Sally Mann has influenced me, her photographs of her own children in ‘Immediate Family’ have been described as controversial and she’s been accused of manipulating her young children. Mann’s black and white images of her children are beautiful yet there is a certain level of discomfort viewing some of them. The expressions in the children’s eyes can be intense but often show them free and even naked, they do implicate a certain voyeurism and can make the viewer feel like an intruder.
