Hey everyone, my name is Tim and I work as a Director and Editor.

Unfortunately the weekend of July 23rd I had quite literally every single piece of camera equipment I own as well as quite a bit of rented equipment stolen out of my car in broad daylight. I had a couple projects over the weekend and when I went out to grab all my gear my window was shattered and everything was gone. For those that know me, you know my life constantly revolves around shooting. It really is every videographer/photographers worst nightmare. The insurance I had only covered damages and not theft and with no security cameras around I'm not sure what else to do. I have been searching the internet every single day trying to find any of it being sold online but have had zero luck.

Asking for help is not something I tend to do or would normally choose but I have had a lot of people tell me I should make a gofundme so here I am. I do not expect anyone to donate a thing but for those that do it's appreciated more than you know. I'm not asking for the full amount of what was stolen because I have already paid out some money and will continue to do everything I can to pay off the rest but I still owe the rental house over $8k, money back to clients whose footage was on my hard drives and will have to come up with thousands more to replace my personal equipment so any help at this point would mean a lot. The money will first be used to pay off the rental house, anything after that would start going to everything else so I can get back on my feet again. Thank you and even if you can't donate all the kind words have made things a bit easier to digest on my end.

Thank you all so much, - Tim S.
