Ron Wyatt's first attempt at photography was a failed attempt to document his honeymoon. Armed with a borrowed instamatic camera, he discovered that camera shake did not result in outstanding photographs. Ron has covered the NBA, NFL, and Major League Baseball as a self-taught photographer. Additionally, he photographed two Olympic summer games. His photographs have been published in numerous publications, including USA Today, Black Enterprise Magazine, Time Magazine, Newsweek TV Guide, and ESPN, among others. He has covered corporate events for Six Flags, Day Pitney, Honda North America, CVS, Pepsi, The Seeing Eye, Verizon, MetLife, Capital One, RWJ Barnabas Health, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, NJ Monthly, and Walmart, among others. His photography has enabled him to travel to various countries all over the world. Kodak assigned me to photograph two Olympic Summer Games (Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008).
