## Portraits with an Edge Featuring Photographer Joe McNally

## 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.
