Top photographers in studio with Karl Taylor

We started this year with a bang as we welcomed some of the world’s top photographers to the studio for our ever-popular live talk shows.
Renowned wildlife photographer Tim Flach joined us for the first time and what an experience that was! A highly acclaimed author, passionate conservationist and skilled speaker, Tim had us all on the edge of our seats. From heartwarming accounts of reunions with his subjects to hilarious accounts of what it takes to get the picture, the time flew by far too quickly.

Tim started his journey into professional photography in 1983 as a commercial photographer, simply to “make a living”. He was driven by the visual element of photography but it was only 10 years later when he undertook a personal project with big cats did he get the opportunity to “do subjects I fancied doing”.

“Perhaps I wasn’t so good with humans, so I decided to concentrate on animals,” he said. “I always like that space of having another being opposite me, looking back. I love the aesthetics of natural creatures.”

From vultures to tigers, Tim’s work is instantly recognisable and as we worked through his images, he shared his thought process behind each as well as the techniques used to achieve his desired results.

Some 60 years later Tim’s passion for his work is as apparent as ever and he is currently in the process of planning his next book, which we can’t wait to see!

What is the best thing about photography?

There are 100 reasons why someone loves photography. But one stands out above the rest. Surprisingly, I never heard many people talking about this one. Photography is the great equalizer.

It doesn't matter who clicked, who was the person, his expertise, etc. in the end, ALL that matters is the picture. If people are honestly attracted by your work instead of your fame, position or status. Then, it is a marvelous and rare thing.

Photography is the great equalizer. When you see the photos displayed in the gallery, museum or in the pages of the books, magazines or on the screen of a computer, television, not because the person who made the images was important. But, just because the photo itself was important.
