Hey, my name is Tim.

I'm a recovering tech entrepreneur now working as a full-time professional photographer based in Hertfordshire, UK. I specialise in architecture, but my passion is trees and forests.

I left tech in 2017 and had a breakdown shortly afterwards, which nearly led me to take my own life. Having a fantastic therapist and spending lots of time in nature helped fix me up, and helped me rediscover my love for photography.

A few recent woodland images are below.

@timsmalley Ooooh, trees...now, only now do we understand what tree-hugging is all about. Some knew this decades ago. Have photographed lots, and have a local favourite.

@Judeet88 gosh, if you asked me for a favourite tree I wouldn't know where to start! There are too many favourites, but I tend to go to different forests to fulfil different moods. One of my favourite ancient trees fell a couple of years ago - I managed to photograph it one last time in full autumn colour in the middle of summer.
