Jared Tyler

Freelance photographer Jared Tyler is a promising teen with a creative outlook on the world. Tyler is based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where the 20 year old attends Western Michigan University. Tyler finds an artistic emotional outlet in his expressive photography. Tyler manages to capture the essence of his varied sentiments in life without saying a word.

Tyler is known to stand in the frame himself to play the dual role of photographer and model. His self-portraits reveal a personal side to his portfolio, exposing his own feelings that can vary from being somber and subdued to reflective and, at times, passionate. The photographer may be young, but he possesses a knowledge of visual themes and techniques that surpass his years. Tyler's incorporation of surreal elements is something to be excited about. Tyler aims to express his personal sentiments through his images, and he has done so while often standing alone in the outdoors.

Brighter than a star you will shine

Tyler wants everyone to consider him as one of the creators here on earth. Photography has changed his life and it has given others and himself a chance to step back in this world and appreciate the details that would otherwise go missed. Photos test the boundaries of time. They are the only visual proof of memories we have. Whether it be shot in film or file, a visual interpretation of the world through a viewfinder offers proof, honesty, and raw emotion.

Tyler has said "Photography has taught me to focus both on the big picture, but also on the fine grain. It builds an identity for the faces and places around me. I can't even picture life without creativity anymore. It has changed the way I see myself and others in the world."

Tyler has placed himself with the correct art niche. Both the subject and the expert, he merges roles. A them that has become a rarity for most. Surrealism is similarly central, seen in the following images below;

The Lives We've Led and the Dreams We've Left

Only The Wind Knows How to Catch Me

You Gave Me Your Wings

This notion of the ethereal will draw distinct crowds to his portfolio. As long as we continue to create and collect beautiful moments, memories will always be kept alive. And the creative beast within ourselves can be tamed.
