Spend some time with Scott Kelby and crew as they share a day in the life of professional photographer Joe McNally (Time, LIFE, Sports Illustrated, National Geographic, etc.).
Start in Joe’s studio as they pack for the day’s shoot and travel with Joe and Scott to a photo shoot in NYC. You’ll get an up-close insight on commercial photography – the kind that a photographer reveals when having a conversation with a good friend – and learn not only the “how” of a job, but also the “why” from choice of subject to motivation. Plus, if you’ve ever seen Joe and Scott interact before, you know you’re going to enjoy yourself and laugh a little along the way.

Outstanding day with Joe. Insights with an artist; in viewing, I was as caught up in the process as Joe, cast and crew.

Awesome! It was amazing to follow his day and get a glimpse inside his thought process of the set up. The pictures were amazing. Thanks!

Fun and instructional. Creatively great ideas. Simple and dramatic. Loved the mix of TTL and Quadra for different settings. Joe's photography and instructinal materials have made me a better photographer. Highly recommended.

This one is so good, I just watched it a second time and it's likely I'll watch it again. I picked up so much the first time and learned even more the second time. Geo Joe rules.

Love! I love the photographer. Thank you Kelby you are my hero. So… discrete. We all know you are a god of all the techniques, but you asked all of the questions like a newbie so we can all learn. I admire you way…

Joe is the man that made me open my eyes to light. He is articulate, informative and entertaining to watch due to his excellent sense of humour. This course is especially great because you get more of an insight into his thought process, not just watch him work. Joe, if you ever come to Toronto, let me buy you a pint!

I positively loved this course. Although I don't have large operation like Joe does (just me) I still leaned allot. I liked the way little details were discussed, from the type of AA chargers he used (this made me feel good since I use the same kind although only 2 not 8), Hoodman HoodLoupe, how to start a shoot and then add lights, etc. I liked Scott asking questions which he felt the audience might ask (I'm sure he knew the answer to). I also liked the photo sessions setups discussions, for example what was wrong with a shot and how to fix it. I love working with small speedlites, so this reenforced a bunch of stuff and introduced more. I have access to several models so I now just need to find an abandoned building in Dayton, Ohio. Thank you so much - really enjoyed it. P.S. - looking forward to getting my Joe McNally TriFlash and my Joe McNally 24-Inch Satin EzyboxHotshoe which I have ordered. Nancy - DayOneDigital
