On SNAPSHOT, explore the eclectic and often eccentric side of San Diego with photographer Tim Mantoani as he travels with his camera capturing the stories and pictures that make up this amazing part of the world we call home.
Tim has an eye for telling a story in a single frame of film but there is so much more to every subject than just that memory captured in time.
Tim is excited to share his encounters, whether it’s interviewing a visionary surf board shaper or crossing the border to Tijuana to experience the unique world of Mexican wrestling.
Through Tim’s trained eye and engaging personality, we can learn more about the people and places that make the San Diego area so rich with culture.
