Los Angeles-based photographer Kelia Anne MacCluskey explains that she found her way to photography only after attempting “nearly everything else.” In her words, “the rest is history.” With a BFA in photography from the Savannah College of Art & Design under her belt, MacCluskey makes work driven by what she describes as “accessible joy.” Her steadfast eagerness is tangible in her ambitious and inspired images, and she directs motion pieces by the same ethos—”creating surreal and timeless worlds that allow you to briefly live within them.”
