A native of Tacoma, Washington, Tim Klein is a commercial/editorial photographer. His career spans almost 20 years, and he has worked very successfully with esteemed magazines and Fortune 500 companies such as Apple, Discovery Channel, Forbes, The New Yorker, and Smithsonian Magazine. He shoots with a variety of cameras but prefers his Leica.  “My photography is inspired by people, places, and things. I was trained as a photojournalist so I find inspiration everywhere — from my travels abroad to my own backyard. My biggest source of inspiration is light, especially the way it can dramatically change a scene. I love the glow of morning light through fog, the graphic shadows of noon light, the light of an overcast day, and the dramatic rosecolored light at sunset. I am fascinated by people and their stories — from celebrities and people overcoming a life-changing obstacle, to simple loving moments between a parent and their child. There is so much beauty in everyday life. I meet so many people from drastically different backgrounds and all of them inspire me tell their stories with photography. I am also drawn to nature, from vast open landscapes, to intricate details and patterns. The experience of really noticing the world around me is the greatest inspiration of all.” Tim currently lives and works in Chicago, Illinois.

"Galanos And Dovima," captured by Slim Aarons on January 1, 1960, in Los Angeles, California, showcases the epitome of mid-century haute couture elegance. This striking photograph features the legendary model Dovima, adorned in a stunning gown designed by renowned American fashion designer James Galanos, posing with poised grace in a luxurious atelier setting, surrounded by soft lighting and elegant drapery that accentuate the gown’s intricate details. The un-staged scene captures the seamless blend of 1960s high fashion and timeless sophistication, reflecting the era’s glamorous aesthetic and the collaborative artistry between designer and muse, continuing to inspire devotees of vintage couture and refined beauty. Slim Aarons (1916–2006), born George Allen Aarons, rose from humble origins and World War II combat photography to become a celebrated chronicler of the elite, vowing post-war to photograph only "attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places," with his works gracing magazines like Town & Country and now preserved in the Getty Images archive. This exquisite reproduction from Soicher Marin is printed on premium luster photo paper using state-of-the-art techniques, ensuring vibrant colors, sharp details, and enduring quality that brings a touch of mid-century sophistication to any space.
