Todd Selby is a photographer, director, artist, writer, and illustrator. His project, The Selby, presents an insider perspective of creative individuals in private spaces through the artist's keen eye for detail. The Selby started in June 2008 as a website where Todd would post photos he took for his friends. Soon, audiences from all over the world would send requests every day to showcase their homes on the website. The Selby website has a huge influence, and top companies around the world are beginning to demand cooperation. These projects include advertising campaigns and collaborations with Louis Vuitton, American Express, FENDI, Nike, Microsoft, Sony, Airbnb, Hennessy, Ikea, eBay, Heineken, as well as hosting solo shows and pop-up stores in Colette. Todd's editing projects include the monthly home column for Observer magazine, the monthly fashion column for Le Monde M magazine, and frequent contributions to Vogue, French Architectural Digest, Japanese Casa Brutus, and New York Times T magazine. In April 2017, Todd held his first personal museum exhibition at the Daelim Museum in Seoul, South Korea. His photography, illustrations, 3D models, and sculptures occupied the entire four story museum for six months.
Todd's first book "Selby by Your Side" (April 2010) focuses on the lives of creative individuals such as writers, musicians, artists, and designers at home, while his second book "Edible Selby" (October 2012) focuses on the kitchens, gardens, residences, and restaurants of the most dynamic figures in the culinary world. The third book in the "Selby" series, "The Fashionable Selby" (March 2014), explores the ever-changing world of fashion, introducing designers, stylists, clothing suppliers, models, shoemakers, and more.
Before working for The Selby, Todd worked as a translator and tour guide for the International Brotherhood of Mechanical Engineers, a strawberry industry researcher in California, a Costa Rican cartographer, a political corruption consultant for a Mexican senator, an art director for a venture capital firm, a wholesaler of exotic flowers, a Japanese fashion designer, and an earthworm compost entrepreneur. Todd's leisure activities include going to the airport, having four meals a day, and damaging his computer.
