Tyler A.W. Burke is an award-winning fine art street photographer based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Tyler began shooting street photography in 2021. His emerging body of work has garnered attention from fine art communities locally and internationally - earning him an international award at his first public exhibition in 2022. Tyler’s street photography explores candid intersections between architecture and infrastructure, light and shadow, and passersby.
In addition to his fine-art photography, Tyler works as a commercial photographer, copywriter, and filmmaker serving retail businesses, the construction and design industries, the tech sector, social-impact organizations, educational organizations, couples, athletes, musicians, and other artists.
