Photography Xavier Scott Marshall captures 'Ride Out,' a motorcycle-themed editorial for style publication The Ones 2 Watch. Starring model Fallou Gueye, the series is captured streetside and features images that are both artful and candid in their overall look and feel.
Whether spotlighting stills of Fallou's motorbike or closeups of the model, this editorial pairs cozy streetwear picks with high-contrast imagery. The photo series boasts a dark visual quality, spotlighting rugged apparel like puffy winter outerwear, and distressed jeans. Together, the pieces are paired to create an effortless and understated look.
Consisting of unposed and candid images, Ride Out celebrates functional apparel with youthful undertones, targeting fashion fans who are embracing understated styling rather than more opulent pairings.
