Biography
Tim Rand is a relative newcomer in photography, having only took it up in early 2009. However, since taking it up initially as a hobby - he has never looked back! Tim joined renownded nightlife website, Tilllate.com and earned his stripes practicing with the little company camera's they provided, chosing to rely on improving his technique and imagination rather than the quality of the ca
mera. He eventually decided to take it to the next level and purchased a camera of his own, a decision he's never regretted. He's come a long way since those initial days, and takes a lot of care in all his editing and his style. When you see Tim on a night out taking photos, you see a guy enjoying himself to the fullest, having a good time with all the punters. This is not just a job to Tim, it's an opportunity to interact, and he loves every minute of it! In the last year Tim was made joint regional manager for Tilllate Nottingham, and to date he's covered venues from all over the country and beyond, taking photos for some of the world's biggest headliners!
