A Unique Approach

Manny’s range of experiences and contact with celebrities provides him with innumerable anecdotes to pique the interest of otherwise preoccupied corporate subjects. Always aware of body language, he is skilled at "reading" an individual’s persona, and building a relaxing rapport. His personality, demeanor, and friendly conversational approach enable capturing the "real" personality of executives in especially brief photo sessions. Many top executives specifically request Manny when it is time for the previously dreaded annual photo sitting.

Making a unique image from a seemingly mundane situation is a challenge Manny relishes. He obtains successful results through experience, by utilizing a variety of techniques and skills that have been honed through years of perseverance, and the ongoing quest to create innovative, distinctive photographs. This ability is especially desirable when working on annual reports.

Because of the gesture and perception of reality in his images it is only logical that his style is best characterized as "editorial." He has more than 500 cover photographs along with thousands used internally. His images are not happenstance; their success relies on understanding the subject, the needs of the client, and carefully planning and reacting instinctively to capture the essence of the moment. Photographing action for the most demanding clients in the world has given him the decisive edge in capturing that brief slice of time.
