Model Flos Lunae (IG: @flos.lunae.model) and I had a lot of fun playing with this concept.

Model Ira Balan (IG: @ira_passion and @ira_passsion) wanted to try tape body art and I had a concept I wanted to try out. This is part of a new series I am working on this year.

Another image from the model-as-photographer series with model Aly Beany (IG: @alybeany).

Model Aly Beany (IG: @alybeany ) was good enough to indulge this concept that had been in my head for a while. Fortunately I used to coach fencing so could provide instruction. Prints will be available at https://www.dkmackinnon.ca/Prints/Art-Prints

More shapes and forms with strong backlight with model Katy (IG: @katy_de_modele). Prints can be purchased at https://www.dkmackinnon.ca/Prints/Art-Prints

Model Ira Balan (IG: @ira_passion and @ira_passsion) and I were able to get some time in the meadow during their last tour through Ottawa. This is just a sample; the rest of the images and a behind-the-scenes video are still in production

When this set and the video are ready, you will be able to find them at https://www.dkmackinnon.ca/Prints/Art-Prints

An experiment using reflective mylar as a backdrop with model Kori Vee (IG: @korivee). The black swimsuit is one of many pieces in the studio wardrobe.

You can see more of this set, as well as my other work, at https://www.dkmackinnon.ca/Prints/Art-Prints

Spring is here so it's time to think about swimwear. Model Ira Balan (IG: @ira_passion) is is modelling one of my chainmaille swimwear pieces.
