FIT Photo Talks 2025: Myles Loftin
February 4 at 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Part of the new vanguard of image makers, Myles Loftin is an artist, storyteller, and creative collaborator based in Brooklyn. Brands like Google, Calvin Klein, Netflix, Everlane, Converse, Parade, Nike, and Tommy Hilfiger commission him for ad campaigns, and publications like Vogue, Out, Paper, The Cut, Garage, i-D, Interview, and The Fader turn to him for editorials.
In 2024, he joined the faculty of the International Center of Photography. Loftin’s work sophisticated and intimate is driven by his desire to show up for underrepresented and misrepresented groups—because as queer Black man, he knows the power of visibility. Loftin was featured in the campaign “Polaroid Originals and Ryan McGinley Present the New Originals,” and he co-curated a panel for Parsons School of Design’s “Nth Degree Series,” celebrating “thinkers, visionaries, and creators who define the cutting edge.”
Forges named him one of 2020’s “30 Under 30” in the Art and Style category. His work was also featured in the exhibition The New Black Vanguard: Photography Between Art and Fashion, curated by Antwaun Sargent. In 2021, he was nominated for the Dazed 100, and in 2022 his portrait series “True Beauties,” featuring ballroom legends the House of LaBeija, was exhibited at Maison Kitsuné in Brooklyn and Paris and featured by WePresent.
