Upcoming Events!
Portraits with an Edge Featuring Photographer Joe McNallly
Date: Tuesday, June 30th · 5pm - 6pm ET
Location: Adorama Event Space + Livestreamed Online
Livestream Link: Adorama Events
The human face is as varied and expressive as any landscape, and light is what reveals its character. The right light can bring depth, beauty, and emotion to a portrait; the wrong light can leave even the most compelling subject feeling flat.
In this fast-paced demonstration, Joe McNally will transform a single subject through a rapid series of lighting changes, showing how subtle shifts in direction, quality, and intensity can dramatically alter mood, personality, and visual impact.
Join us for an engaging live demo and interactive Q&A that will deepen your understanding of portrait lighting and its creative possibilities.

Charles started his lifelong passion project, Agreeable Strangers, on a photowalk in July of 2011. His book is a selection from the first 15 years of the project.
Charles will show images and discuss:
- Knowing your "why".
- Hanging out in "good light".
- How to ask/connect with a stranger.
- The "why" of having a business card.
- Importance of offering to send a quality file.
- Working with the book's publisher, Snap Collective.
A copy of the book will be available for attendees to check out and to order. If you've ever wanted to photograph people on the street and were a little nervous about it, this presentation is for you.
