Damselfly
Damselfly is a server-based Photograph Management app. The goal of Damselfly is to index an extremely large collection of images, and allow easy search and retrieval of those images, using metadata such as the IPTC keyword tags, as well as the folder and file names. Damselfly includes support for object/face detection.
I did some looking and exiflibrary seems like a great option. I've never used it, but I looked at the code and it looks like a pretty nice library for working with metadata for different image types. It's also MIT licensed. Just poking around, it looks like you can read the image, strip the metadata, and output the image in 3 lines of code. Seems like it might be a great fit for your scenario and one I'll definitely try in the future when I need to do metadata manipulation.

Code is here if you're interested: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/blob/master/Damselfly.Core/Services/ExifService.cs - although this may be overcomplicated for OP's needs, and just a Process Launch is all you really need.
