Miles Aldridge
Photographer / Filmmaker
Miles Aldridge’s hyperreal women have long been a focal point of his instantly recognizable color-blown images. With a bulging portfolio of more than two decades’ work, he has shot everyone from models of the moment Siri Tollerød and Cara Delevingne, to supermodel iconoclasts, such as ex-wife Kristen McMenamy. With his photographs included in Vogue Italia, The New Yorker and The New York Times, among many other publications, as well as in the permanent collections of the National Portrait Gallery and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, Aldridge shows no signs of slowing.
