Are people noticing your backside?


At Denny Manufacturing, we always notice attractive backsides. Just take it from this old ad we found about our backgrounds (of course we were talking about backgrounds, what did you think?).

Even early on, photographers trusted us to be behind their most important subjects--from babies to celebrities (cough, Liz Taylor, cough). This trust in the quality of our products has kept us around longer than anyone else, since 1971 and counting.

Saying that we are the best is not just a tagline for us, it's a way of doing business. Providing you with the best products and service so that you can produce the best images (and making more money doesn't hurt). The times may change, but our commitment to you has always remained.

Still need more? Then give us a call! We don't have robots around here, so you always talk to a person. We'd love to hear from you and send you a sample of our quality backdrop fabrics so you can see and feel the Denny difference.

Don't have the time to chat? Then send us a message on Facebook, a tweet on Twitter, or a picture of your question on Instagram. We are, and always have been, here to help you. Talk to you soon!

365 Photo Challenge for Photographers

Our friends over at PetaPixel recently listed 7 daily exercises to help make you a better photographer. One, in particular, caught our attention:
We've seen a similar trend among Facebook users, called the "365 Photo Challenge," where users commit to posting a personal photo every day for a year. This acts as a type of visual diary, instead of posting status updates all year.

However, for the photographer, this challenge represents something far more creative. Taking a different photo each day means capturing different light, subjects, backdrops, and so on. This allows the photographer to think even more like a lens, seeing image opportunities in each space, indoors or outdoors.

Challenge yourself to taking a single shot without adjusting and taking more shots. Compare your photos each week to see what you can change before you capture the image.

Are you up to the challenge? Let us know! Post one of your 365 images in our comments below, on Facebook, or Tweet or Pin them to us. The more you send us, the more we can show everyone just how creative you are...so get snapping!

What's with the logo?

We may be in the digital age of printers and smartphones, but when Dennis Variali started Denny Manufacturing, this technology was not around. It may be hard for us to wrap our heads around, but our first backdrops were hand painted. Yes, we did and still do specialize in reproducing hand painted backdrops.
If the clothes don't give away the age of this photo, then the hand-painted laser beams will. The laser beam backdrop was HUGE in the late eighties through the nineties. Here, our in-house artist is producing five or more of these backdrops at once.

We may have updated our logo, but we still hold true to the way we started. As you can see, we still have artists painting our Old Masters backdrops by hand on a daily basis.

We also still hold true to our commitment to you, the photographer. That's why we continue to bring you innovative products FIRST, like the affordable Denny Duets. Your commitment to us has made that possible and is the reason we have been around longer than all the others.

Why are you loyal to the Denny Manufacturing brand? Tell us! Comment, follow us on Facebook, send us a Tweet, whatever you have to do to tell us what we are doing right for YOU! Your feedback is important and vital to our business, so feed it back today!
