9. Timothy Allen
Timothy Allen is not only one of the richest photographers, but also a prominent filmmaker.
He has worked for the Sunday Telegraph and The Independent, but he is famous for his prints of indigenous communities around the world.
A zoology graduate, this unique photographer is one of the wealthiest at the moment. After graduating the zoology college, Allen, stumbled on his talent during a trip.
While he was 20 years old, in Africa, his passion for the art was ignited. Like all the tourist, he took photos of the trip and was mesmerized by the reaction they received from his family members and friends.
Since then, he started documenting the cultural heritage of societies worldwide and managed to rake in millions of dollars.
However, unlike most photographers, Timothy did not receive any formal training in photojournalism.
