Hannah Bailey

Hannah Bailey is a passionate award-winning portrait and editorial photographer who has been immersed in the underground scenes of action sports, adventure and the outdoors for over 10 years. Born in Edinburgh, Hannah has traveled the world to document women in skateboarding, and her work has been recognised with awards from Getty Images, the Women's Sport Trust and Campaign Magazine, and her photos featured in media such as Guardian, BBC, i_D, Dazed, Asian Geographic, National Geographic and Women's Fitness. Instead of focusing on the sport itself, it is the free-spirited players and heroic characters that define the worlds of skating and action sports which Hannah feels most passionate about, particularly those that are girls or women. Her photos and projects show the real faces and stories of those involved in the culture, which she aims to take to a wider audience to inspire others and society as a whole.
