Tim Elwin (Aka Urban Ripples)

Tim Elwin, an Australian Accredited professional photographer mostly floating out at sea whilst the sun pops its head over the horizon, either with his camera, wishing he had his surfboard, or with his surfboard, wishing he had my camera.

When he’s not in the water, he’s working on a lifestyle, fashion or portrait photography shoot as well as food photography. Ultimately a photography allrounder.

Thankful to be alive after a horrific motorcycle accident in 2018, which left, among other injuries, a severely deformed left leg. Tim’s connection with the water pushed him through rehabilitation to get him back on his feet and back into the water doing what he loves best, shooting the sunrise and those people who brave the often cold and windy waters at dawn to start their day in the most vigorous of ways!

His accident causing Tim to spend months in hospitals and wheelchairs drove him (excuse the pun) to set up a social initiative called “Print For Print” which matches every sales from this website to with a donation of fine art photography to the local Hospitals. He has a goal to fill every room with calming yet inspirational art, please support this initiative.
