Tim Flach is a British photographer who specialises in studio photography of animals. He has published several books of photographs.
Life
Flach was born in London, where he works and lives with his wife and son.
Work
Flach works in a studio in Shoreditch, in the East End of London. Many of his photographs are of captive animals and are taken under highly controlled conditions with the help of a large support team; he sometimes employs techniques more usual in human portraiture. For his book Endangered, published in 2017, he also photographed some wild animals in their natural habitat.
His work has appeared in National Geographic, Creative Review, The New York Times, The Guardian and The New Scientist. He has lectured at various universities, and at institutions such as the Zoological Society of London and the St Petersburg International Economic Forum.
