Joe McNally, internationally acclaimed and award-winning photographer, has a career that spans the world, has contributed to National Geographic for more than 25 years, has been awarded four World Press Photos for his work. 

He joined us this year at Adorama Inspire, demonstrating how to use the light to highlight the uniqueness of the face. In one hour, McNally created two different lighting paths, all with the mission to deliver two completely different looks to his client.
