Tutu
Recalcitrance
Chrissie arrived in Glasgow for a weekend of shoots with this gloriously mad black and red tutu in tow. Over the weekend she also shot with McInnes, Monkeytwizzle and Simon Pole, and everyone got to shoot the tutu. This is …

Chrissie Red
Apposites Attract - Camera: <a href="http://mcaleavy.org/techniques/cameras/nikon-d100/">Nikon D100</a>

579 transfers
I had a shoot with Kat Love at the end of January, and shot some art nude stuff onto very outdated Polaroid 579. The watercolour transfers are in the Polaroid Nudes gallery.
