Profile and About Tyler Curtis

BIO

John Tyler Curtis is an editorial and culture photographer based out of Los Angeles and Chicago. As long as crocodiles aren't sitting next to him, he will travel anywhere in the world in any manner to get the shot.

Tyler went to Indiana University to study theater, film and oil painting. The camera came 12 years later after meeting some well-known photographers whose lives seemed much more exciting than his at the time. He has never stopped shooting since that fateful encounter in the summer of 2005.

Besides delivering stunning imagery for the most discerning of major clients, he is also the creator and operator of www.darkroodemons.com - a cutting edge photoblog, which has traveled around the world capturing the best in parties, music, people and fashion.

Sir Alex Boston 2011

My first day around the club I was fortunate enough to catch Sir Alex close up. I am rarely intimidated by any celebrity but Sir Alex has an air of greatness around him that you rarely experience. He is brash, funny and above all a master at his craft.

Hanging with Jackie O.

My favorite snap of the tour. Our mutual appreciation for the gorgeous painting of Jackie O in the White House allowed me to get team captains Ryan Giggs and Wayne Rooney comfortable enough to do a few snaps with the piece.
