Allie Crewe, is a recipient of the Portrait of Britain awards in 2019 and 2023 by the British Journal of Photography.
She holds a BA and a Master of Fine Arts in Photography.
Her recent portraits have been featured in The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Observer, Vogue, and BBC News. LensCulture praised her work, saying:
"These images have a lot of heart and empathy; they offer detail and a real sense of actual relationships. I feel like these images are, in some sense, an account of love and are timeless in that sense. They do not judge; in fact, they celebrate in a gentle and accommodating way."
Allie believes that a portrait should reach beyond the surface to be truly poignant, and reveal a tender beauty. To her, photography is a poetic force that weaves stories with a touch of magic, aiming to unveil the inner landscapes of those she works with.
"Highly rated, sincere, poignant, and classical." — Magnum Photo
Her work is held in private collections, and she welcomes commissions.
