Photographer Wade Byars Returns



On Sept. 27th, Desert Sun photographer Wade Byars returned to the Di classroom to discuss his career and speak to students about the digital creativity in his self-published book.

Byars, who holds an MFA in fine art, has been working as a southern California photojournalist for 19 years covering events such as the 1984 Summer Olympics and the 1992 Los Angeles Riots.

Shooting events as they have occurred over the years has given him an amazing set of image resources to use for Photoshop artwork. Students enjoyed learning the intricate meanings of his creative work as well as getting a few pointers on shooting high school sports.
