The Accidental Artist — Captured by Tymel

The Accidental Artist with an Eye of the Authentic.

Born and raised in New York, where every corner has a story waiting to be told, Tymel, an accidental artist, finds his canvas. What began as a mere tinkering with a camera soon unraveled into a profound love affair with the lens. Tymel Young, a former sales and business development professional, found his true calling in the technical artistry of storytelling through photography and videography.

Tymel's work is a breath of fresh air in a world awash with cookie-cutter content. His photojournalistic approach brings viewers right into the heart of the action – be it the electric atmosphere of a fashion show, the intimate moments of a wedding, or the raw energy of a concert. His knack for being at the right place at the right time, camera in hand, captures the unguarded, candid moments that most would miss.

But it's on the streets where his heart truly lies. Street photography, for him, is more than a genre; it's a way of seeing the world. With his lens, he captures fleeting moments against the backdrop of urban life, turning ordinary scenes into extraordinary snapshots of time. This passion for street photography is subtly infused into all his projects, lending a unique stealth and authenticity to his work.

The highlight of Tymel's career, so far, has been the inaugural Blue Note Jazz Festival in Napa Valley, 2023. Tasked with capturing the essence of this star-studded event, he navigated through stages and crowds, his camera becoming an extension of his vision. The resulting footage and photographs not only showcased his technical prowess but also his ability to thrive under pressure.

Tymel's journey is one of constant evolution, driven by a relentless pursuit of creativity and technical mastery. His refusal to stay static keeps his work innovative and fresh. From capturing Grammy Award-winning artists and collaborating with major brands to spotlighting rising stars, his portfolio is as diverse as it is impressive.

But beyond the glitz and the glamour, what Tymel values most is the impact of his work on his clients. The pride he takes in his craft is matched only by his commitment to client satisfaction. In his world, every click of the shutter and every edit in the studio is a step towards delivering not just a service, but an experience – one that resonates with the heart and soul of his subjects.
