Holly McGlynn
Holly McGlynn is water and mercury. Infectiously outrageous with scruples of a saint. Wild spirit, warm heart. Monstrous and human. Many-coloured, though greener than green. She champions global brands, but takes to heart their workers and treatment of the earth. Little wonder that in every single image, there’s more than one point of view.
Holly McGlynn
Like a new gold coin, there are two shiny sides to Holly McGlynn. One an outrageous, fearless, many-coloured, in your face, downright reckless fashion and portrait photographer. And on the flip side, a lover of the world and all that lives there.
Holly will do anything for the right shot. At a nudist swimming pool once, she got nude to get closer in. It was the only way. What the hell. Go. On shoots she laughs, jibes, mocks and doesn’t stop till everyone does. It’s called bringing out colours. And it shows in each shot. Shouting, right in the eye, saying what it says.
And then there are her loves. Diversity, equality and sustainability in the fashion industry. Holly gives priority to brands whose equity lies in how they respect, not just what they sell.
By shooting with Holly, you’re aiming not just for brilliant shots, but a better fashion industry. That’s worth taking your clothes off for.
