David Manning Photographers Bloggin bio picture

Welcome to dmp bloggin!

I'm a big believer in living life to it's fullest and for the most part, you'll find a smile on my face!  That's the short story about me.  The long story includes a passion for photography, playing my guitar, surfing, skateboarding, snowboarding, hockey, mountain biking, skydiving and more!

I like good coffee in the morning, and good wine at night.  Cooking combines three of my favorite things, creativity, food, and friends. So you can often times find me in the kitchen making an Italian family recipe.  You're welcome at my house anytime!  Just bring a smile, an appetite, and if you want to score big points, a bottle of red wine!  (Oh, and don't be afraid to have your picture taken.  If you're here, it's bound to happen!)

All of these activities are amazing, but they would not be nearly as fun or possible at all if it weren't for God, my family, and my friends.  These three are the most important to me, and I cannot thank them enough for supporting me on this amazing journey!

Seattle nights!  And that’s Hubert, my new bag buddy, in front...

SNAP AWAY

I just read an article in Digital Photo Pro magazine and had some thoughts that I wanted to share. It addressed the phenomenon of the “weekend warrior” photographer. The gist of the article was that because technology has come so far today, pretty much anyone with $500- $1,000 can pick up a DSLR and take...

STUCK IN SEATTLE

Ahhh, I am stuck in Seattle and I’m never coming home! Haha, no not really! There was just a bit of a…scheduling error, if you will. I thought I would tease Ryan about it a bit by telling you all. So we were at a conference in Seattle from Feb 28th-March 1st, so Ryan booked...
