Jill Greenberg

I think I've just found my favorite photographer Jill Greenberg, who calls herself 'The Manipulator' which makes me like her even more.

Greenberg borrowed the name from the 80’s German large format magazine "The Manipulator", which covered art, culture and photography and was one of the many pop culture influences along with “The Face”, “Interview”, and “W”.

As you'll see from her website, Greenberg's chromatic, vibrant photographs capture striking portraits of anything from children, animals and music, to abstract locations, pop stars and CEO's. Her style is so attuned to detail that each subject appears like a waxwork; an effect obtained by the use of distinctive lighting and personally-executed post production.
