Tyson’s PhotographyTyson took some pictures from the stage. There’s an interview about his photography and the Make-A-Wish foundation!
Tyson Ritter, lead vocalist and bass guitarist of The All American Rejects, knew little about digital cameras before picking up the Nikon D60?and he liked it that way. A student of traditional photography methods, Ritter favored loading film in a camera to inserting a memory card. After two months of shooting with the D60 he began to appreciate the advantages of working with digital. In addition, handling the professional-grade D60 has given him a greater respect for the many photographers he encounters in his music life.
Ritter shoots for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, a cause close to his heart. Through its wide-ranging, wish-granting network, Make-A-Wish endeavors to enrich the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions. Ritter’s first encounter with the organization came when the band was called upon to grant the wish of Jared, a young fan suffering from a rare degenerative disease. There’s a happy ending to this story. Since the night Jared watched his favorite band perform at the legendary Troubadour club in West Hollywood, his disease has been in remission.
