President’s Message
Scott Kelby in May By Randy Van Duinen – M.Photog. M.Artist. Cr. CPP FDPE FDAE FSA
I am very excited that Scott Kelby will be speaking at TAPPA at our May meeting. Scott is an international speaker on many topics including Photoshop and photography. Scott is also one of the best photography and Photoshop writers in the world. He is sold millions of books around the world and is considered one of the number one writers on the subject. Scott started NAPP and Kelby Training which is now been combined into KelbyOne, one of the leaders in online training for photographers and Photoshop professionals. Scott is a local Floridian and this will be the first time he has spoken at TAPPA. His topic will be retouching people, something he does very well and I’m sure you will not want to miss. I want to thank Michael Landes and the judges for a great Salon last month. We had some incredible images and Eric Caparas took Best Of Show with an fantastic image of a mother cat and its kitten. I also want to thank Benjamin Todd for allowing us to hold Salon at his studio, he was a gracious host and it was a unique place to hold Salon competition. Best, Randy
