Rick Guidotti, an award-winning photographer, founded Positive Exposure after a chance encounter in 1997 with a young lady living with albinism at a bus stop in New York City. (Albinism is a genetic condition that results in the reaction or absence of pigmentation in the hair and skin.)

As an artist, Rick was taken by her extraordinary beauty. In a quest for a better understanding of albinism, Rick sought out medical textbooks, where he was affronted by the dehumanizing images depicting disease as lacking all humanity. It was this experience which forced Rick to turn his lens from the more traditional ideas of beauty to the beauty and richness of human diversity. Rick has since spent more than twenty-five years collaborating internationally with advocacy organizations/NGOs, medical schools, universities, and other educational institutions to effect a sea-change in societal attitudes towards individuals living with genetic, physical, behavioral, or intellectual differences.
