Michael Bailey-gates, Photographer, New York

Description

This striking editorial photograph captured by Michael Bailey-gates features a tattooed woman posing indoors against a plain neutral wall and a wooden floor. She is wearing a red bikini-style garment with fringe details and bright red high heels, embodying a retro-styled pin-up aesthetic with sculpted blonde victory rolls in her hair. Her right hand rests gently on a tall wooden stake that is vertically stacked with a balanced arrangement of various gourds and squash. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting the textures of the wooden floorboards, the subject's numerous tattoos, and the organic forms of the produce.
