Joe McNally

Joe McNally is an internationally acclaimed photographer whose career has spanned more than 30 years and included assignments in 60 countries. McNally is often described as a generalist because of his ability to execute a wide range of assignment work. His expansive career has included being an ongoing contributor to the National Geographic – shooting numerous cover stories and highly complex, technical features for the past 25 years; a contract photographer for Sports Illustrated; as well as shooting cover stories for TIME, Newsweek, Fortune, New York, and The New York Times Sunday Magazine.

The location of natural light is important when preparing for a photo shoot.  In this episode, Joe explains, though sketches and diagrams as well as by showing the actual shooting space, how he combined multiple flashes with available light to achieve a final product that brings out the unique environment of historic Preservation Hall, a famous jazz venue in New Orleans. He also talks about the importance of working quickly and efficiently in a high-end location.
