Colleen McMahon is a 20 year old self taught photographer from Ayr. She has some excellent pieces in her folio. Really liking that diffused glow and the colours she gets in her portraits.

“I picked up my first camera when I was 15 without any idea how to use it – five years on, I’m trying to constantly improve and perfect my photos. I Grew up in South Ayrshire, and hope to move to Australia and New York in the coming months. My biggest inspiration comes from high fashion trends set by the best and colour palettes from surrealists painters.”

“I try to make my work vibrant, energetic and as full of emotion as possible, being self taught I feel I’m constantly out to prove myself. I was Shortlisted to Nikons photographer of the year 2009 had a 4 page spread in Digital Photographer magazine and have been featured in exhibitions in my hometown of Ayr. I am currently working on personal projects and client work, in my local area with loads more exciting work to come.”
