Tim Willcocks Photographer
Tim trained as an advertising and editorial photographer at the Medway College of Design, and has a fine art based Masters Degree in Photography (Distinction) from the University of Brighton.
The majority of Tim’s practice features photographs of people which are presented simply, playfully and which are often incongruous. Simultaneously the photographs convey complex ideas which, stylistically, are intentionally designed to appeal to a diverse audience.
