- The London-based photographer Perou has been photographing Marilyn Manson for more than 20 years, and a new book chronicles the highs and lows of their intimate relationship. Here he recalls some of their encounters. Marilyn Manson by Perou: 21 Years In Hell contains over 350 images, many previously unseen, and is published by Reel Art Press on 9 June
| This image from 1998 was from the first shoot I did with Manson –it was also the first time I met him – in Los Angeles, shooting a cover for Time Out magazine. Prior to this, I had been listening to Rock n Roll Nigger as loud as it would go, driving round London with the top off my 1982 Transam. He wasn’t what I was expecting; maybe I wasn’t what he was expecting. Something clicked, though, and it wasn’t just the shutter of my camera | 
|
| An image from the first press session we shot in Amsterdam, wearing a piece by Whitaker Malem. Every time I have photographed Manson over the past 22 years, he is different, always evolving, no repetition, never dull. And usually up for trying something creative and unexpected | 
|
| Berlin, 2017: this was for a Christmas feature for Kerrang! magazine. Very Zone Blanche | 
|
| A trip to Moscow, 2001. This was such a nutty time. On this tour, we would sometimes go off on our own for an evening photo safari, with just his bouncer and a driver, and take pictures around whatever city we were in. After having to bribe my way out of Moscow, I promised myself never to return to Russia, and I haven’t since | 
|
| Manson in 2003. We both love a good hat: my bowler comes from Lock & Co on St James’s Street, London, which made the first bowler hats. I don’t know where Manson got this one | 
|
| 2017. How many times can I be accused of being a member of the illuminati? It’s not my fault people like Dame Helen Mirren, Jay-Z, Ian Brown and Marilyn Manson keep throwing triangles or covering one eye in photos. This was shot in Manson’s self-decorated bathroom, on the first of a three-day press shoot | 
|
| 2017: A press session shot in the studio and pleasingly used on huge banners for some live shows. We had shot another version of this on the roof of Manson’s managers’ house in the Hollywood hills, and let rip with some black smoke grenades. We were soon visited by an LAPD helicopter checking out what we were doing and had to hide the machine guns and wave politely | .jpg)
