About Me


Based in Scotland – thinking and working internationally.

TIMOTHY AIKMAN


Photographer / Traveller

As a documentary photographer whose work has enabled me to acquire a wealth of experience in working for British-based and indigenous organisations in East Africa, Asia and the UK.

From being part of an international team providing a range of services including tuition in HIV/AIDS prevention and provision of an outreach program, to covering prize-giving ceremonies in Edinburgh, I have always seen the people I photograph as participants, not just subjects


“TELLING THE STORY OF ORDINARY PEOPLE IN EXTRAORDINARY SITUATIONS.”


As a documentary photographer whose work has enabled me to acquire a wealth of experience in working for British-based and indigenous organisations in East Africa, Asia and the UK.
 
With experience in travel, charity, event and corporate photography, my unique and striking images have showcased the work of organisations from Edinburgh to Africa.

Based in Edinburgh, Scotland, I am willing to travel to locations where I can engage with and interpret the livelihoods and interactions of the people I encounter.

Whether you are organising an event, seeking images for marketing or wish to highlight the work your charity/NGO undertakes, feel free to contact me.

  • Timothy Aikman is a pleasure to work with. We’ve used him twice now – once for a charity ceilidh and again for an official visit to our charity office. He captured both events well and approached these with professionalism. We look forward to working with him again soon.Positive

  • It was essential that we had a reliable photographer who would produce good quality work and turn round the images in a short period of time. Tim did just that. He was easy to work with and produced an excellent quality of work for the organisation providing us with these in a timely manner. I am happy to recommend Tim.
