Autumn De Wilde was born October 21, 1970 Her father, Jerry de Wilde, is an art and commercial photographer noted for his photos of Jimmy Hendrix and other pop icons. Autumn de Wilde had no formal education in photography, but learned photography from her father


She has photos for the covers of The White Stripes, Beck and many other stars. Her photos were seen on Los Angeles Times, The Rolling Stone Magazine and The New York Time Magazine. In 2011, her work was extensively featured in the Limited Edition Deluxe Box version of The Decemberists album The King Is Dead. The box set included a one-of-a-kind Polaroid photograph by Autumn from the Impossible Project/Decemberists series, as well as a 72-page hardcover book featuring over 250 unique Polaroid photographs by Autumn and illustrations by Carson Ellis.


Jack and Meg are ready for their close-up, 2008 – Autumn De Wilde

"Beck was the one who told me I should stop saying I wasn't really a photographer," A handful of photos were taken during breakfast the morning after de Wilde, met Smith, the late musician. It was the mid-'90s, the pair had been up most of the night drinking and talking, and de Wilde grabbed her Camera.

She is a quintessential hip photographer. Her compositions look staged and vintage quality. Her subject matter is cool and definitely not news. Her images have commercial appear and the story told is shallow, of the moment. I like the vintage style of her photos of generation 90’s fashion seekers before life got serious.
