WELCOME TO JOHN-KENNY.COM

John Kenny is a Manchester-born photographer with a love for Africa and for simple, striking compositions. John's work of the last 3 years with remote African societies - in 'Sub Saharan Journeys' - reflects a deeply held passion to capture the beauty of this majestic continent and it's people. John's beautiful, naturally illuminated images of his subjects have been featured in the mainstream press (The Times, Telegraph, Conde Nast) and regularly showcased in the photographic and creative arts press. John's photographs are also regularly exhibited in London and at major European art fairs (Paris, Amsterdam, etc.)


John says of 'Sub-Saharan Journeys', 'I want to share with people, in the best way that I can convey, the incredible cultures that are surviving in Africa as we reach the third millenium. Africa will continue to be an ongoing passion for me as there are still so many pockets of beauty that I have yet to see, and I will always remain drawn to the warmth and radiance of its people.'
