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!

KATIE VARGO :: SENIOR SESHIN IT

Seriously, I have the best clients ever! This next set of images is from a Senior Portrait session shoot with Katie Vargo. She was HILARIOUS to shoot with! Every time I would tell her to just “rock it” she would start throwing out these awesome poses and it made the shoot so easy and fun! Katie is friends with Lauren and Holly, who we also shot in La Jolla. The three of them all had this common sense of fun through their shoot. Here are a few from Katie’s shoot!

Starting off with a few model looks…

I was so stoked on these shots. Katie had such a cool “look” that she gave when I told her not to smile…

In front of one of the many awesome walls in La Jolla…

Katie you’re awesome! Look at these portraits!

I LOVE this spot! When I post Holly’s shots, you’ll see this spot pop up too. Doesn’t Katie have such a natural smile?! Again, RAD clients!

Another one of my favorite spots to shoot! The light has to be right to get it, but when it is, it’s ridonkalicious!

A couple of beautiful beach portraits…

Katie’s sister came along for the shoot and I grabbed this shot down at Scripps.

Katie, YOU ROCK! You were so much fun to shoot with and I’m so happy to have been your photographer! Have a great Senior year, CONGRATS!
