I’m Earl Manning III, a photographer from Virginia who sees the world through my lens in black and white stripping away distractions to focus on raw emotion and truth. My work is rooted in Black culture, capturing the beauty, resilience, love, and heartbreak that shape our stories. I’m drawn to the depth of human emotion, and through my lens, I aim to preserve those fleeting moments that speak volumes. Photography, for me, isn’t just about taking pictures…it’s about storytelling, connection, and revealing the soul of a moment.
