Tim Mantoani, 1969-2016

San Diego, California

Last week we lost Tim Mantoani to cancer. A talented, generous and rare part of our
photographic community is now gone.

Tim was known for his meticulous, beautiful color photography, and he left us with stunning portfolios of Cuba, sports figures, fellow photographers and countless assignments where his light touch and technique was put to good use.

But what anyone who met Tim will remember most was his thoughtful generosity.
He supported the photographic community – giving of himself, his experience and his
resources in a way that should be a model for how to interact with peers, clients, students and colleagues.

I was lucky enough to experience Tim’s spirit, first hand.  An amazing human being,
masquerading as a regular guy.
