Alasdair McLellan is one of the leading fashion photographers of his generation. Joining i-D after depicting club culture in Leeds in the late 90s, Alasdair is a regular and valued contributor for the magazine. Born in 1974, Alasdair bought his first camera aged 13 and was inspired to pursue a career in photography when he began taking pictures of friends as a teenager, going on to study photography in Nottingham. After moving to London, his work caught the attention of stylist Simon Foxton, who commissioned his first shoot for i-D. With a distinctly British sensibility that informs i-D’s current visual identity, his memorable portraits of Morrissey and cover story with Lily Allen bear witness to this wit and style. A regular contributor to Vogue, L’Uomo Vogue and Self Service, Alasdair has also worked on advertising campaigns for Aquascutum, Emporio Armani, Alexander McQueen and Topman. Alasdair believes that photography should be personal and loves the possibility of creating any kind of world through its medium.
