Kirsty Mackay is a Scottish documentary photographer[1] living in Bristol.[2] Her first book is My Favourite Colour Was Yellow (2017).[3] In 2017 Mackay won the Rebecca Vassie Memorial Award.[2]

Life and work

Mackay was born in Glasgow.[2][4] She studied photography at Glasgow College before leaving for New York City and London, to work as a photographer's assistant. She gained an MA in Documentary Photography from the University of Wales, Newport.

Mackay's first photo-book, the self-published My Favourite Colour Was Yellow (2017), documents the bias for the colour pink amongst girls in the UK.[3][5][6][7]

In 2017 Mackay won the Rebecca Vassie Memorial Award, mentoring and a bursary of £1250 to help in making her project The Fish that Never Swam.[2][8] The award is to help early-career photographers develop their careers. Mackay's project is in response to the Glasgow effect, "the impact housing and overcrowding has on the life expectancy of Glaswegians".[2][9]
