There's no way to copy photos directly (e.g., via the Finder, if that's what you were hoping). Instead:


1 - Import them into iPhoto (or Photos.app if you upgrade to 10.10.3).

2 - Create a photo album containing all your pictures

3 - Use iTunes to sync your iPad, after telling iPad which photo albums you want to sync
