Tim Hallam

 Born and raised in Mount Shasta, California the outdoors has always been a part of his life from an early age. Seeing great vistas, hiking the trails, camping in the forests, swimming in the rivers, and climbing the mountain all surely had an influence on him and it was only natural to try to capture and share these moments and places with friends and family. In 2006 at the age of 15 he bought his first used digital SLR, a Canon D60 with a whopping 6.3 mega pixels. From the start nature and landscape photography was his main area of photographic interest. 

In his later years of high school he attended a local community college where he continued his love for photography by taking black and white film classes where he got to experience and use one of the last operational college darkrooms in the country. He also took a trade program for metal fabrication and welding.

In 2016 he left the metal fabrication industry to pursue his longtime passion for nature photography full-time and it has been an amazing and constantly evolving journey ever since.

You may have seen his work at the Lithia Artisans Market in Ashland, Oregon or hanging in various venues in Southern Oregon and Northern California, or exhibited at several large art festivals each year, primarily along the west coast. He also teaches photography workshops. He is now on Permanent display at ART on FIRST in Ashland, OR
