Manuel Rego's love of photography began in 1993 on a trip to the U.S. Virgin Islands.
In preparing for a cruise with the members of his family, on a whim he purchased a Vivitar 35mm point and shoot camera to record moments from the vacation trip. Once there, the views of the ocean and the stunning sunsets afforded by the ship in full sail, the beautiful beaches of Puerto Rico, and the amazing crystal clear waters of St. Thomas were all the inticement needed for him to become addicted to the world of photography.
n the year 2000, he purchased his first SLR, a Canon Rebel 2000 for the greater control and image quality it afforded. Under the coaxing of long time friend and mentor, Jeff Marshall, Manuel began experimenting with some basic portraiture.
Around this time the digital revolution in photography was starting to take place, and in January of 2003 he purchased a Sony DSC-F717. A self-taught photographer, the advent of digital photography allowed him to hone his skills with relative ease.
