Hi there

I’m Tyler Franz

Traverse City photographer

 

I am a photographer based in Traverse City, Michigan, focused on weddings, portraits, families, music, animals, and senior portraits. Although these are my main pursuits, I am available to shoot photographs of any kind.

My work is heart felt, emotional, and heavily influenced by my love of black and white photography. Preserving moments in an image is my passion and nature is my happy place. Combine the two, and that is where I feel most at peace. There is something really special about capturing the human spirit in a photograph, doing what you love most with those who are dear to you.

I’m here for the artists, the dreamers, the lovers, and for those who walk through life leading with their hearts. I will be there to capture every moment of your story with a sense of ease and joy. This life is so beautiful and I absolutely love capturing humans doing what makes them happy. Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. We were put on this earth to inspire one another through respect and compassion. I want you to feel comfortable being your true self. Let’s go on an adventure!

 
 
 
 

I grew up in Traverse City, Michigan. My love runs deep for the lush green forests, Lake Michigan and four seasons that each bring their own unique beauty and feelings within us. Northern Michigan brings a sense of peace and healing that is difficult to put into words. I am forever inspired by this part of the world, letting it shape me into the human and photographer I am today. Michigan is home and I am forever grateful for that.
