Miles Aldridge

He studied illustration at the Central St Martins to follow his father's steps and afterwards briefly directed pop videos (for bands including The Verve, The Charlatans and Catherine Wheel).

[4] Aldridge worked as an advertising photographer for Longchamp, MAC Cosmetics, Sergio Rossi, Carolina Herrera, Lavazza and Mercedes E-Class, among the others.

The exhibition and a monographic volume were the peak of a project combining drawings and photographs, born from a collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld and Gerhard Steidl.

[10] In 2013, Brancolini Grimaldi (London based Art Gallery in Somerset House) announced a Rizzoli special edition of Aldridge's new book I Only Want You to Love Me, limited to 200 signed and numbered copies.

[12] His influences include film directors Derek Jarman, David Lynch, Federico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni, the photographer Richard Avedon and the psychedelic graphic design of his father, Alan Aldridge.
