Bio
Bryan Watt graduated with a Bachelor and Master of Science in Photography from the Brooks Institute of Photography. He was an honor roll student, on the President's list, and received the First Year Award. At graduation, he was presented with a Departmental award and the Achievement Award - the highest award presented by the Brooks Institute of Photography. After graduation, Bryan taught photography at the Brooks Institute of Photography.
Bryan believes a socially responsible photographer leaves with a part of the soul; and in return must give by helping those in need. Bryan helps to arrange medical care at the local level, provincial level, and national level. and has even helped Lao children to travel overseas for heart surgery and facial-reconstructive surgery. Bryan donates all the proceeds from his photography to the children in Laos through the Health Frontiers Outreach Fund.
Bryan and his wife Leila Srour, a pediatrician have been living in the Lao People's Democratic Republic (Laos) since 2002.
