The Wonderful World Of Tim Walker - by Teddy JamiesonMemories of childhood summers fade like a bruise.The mark lingers down the years, a fuzzy, yellowing vision ren-dered in Instagram sepia. Sun-light warming closed eyelids. The sound of the breeze in the tall grass, a creased copy of The Wind In The Willows nearby, the pages fluttering. The smell of suncream, freshly cut grass and salt and vinegar. Afternoons stretching on and on for ever. Dreamtime.“As adults, time is lost,” Tim Walker tells me. “We’re all so busy and everything is acceler-ated. What a child has is a lot of time to wander and daydream. That’s what I did as a child.”It’s what he still does. Walker is a photographer. He takes photo-graphs of models and clothes for magazines such as Italian Vogue and W. Some of the most recent have been gathered together in a book called Tim Walker Sto-ry Teller. I suppose you’d call them fashion pictures. But, re-ally, they’re daydreams on paper. Summer fresh and storied. Pho-tographs of a woman sitting in a biplane made of baguettes. Pho-tographs of a UFO gliding over a country fence in the middle of a hunt. Photographs of country houses and beds and Spitfires and blow-up see-through sailing ships. They do what the best fash-ion photography does – take you somewhere new.
