Fine Art

Bohemia

Bohemia explores the role of the artist’s model while providing homage to Norman Lindsay’s works.

Beautiful curves, perfect skin and skilled posing by the models is the inspiration for his plethora of work and serves as the linchpin between the viewer and the artist. Nudes have been accepted in art for centuries, although the model has not had the same position of power and glory that artists have enjoyed. Here is a tribute to the artist and also to his models without whose skill, patience and daring we would not be enjoying his legacy today.

Lightness of Being

This body of work explores the way light affects two albino girls, how the elements can be harsh and still beautiful on them, how the imagination perceives them and how the rest of the world comes to know them.

This exhibition is a collaboration between the vision of a photographer, which has come to life by being open to, and incorporating, the skills of an artistic designer and from the beauty, talent and inspiration of two amazing teenage girls as the subject.

Real Women

Every woman,
without exception
is beautiful.

Sometimes she just cant see it yet. They just don’t know it yet, they don’t feel it yet and they don’t believe me until they come and experience it.

Generations

How many times do you hear people say, if only we took less photos of us all together?

The bond between families is something to celebrate, mother and daughter, grandparents and grandchildren and generations of family members is something you need to capture before its too late.

Boudoir

At some time in our lives we all realise that we should be doing something we wont want to or be able to in the future.

If you want something absolutely unique, something for yourself, something to make you smile forever then you want to have a boudoir session. It isn’t for everyone but everyone deserves it!

Victoria McKay

At 8 years old I still remember the sheer joy of being given my very first camera. I had that old thing until I was nearly 20, it took square photos and waiting for the film to be processed and come back seemed like an eternity. Now, just a few years later, my mission is to empower women and capture memories that will be cherished for generations.
