LPC’s April 9 speaker is Dave Valvo, and the topic is black-and-white photography.
Dave has an extensive background in photography — more than 60 years of experience. He has a Masters degree in Image Science, and worked for Eastman Kodak and holds numerous photographic design patents. He has taught at Santiago (Chile), Sao Paulo, Mexico City, Toronto, and countless times in Rochester, NY, as well as photo conferences such as the CanAm Photo Expo.
