Tim Hills

Thanks for taking the time to visit my website and learn a little bit about me... I’m a photographer & Videographer based on the south coast with a passion for all things creative!

For me, photography is all about capturing that magic moment which can never be recreated or seen again, whether that be a beautiful bride, that perfect expression, your child’s first birthday or silly impression… The first read of a book, that one special look, the fancy dress photo your gran never took!

With so many talented photographers out there, it’s important to know you’ve chosen the right one for YOU. Taking photos is a two way relationship, after all, you’re likely to be on the other side of the lens, and having a camera framing your face can feel like a daunting experience.

Fear not! I’m a relaxed, friendly and stress-free kind of guy… Honest! It’s my job to get to know you and capture your special moments, so here’s a bit about me…

I’m Tim, an all-round creativity obsessed photographer, musician, tutor, vinyl junkie, coffee lover and incredibly proud dad. I’ve lived in and around Chichester all my life, I love it here. I love the beautiful surroundings, my wonderful friends and the vibrant community.

As much as I love taking photos, it isn’t the only thing occupying my time… When I’m not with my beautiful daughters, you are likely to find me with a guitar in my hands, playing in bands, pretending to be a rock star, or twiddling faders behind a mixing desk. In those few moments that I'm not keeping busy, you can find me appreciating a good cup of coffee or enjoying a perfectly poured glass of wine while I kick back and spin a few records.

So, what's my style?

Photographers are are all different, we all have quirks and ways in which we like to shoot. Some words I’d use to describe my style are ‘journalistic, reportage, documentary, unstaged’ My aim is to capture you in the most natural and personal way possible, with a sprinkling of quirky creativity to keep things fun!

What kind words have my clients shared?

“We’ve just received the photos from our wedding, which were perfect! Tim instantly put us at ease and our guests frequently commented on how friendly he was. We would recommend Tim to anyone, for any occasion. Many thanks”!

"Tim Hills is a talented and friendly photographer who understood exactly what I needed as a solo musician. He listened carefully to my needs and was happy to negotiate a set and price that worked for me. Even when shooting on location, in a small room, Tim managed to produce a huge variety of shots, with varying colour, depth, focus and angles. He surpassed my expectations, going above and beyond to deliver even more high quality photos than expected”!

"Tim was absolutely wonderful at our wedding, he made everyone feel very comfortable and took amazing shots. Thank you so much." 

"I can't recommend Tim highly enough! He took fantastic pictures of the kids as a present for my wife. The kids can be a bit shy, but Tim was brilliant with them and got them laughing and smiling in no time. Many thanks Tim, we look forward to doing more in the future."
