On Tuesday, September 27 at 7 pm the Bedford Center for the Arts Photo Group will host a virtual presentation by Nikon Ambassador, Vincent Versace.  The topic will be How to Approach Image Processing.   Vincent is an internationally recognized pioneer in the art and science of digital photography. His passion for natural light photography is manifest not only in his work but also through his role as a creative and technical leader, contributing to innovative breakthroughs across the entire digital image value chain.

Vincent is one of Nikon’s 16 founding Nikon Ambassadors and is a recipient of the Computerworld Smithsonian Award in Media Arts & Entertainment and the Shellenberg fine art award, as well as the 2019 Photo Mentor award. His work is part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum of American History, and he is the photographer of Immediate Assistants Medical Rescue Go Team. He was commissioned by the San Francisco Presidio Trust to create a body of photographic work to permanently capture this National Park and Historic Landmark. His work has been highlighted in numerous publications, and he has been nominated multiple times to the Photoshop Hall of Fame.  He is the author of best-selling books and has many other credentials noted on his website.

Vincent’s passion for photography dates back more than four decades when, at the age of seven, his wedding-photographer uncle introduced him to the magic of the darkroom. Within two years, he had sold his first photo. Within ten, he had booked his first professional assignment. Today, based in Los Angeles, he divides his time between commercial and fine art photography assignments, teaching, and consulting for such suppliers as Nikon, Epson, Nik, OnOne, X-Rite, Adobe, Westcott, and others.

This meeting is free and open to the public.  A meeting link will be sent to the BCA member email list.  Non-members wishing to attend Vincent Versace’s presentation as Guests should use the Contact Form on bcaphoto.org; select Guest Attendee under Inquiry Type.  Guests are welcome to attend two meetings, and then should join the Group if they would like to continue.
