Picture Perfect. The photo duo behind some of fashion’s glossiest shots
Mert Alas, born in Turkey, and Marcus Piggott, born in Wales, met in 1994, at a party on a pier in Hastings, England. Piggott asked Alas for a light, the pair got talking, and rapidly discovered they had plenty in common, not least a love of fashion. Three years later, the duo now known as Mert and Marcus had moved into a derelict loft in East London, converted it into a studio, and had their first collaborative photographic work published in Dazed & Confused.
These days, Mert and Marcus shape the global image of such renowned brands as Giorgio Armani, Roberto Cavalli, Fendi, Miu Miu, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, and Lancôme, and public figures including Lady Gaga, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Linda Evangelista, Gisele Bündchen, Björk, Angelina Jolie, and Rihanna. Their photographs encompass a wide range of styles and influences but are renowned particularly for their use of digitized augmentation of images, and a fascination for strong, sexually charged, confident female subjects: “powerful women, women with a meaning, a you-don’t-have-to-talk-or-move-too-much-to-tell-who-you-are kind of woman.”
Bringing our best-selling Collector’s Edition to an affordable, compact format, this collection explores the unique vision of a creative partnership that has defined and redefined standards for glamour, fashion, and luxury. Approximately 300 images from the megawatt Mert and Marcus portfolio are accompanied by an introduction by Charlotte Cotton.

This is the first monograph to be published in the West on the work of Mika Ninagawa, one of Japan’s most celebrated photographers.
The appeal of Mika Ninagawa’s photography can best be summed up by a signature approach that is bathed in vivid colours and is dreamlike in its manipulation of depth of field. Whether it is portraiture, landscape, or still life, at the heart of her work are themed looks that rotate between flora, fauna, landscapes, and glamorous young women to create Ninagawa’s lush fashion tableaux. A cultural superstar in Japan, where celebrities seek her portraiture, she is now breaking out in the West. Ninagawa shoots her ornately clad human subjects against baroque stylings that suggest a firm grasp of practical scenography, and the work achieves a calm, pictorial mastery.
Portraits of local and international personalities, from Chiaki Kuriyama to Beyoncé, pepper her portfolio, and her distinct and vibrant aesthetic has been very influential in the fashion world.
Lauded in Japan as an art and fashion photographer, the assertion on Mika Ninagawa’s official website of being "Japan’s most popular photographer" is no idle boast. She is certainly the most prolific. Formally represented by Tomio Koyama’s influential gallery, Ninagawa’s images are widely exhibited in Japan and abroad. She has had key installations at Colette in Paris and Arndt and Partner in Berlin and is a frequent participant at Art Basel Miami. She received the prestigious Kimura Ihei Award in 2001.

Ruven Afanador - one of today’s most respected and in-demand editorial and fashion photographers - presents Mil Besos, a unique and arresting vision of the flamenco women of Spain. Often photographed wearing haute couture creations that were inspired by their dancing, the women’s vibrant and dramatic personalities come alive in Afanador’s portraits. This instant classic is an homage to the passions and traditions of the soon-to-be-lost culture of flamenco, a singular art form that has influenced the work of filmmaker Pedro Almodovar, as well as fashion designers John Galliano and Diane von Furstenberg, who have contributed insightful texts to this luxuriously produced monograph. Mil Besos will appeal to classic photography lovers, dance enthusiasts, and fashionistas alike.
About the Author:
Ruven Afanador is the author of two photographic monographs, including the highly collectable Torero. He is a longtime contributor to Vogue, Vanity Fair, and Elle, as well as The New York Times. John Galliano is the head of Dior and one of the most innovative fashion designers working today.
The first monograph from the brilliant fashion photographer Miles Aldridge. With a cinematic approach to fashion photography, Miles Aldridge creates singular scenes with psychologically complex characters in surreal and fantastic settings. His brilliant, candy-colored images engage viewers with an appealing mix of overt sexuality and sweetness. No detail is left uncovered in his eye-popping, erotically charged fashion photographs, which transform slightly sordid scenarios into acid-hued glamour. Each photograph is a complex world unto itself, and these lush images invite viewers to linger, for there is always something else to see, some deeper layer of meaning to uncover. Including hand-drawn storyboards that Aldridge uses to fix the idea of a shoot in his mind, as well as previously unpublished material, this monograph is filled with intimate insight into the photographer’s point of view and process. With deliciously naughty scenes and lushly evocative photography, this book lures readers into Aldridge’s irresistible world.

The people in Mona Kuhn’s photographs are nude but not naked. Completely relaxed before the camera, they give the impression that nothing could clothe them better than their own skin. With a unique style, Kuhn’s intimate photographs of both young and old are sensual compositions of skin and wrinkles, light and shadow, gestures and gazes. She creates taughtly composed images which balance sharply rendered portraits against blurred backgrounds to lure the eye and provoke the imagination. A Los Angeles-based artist of German-Brazilian ancestry, Kuhn photographs in naturist communities in France. The models are her friends, and the resulting photographs reveal a comfortable and graceful intimacy between the artist and her subjects. Containing luscious young bodies that suggest the meditative repose of classical statuary, the mood is languorous, projecting an almost Edenic eroticism that is neither “sexy” nor exploitative.
After his bestselling book Déja vu, Jean-Baptiste Mondino presents his equally mesmerizing sequel Two Much. His photographs, digitally processed pictures, and video clips radically changed the commercial strategies of the rock, pop and fashion industry and made him the image guru of the young generation. Presenting Mondino‘s creative output of the past five years, Two Much bears striking witness to the delight he takes in playing with zeitgeist expressions and to his boundless ingenuity. Technically brilliant, with an equally rich and scintillating mix of black humor, glamour, and bizarre erotic visions, Two Much is an essential source of inspiration for all those who by profession or by passion deal with photography, advertising, and lifestyle.

About the Author:
Born in Olten, Switzerland, Marco Grob worked for 20 years as a still life photographer before deciding to focus entirely on people and portrait photography in 2003. In addition to successful commercial work in the film and advertising industries, Marco’s work appears regularly in magazines like TIME, GQ, Vogue, Esquire, The New York Times Magazine, Wired, and New York Magazine. His work has earned him numerous awards throughout his career, including an Emmy Award and a prestigious Hasselblad Masters Award in 2007. Mr. Grob lives in New York, but follows his work around the world.
Latitude Zero is the culmination of a 25,000-mile odyssey that begins at the mouth of the Amazon River, moving in a westward direction, documenting the precious pact between humanity and nature within one degree north and south of latitude zero through Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, the Republic of Kiribati, the Republic of Nauru, Indonesia, the Maldives, Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Republic of Congo, Gabon, and Sao Tome e Principe.
No itinerary or agenda was necessary. The purpose of Latitude Zero was to be as visually playful and uninhibited as possible, to simply be authentic and document life with a capital L. Any point within the equatorial zone was fair game, unless geography (Manaus) or politics (Mogadishu) dictated otherwise. And imagine a meal of beans and rice deep in southern Colombia’s rainforest with the FARC guerrillas, or eating turtles laced with honey with the Congolese pygmies, or dining in a loud testosterone-driven petrol platform cafeteria off Gabon’s Atlantic coast!
The work of the Swiss-American photojournalist, Monique Stauder has been published in TIME, the New York Times, Christian Science Monitor, GEO and Mother Jones, among others. She has travelled from the camps of Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanka to the island nation of East Timor, and from the Balkans to the Nuba Mountains in Sudan on behalf of international humanitarian NGOs and countless editorial publications. Stauder has master’s degrees in international relations and history.
British photographer Rankin commemorates his finest work through his largest retrospective book to date – MORE.
As one of the most compelling celebrity and portraiture photographers of our generation, Rankin brings a charged vitality to all the subjects he portrays. A new in-depth retrospective book, MORE is a comprehensive overview, documenting the photographer’s most individual and best work from the worlds of fashion, music, and media from the past 20 years.
Organised by themes, including nudes, portraits (featuring iconic personalities such as Tom Hardy, The Rolling Stones, and Emma Watson), beauty, fashion, and myths (a collaboration with artist Damien Hirst showing a contemporary portrayal of ancient mythical monsters), MORE is a rich, diverse, and revealing collection of photography.
Upon reflection of MORE, Rankin says, “If you look at my work and compare it to others, it’s a little uncomfortable, a bit strange, and a bit challenging.…I think my pictures are anti-celebrity—get them off the pedestal, get them face-to-face.…If you look at the work, it’s leveling.”
Through this philosophy, Rankin manages to make us see familiar faces such as Heidi Klum and Beth Ditto in fresh and challenging ways. “Some photographers poke and antagonize, some are really silent, some are demanding…I’m persuasive” says Rankin.
Never content with the status quo, Rankin constantly innovates through pioneering projects, such as the project ALIVE: In The Face Of Death and his current publishing venture, HUNGER magazine. Although a master of carefully constructed staging and composition, Rankin’s images are always packed to the brim with freshness and spontaneity.
With a foreword by William Boyd and an in-depth interview between Michael Holden and Rankin, MORE is indispensable for anyone who admires the work of this photographic master. For those wanting even more of MORE, also available are 100 Collector’s Editions of the book with the title hand-written on the jacket by Rankin himself, presented in a refined clamshell box with a numbered photoprint.
British novelist and author of MORE’s foreword, William Boyd, reveals: “There are wonderful portraits in this book, world-class, in my opinion, where we see that Rankin has managed to garner something new about even the most familiar faces.”
