About Tim Stange
Artist statement
I am an artist that seeks to stop time with the use of the camera. I believe that life changes so fast and we move so quickly that we often miss some of life's most beautiful moments. Whether it is a fleeting moment with a loved one or a beautiful element of nature I take joy in stopping those moments and letting the viewer linger on them for a bit longer.
While there are many options for capturing images with modern digital photography, I find the most joy and connection with classical analog photography methods. I find that using older film cameras slows down the process and allows for a better connection with the subject. I use high quality films and cameras that allow for large prints that will last a lifetime. Photos that I print are on archival papers to ensure heirloom quality art that can be passed down and treasured for generations.
I create fine art photos of landscape, nature scenes, and the human figure. I also am able to create portraits and capture other moments for clients that wish to have their memories preserved. I seek to preserve scenes and moments as they are and don't rely on tools like photoshop for altering images to create the “perfect” image because I believe that the “imperfections” are what make us and life so beautiful.
Thank you for your interest in me and my work. I hope that the work that you see here inspires you to appreciate the beauty that is all around us in this busy, fast paced world.
Tim.
