ABOUT THE TEXAS NATIVE
The creation of The Texas Native stemmed largely from my desire to venture into uncharted creative territories, and to do so across various channels. My ultimate goal for this project is simple: to create. Without any limitations or boundaries, I aim to work on this side venture with an unrestricted flow of creativity.
At the moment, The Texas Native is on a path that is without a predetermined direction, and honestly, I see it forever remaining that way. (My project, my rules.) While I do anticipate gravitating towards subjects that align with my background and various skillsets, I refuse to confine myself. This platform will allow me to exercise absolute creative control and embrace unrestrained artistic freedom. Essentially, the way I picture it, nothing is off the table.
The Texas Native will serve as an avenue for me to continually surpass my own standards, to constantly strive for improvement, and to relentlessly pursue new challenges.
ABOUT TYLER FORE
These days, I’ve hung up my professional hat, for the most part, and embrace photography purely for the joy of it - that is assuming that I remember to charge my camera battery first. When time allows, I dive into personal projects like this website, and occasionally partner with a select few clients who spark my creative spirit.
Texas, as you can probably guess, is where I call home, and where I have spent most of my life.
I thoroughly enjoy having conversations with new people and enjoy discussions revolving around topics that I may not have explored before. Fair warning: my coffee intake borders on what some might deem as extreme, but it's in those caffeine-powered moments that my brightest ideas take flight - or at least, that's the story I'm sticking to. The only thing darker than my coffee is my humor.
Famous? Eh, not so much, but my BBQ skills are at least decent. My life has been a blend of the semi-remarkable and the mundane, peppered with a ton of paperwork. I rarely take myself too seriously - something you've probably picked up on by now.
Writing about myself isn't exactly my cup of tea, as I hate tea, yet for some reason, I opted to include an 'About Me' section on this website—perhaps due to a touch of masochism or sheer boredom. I don’t know, and I doubt time will actually reveal the reasoning.
This blurb, much like my life, is a perpetual work-in-progress. It's subject to change whenever inspiration strikes, which, knowing me, could be anytime. So, stay tuned for the next iteration, or don’t.
