NFS mount permissions when user ids don't match

I have a machine that exports a user's directory.  The user
is id=1000 on that machine.

I want to allow any users on the client machine to mount the
directory.

The problem, I think, is that uid 1000 on the client (ubuntu) machine
is user admin, so a user can run mount /mnt/photos but then it gets
mounted as:

    drwx------ 6 admin users 4096 1969-12-31 16:00 photos

Is there a way to mount this so a normal user can have access?
