Tim Briner
This week at Too Much Chocolate, I interview Brooklyn photographer Tim Briner about his Boonville series. It is beautiful and very thoughtful work, and I was happy to get some insight into Tim’s experiences while working on the project. I think you will enjoy reading it as well.
From the series Boonville, by Timothy Briner
Tim recently finished a small edition of hand-bound books for Boonville, and they look amazing. Each book consists of 37 black and white prints—printed, bound, and signed by the author. I am really looking forward to getting my copy.
Tim shared a few photographs from the making of the book, which you can see below.
Tim will also be exhibiting his work at Daniel Cooney Fine Art in January. A bit too early to mark your calendar, perhaps, but keep it on your radar.
Boonville was created with support from Cannery Works, a New York-based non-profit arts organization.

I spent a lot of time on this beach over the winter. It wasn’t until June that I discovered that it was clothing optional!

I received a print of the lovely photograph above in the mail this week from Ellen Rennard. I mentioned Ellen’s work recently when she had a piece in Daniel Cooney’s emerging photographer auction, but I thought it would be worthwhile to feature a few more photos from her website. They are so beautiful, and heartfelt.
Ellen’s work can be found at ellenrennard.com, and she has a blog, too.
