Bill Timmerman is a commercial photographer based in Phoenix. His career began in 1976 after attending Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara. In 1985 Bill and family settled in Phoenix to begin a freelance practice. A year later, he opened his first studio. In 1995 his emphasis shifted toward documentation work for several prominent architects, and within a few years to exclusively architectural photography, which he considers a best fit for his commercial work.These black & white photographs are a continuation of Bill’s personal photography, which began in 1971, when he exposed his first roll of b&w film. This personal work, made with traditional silver materials throughout, informs the spirit of all the photographic work he makes, including the architectural work.
