Keeping with tradition of last year’s post, I’ve decided to create a personal mix-tape with nostalgic songs that remind me of the experiences I’ve had this past year. 2012 was jam-packed. And what an adventure it was. Here’s the track-listing with the associated back-story of why I chose each song. Enjoy! Track 1 – Jonsi…
La Jolla celebrated one of it’s notable sushi restaurants double-digit birthday this past year, and you-know-who was there to photograph it! While the night was focused primarily on long-time customers & VIP clientele, I was limited on what I could shoot in regards to invading private party dinners & such. It was a privilege to not only…
Great shots Tim, I love your clients. You certainly know how to pick the fun people to work forJanuary 20, 2012 – 8:13 am

Last night, downtown celebrated the birthday of one of San Diego Nightlife’s most familiar faces. Ali Pouladin has been rocking the Wednesday night scene the past 2 years, leading Sidebar as the main industry night for other nightclub venues to come and enjoy a night off (or rather, a night of celebrating!) Last night, his…
Tim, you dominate this scene! Always fun to check out your stuff. Makes SD look bad assJanuary 17, 2012 – 10:32 pm
I swear that your nightlife photography is some of the best work broham!!!!January 13, 2012 – 10:08 am
@MRTHALLID – Right on, thanks for reading & keeping in touch! As for the lighting while getting into the limo, I guess it was just luck of the draw…was using available light from the street lights & just color-corrected the white balance in lightroom afterwards. Thanks for the comment, hope this helps!January 12, 2012 – 5:58 pm
I have been reading your blog for nearly a year now. I really enjoy your photos and the stories that go with them. For this particular set, the picture I am most impressed with is the one with the two men getting into the Limo. It looks like the perfect lighting! How was that accomplished?January 12, 2012 – 12:10 pm
San Diego Beer Week has grown to be one of my favorite events to shoot. Last year I had the privilege of shooting this event, and this year proved to be even more fun. Beer, brats, bread, and burgers filled the day at Torrey Pines Lodge, San Diego. The capstone event featured all the best…
Your pics encapsulate everything that’s awesome with San Diego. Well done.January 13, 2012 – 8:23 am
The picture of the 3 guys throwing up the drink is EPICDecember 26, 2011 – 1:54 pm
[Warning - this post may be considered 'not safe for work', as there are photos of men & women scantily clad] Now that THAT’S out of the way, let’s get on with the fun, shall we? This past Halloween, I was brought in to cover Fluxx Nightclub‘s annual “Fetish” themed Halloween event. While originally hired…
Really impressive stuff man! Your use of the flash & ambient light makes this event look like it was actually a photo shoot, like it was studio lighting. Really cool to see this kind of effect, haven’t seen anyone do anything like this in nightlife before. Keep up the great work!December 20, 2011 – 11:22 am
Love that 1st shot of the empty clubDecember 20, 2011 – 10:25 am

Jennifer - Tim, I love this. I feel like it so authentically captures you – the women you fell for, the excitement (and grind) of travel and work, and even a little bit of homesickness (thank god you’re human!). For a homebody/workaholic like myself it’s great having you in my life – I get to live through your pictures and your stories. I can’t wait for another year – and don’t forget to slow down and enjoy gems right in your backyard or hometown once in awhile :) Keep up the amazing work!January 2, 2013 – 4:24 pm
