Tyler Franz is a Traverse City native whose story proves you sometimes have to leave home to truly see it. After years away, Tyler returned with a fresh perspective and a renewed appreciation for the lakes, landscapes, and people that make this place special. Today, he channels that inspiration into two passions that connect him deeply with the community: skateboarding and photography. Whether he’s carving through a local park or capturing the quiet magic of Northern Michigan through his lens, Tyler’s mission is simple — to celebrate the beauty of Traverse City and the creativity of the people who call it home.
