Meet Edgar Ibarra

Edgar Ibarra, the creative force behind Online Detour Photography. Edgar is a Mexican American artist and photographer, born and raised in South East Los Angeles. Growing up as one of six siblings in a one-bedroom apartment with hardworking immigrant parents, Edgar's journey was anything but ordinary. Despite the challenges, he thrived, working his way up from a teenager at Ruby’s Diner to becoming the General Manager at the Newport Beach location.

After 13 years in the restaurant industry, Edgar made a bold decision to leave his career and pursue his true passion: photography. This leap of faith has allowed him to channel his artistic talents into capturing the essence of life's moments through his lens.

He currently resides in Orange County with his wife Jen and puppy Stevie Nicks.
