John Mckay, Make-up Artist, New York

About

This black and white editorial photograph features a Black woman standing in the foreground, wearing a tailored skirt suit with structured buttons and a matching hat, while holding a dark rectangular handbag. She gazes directly toward the camera with a composed expression. In the background, three men in suits and hats stand outside a storefront with a brick facade and dark awnings, casting sharp shadows on the pavement under bright directional light. The composition employs high-contrast monochrome tones and clean framing to evoke a classic, cinematic atmosphere. Make-up artistry by John Mckay in New York.
