Early Announcement Due to Anticipated High Demand
Grays of Westminster and Nikon Owner magazine would like to invite you to their grand Christmas Event in the magnificent Regency Restaurant at the Institute of Directors (IoD), 116 Pall Mall, London. The champagne reception and superb Christmas dinner will be followed this year by a unique presentation by internationally acclaimed photographer and Nikon USA Ambassador Joe McNally.
Joe McNally was recently named as one of the “Top 5 Most Socially Influential Photographers”, as well as the 2015 Photographer of the Year by PMDA*. He bought his first Nikon camera in 1973 and for forty years, from the deserts of Africa to the snows of Siberia, he has seen the world through his Nikon cameras and lenses.
His expansive career has included assignments in over 60 countries. He is 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, the last staff photographer in the history of LIFE, and he has photographed cover stories for TIME, Newsweek, Fortune, New York, and The New York Times Sunday Magazine. His client list includes FedEx, Nikon, Epson, Sony, General Electric, MetLife and Adidas and he has held numerous lectures and workshops at distinguished institutions such as the National Geographic Society, Smithsonian Institution, the Disney Institute and the U.S. Department of Defense.
The Institute of Directors is a grand Grade I listed Regency building and its sweeping marble staircase and vast walls covered in 18th and 19th century canvases provides a spectacular backdrop for the evening; the period restaurant at the IoD is a most fitting venue for this elegant celebration.
