Kyle grew up in the Dallas, Texas area and found himself working for Case Harris, an advertising firm location in the heart of the creative environs down on McKinney Avenue.
In 1988, Kyle was hired by Wilson Lass. Even though he was a small advertising firm in Breckenridge, Colorado, he has many ideas and was very influential.
At the beginning of the year 1992, he did two brief stints with two fantastic and highly respected design firms – Sulivan Perkins and RBMM. Although this stint only covered six months, he experience the great pleasure of working with creative giants such as Ron Sullican, Brian Boyd, Steve Miller, Mark Perkins, Jon Flaming, Art Garcia, Dan Richards and many more. Their influence on how Kyle approaches creative problems can be seen even today.
Later that same year, Kyle landed the job all jobs with American Way Magazine. While the pace was relentless, Kyle gained a great deal of experience and industry recognition while producing editorial like no other. It is this position he held for three years that has influenced his photographic career the greatest.
At a very early age, Kyle knew he wanted to own and run his own creative company. Growing up in an entrepreneurial family he experience multiple ventures above and beyond running a neighborhood lemonaid stand. It was in 1996 that he formed a small graphic design firm, Dreier Design, in Dallas, Texas.
The bulk of his work was editorial for magazines such as Better Homes & Gardens, Ladies Home Journal, The New York Times Magazine, American Way Magazine and Individual Investor. Other clients also included United Airlines and IBM.
With a head first dive into digital from film, Kyle made a new commitment with regards to his photography work. Over the next few years, Kyle’s photography would evolve from shooting events such as the Iroquois Steeplechase in Nashville, the ING New York City Marathon to focusing on his two passions — food photography and architectural photography.
