Elisa Miller Studio

Elisa Miller Studio Elisa Miller is an award-winning French photographer based in London, specialising in fine art.

Elisa Miller is an award-winning French photographer based in London, UK. Elisa tells visual stories using a vintage and colourful aesthetic to explore questions of identity, self-perception, and the representation of women. Her work delves into the impact of societal pressure on women and the images that lie beneath the surface, using light and elaborate settings to explore the female psyche thro

ugh a cinematic lens. Originally from Paris, Elisa’s creative journey began with a paintbrush in hand during her teenage years. It was during her work at a videotape rental shop that her passion for cinema took root, shaping her artistic vision and infusing her style with a cinematic allure. Before finding her calling as a photographer, she ventured into the world of fashion, making waves as a model for retro brands and classic car magazines. However, it wasn’t until 2018 that this self-taught artist took the plunge into photography, embarking on a journey of exploration and self-discovery. She has received numerous prestigious awards, including “Photographer of the Year” at the Julia Margaret Cameron Awards in 2023, “Fine art photographer of the year” at PX3 Prix de la Photography Paris in 2022, “People Photographer of the Year” at the International Photography Awards in 2021, and was shortlisted at the British Photography Awards and Aesthetica Art Prize. Her work has been published widely in the press, including Lens Magazine, Aesthetica, All About Photo, Dodho and Life Framer, and shown at collective exhibitions in London, Paris, Milan, Budapest and Tokyo.

"44"

It feels like a number that closes something. A loop. A door I chose to keep shut.

At 44, I can’t help but think about my mother at the same age, when I left home. Seeing it from where I am now changes things. I try to imagine her life, her situation. Would I have done better, or worst?

I made different choices. Childfree. Very independent, maybe too much by society’s standards. Family has never felt natural to me.

This series came at the right time. It made me reflect on that mother–daughter relationship, even if it’s been cut off, even if it doesn’t really exist anymore.

Because we don’t start from nothing. We carry things that were never really ours to begin with.

"Lingering" - 2026 - from my series Black Dove (cropped for instagram)

A black dove often symbolises transformation through darkness, grief, or endings, contrasting the traditional white dove's peace. It's a call to inner exploration, facing shadow aspects, and finding wisdom in loss or quiet depths.

This work speaks to the grief of separation and the quiet power and necessity of choosing oneself.

"The Keeper of Wings" - 2026 - from my series Black Dove

A black dove often symbolises transformation through darkness, grief, or endings, contrasting the traditional white dove's peace. It's a call to inner exploration, facing shadow aspects, and finding wisdom in loss or quiet depths.

I titled this series after the eponymous song by Tori Amos.

This series is one of my most intimate to date. A very personal take on Rapunzel. It speaks about the relationship with my mother, from whom I've been estranged since I leaving home at 20 (and with the rest of my family actually).

This work speaks to the grief of separation and the quiet power and necessity of choosing oneself.

"Manifesto" - 2026

There once was a braid: long, golden, and heavy with meaning. It tethered two figures together: one above, one below. A mother and a daughter. Love and pain often share the same thread.

The Black Dove series reflect on the moment that bond is cut. Not by the keeper, but by the girl herself. The cost of freedom is real: silence, solitude, exile. But also, space to breathe. Space to become.

Using symbolic language and visual metaphor, this work speaks to the grief of separation, the untold stories of daughters, and the quiet power and necessity of choosing oneself.

"Last Night I Had a Dream About You" - 2026

NEW WORK - From my new series GO ASK ALICE
Chapter 3: Black Dove - 2026

I am excited to start revealing a new chapter of my series!

Go Ask Alice is a photographic series that draws on the imagery of classic fairy tales to explore the inheritance of family trauma and its imprint on identity.

Using Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Bluebeard as symbolic starting points, the work examines how patterns, fears, and unspoken wounds from childhood are carried forward, shaping the ways we relate to ourselves and others.

The figures embody danger rather than encounter it externally. Innocence, threat, and self-awareness collapse into a single presence.

Each chapter captures a threshold moment, where the subject moves from passive observation to an emerging participant in her own narrative, negotiating inherited patterns and the echoes of past trauma.

The series reflects on how the silent legacies of family history quietly shape adulthood, questioning where agency begins once the weight of inherited experience is present.

This body of work continues my ongoing exploration of identity and societal conditioning, moving from the adult façades examined in earlier series toward the deeper origins that lie beneath.

It is an attempt to ask whether we are truly free to choose who we become, or whether the path is already paved long before we realise we are walking it.
