As a photographer, it's easy to get caught up in work and forget about the importance of taking time for personal photography. However, taking time to explore and make photographs for yourself can be an incredibly valuable and rewarding experience.
February 2023 cover for Sacramento Magazine
As an artist, there's nothing quite like seeing your work featured in a publication, especially one as prominent as Sacramento magazine. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to create the cover artwork and interior feature image for this month's issue, which focused on local art galleries.
In the process of completing this assignment, I had the pleasure of visiting several of Sacramento's most renowned art galleries, including Elliott Fouts Gallery, Archival Gallery, Axis Gallery, Blue Line Arts, The Brickhouse Gallery and Art Complex, Kennedy Gallery, Latino Center of Art and Culture, and Twisted Track Gallery. Each visit was a unique experience, and I was struck by the incredible range of talent and style on display. It was a powerful reminder of the thriving arts community that exists right here in Sacramento.
2022 in review
As a photographer, I always aim to capture the beauty and emotion in the world around me. And in 2022, I had the most wonderful year as a photographer. My name is Tim Engle, and I have been a photographer for 27 years. This year was not only the most fun I've had, but it was also incredibly fulfilling.
Location Scouting
Scouting your own locations for photography can be a powerful tool for serving your clients. By taking the time to personally explore and evaluate different locations, you can gain a deeper understanding of the unique characteristics and potential of each location. This can help you to better visualize and plan for the types of shots you want to capture, and to identify any challenges or limitations that may arise during the shoot.
Executive portraits
As a professional corporate photographer, I've had the opportunity to work with some fantastic clients. I've been blessed to have had such a great year, and I look forward to continuing my work in the coming year.
Life In The Gym
I realized the other day that this year marks 40 years that I've been working out in the gym. Other than during the pandemic, I've not been away from the gym for more than two weeks at a time. Not to give away my age, but I started as a very young teenager.
I consider the two most influential men in my life being my father, John Engle and Bill Cambera. This post is mainly about Bill and his influence on my life.
Telum Dagger
I love product photography and have been doing more of it lately.
I've always been fascinated by custom-made knives. I recently purchased Telum dagger from Bastinelli Knives and was inspired by the design to make some images.
