airplane -- she was. I am now doing more studio work. My long term goal is to be the best possible photographer I can be. I am very competitive and highly motivated. Working with me is fun and one of my primary motives for shooting is that pictures make people happy and are often good for the self-esteem of the models I shoot -- and that makes me happy.



I'm am primarily shooting on location around southern California, but also have studio options.

I am available to travel -- if you're buying, I'm flying.

The Facebook portfolio is updated most often. The Myspace galleries
have become more of an archive of my work from 2008-2010.
