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.
When Joe McNally was assigned to shoot a photo essay for National Geographic called “The Future of Flight.” That story would become the first all-digital photo essay in the history of that venerated magazine. In this episode, Joe deconstructs the lighting set-up for one of the most fetching images he shot for that assignment, and shares his thought process behind it.
