Imogen McKinley
I’m Imo, a creative practising as an Image Maker with a keen interest in creative direction, I am driven to create work that starts a conversation by mixing surrealism with reality on topics often underrepresented in mainstream media. Aiming to bring the joy of fashion the forefront of my work that will ignite communication around the undertones of the work and embracing individuality.
As a multi-disciplinary creative, I work across different medias with a focus on digital image making and creating strong narrative and character within image. Along with creative strategy, art direction and styling. Striving to create an environment that showcases uniqueness.

The Taste That Was Underneath
Editorial exploring how existing fiction can be translated into fashion image.
Drawn from The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender, a story mixed with human struggles mixed with surrealism.
The Taste That Was Underneath
‘Because the goodness of the ingredients - the fine chocolate, the freshest lemons - seemed like a cover over something larger and darker, and the taste that was underneath.’
- Aimee Bender
