Kyle Yates, professional photographer from Brookville, PA, recently visited the Digital Media Arts (DMA) program at the Clearfield County Career and Technology Center (CCCTC). Kyle talked with the students about what his life is like as a professional photographer. He explained to the students that they must be visual storytellers and being in the right place at the right time with your camera is very important in capturing just the right shot. He talked about rule of thirds, composition, aperture, lenses and equipment, and more.
