Desmond
Manny
A
self-taught photographer from Washington State, Desmond Manny turned to
photography in 2000 with the purchase of his first digital camera. He has
since turned to using film cameras and traditional black & white
materials, and admits to shooting mainly 35 mm. From the beginning he's
been interested in shooting nudes but he also shoots still-life's and does
the occasional portrait. His influences come from a range of sources, he
says, including photographers such as Jock Sturges and Henry Gibson, as
well as painters, particularly renaissance and pre-Raphaelite artists. He
also finds motivation in such contrasting sources and pop culture and more
mainstream adult magazines and movies. It's all about balance, Desmond
says, and photography, along with the care and smoking of his pipes are
what keep him on a very even keel.
