Hey, I’m Tim 👋

I’m the photographer behind Tim & Sara Bates Photography. I work with actors, families, and creatives all across Northeast Ohio, and my goal is pretty simple—photos that actually feel like you. Not stiff, not overdone, just real, confident, and something you’re excited to use.

Whether it’s headshots, portraits, or capturing a moment on stage, I’m all about finding those little in-between moments and making them count.

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m probably watching horror movies, cheering on the Reds, or performing in a local theatre production… or hanging out with Scout 🐶

Loved getting to capture this new work by . I love getting to see new musicals come to life, and this one had so much heart and a ton of 2000s nostalgia ✨

Aria bringing all the confidence and color 🎨✨

We played with a few different looks and backdrops and she nailed every single one. From soft and natural to bright and bold, she made it easy.

Headshots for musicians 🎻

Your headshot should feel like you—not stiff, not generic. Whether you want something clean and classic or a little more personality, we’ll find what works.

We keep sessions relaxed, give you direction that actually helps, and make sure you walk away with shots you’re excited to use.

If it’s been a while (or you’ve never loved your photos), let’s fix that.
