about me.
My name is Amy Astor-Lewis, & I have been a professional photographer since 2012.
Shortly after finishing my Art Foundation Diploma,
(for which I gratefully received a distinction & the Studentship Prize)
my career started, & I was asked to work for one of the University's tutors as a creative jewellery photographer.
A couple of years later I started photographing in what was one of London's most prestigious & exclusive members clubs,
The Wellington in Knightsbridge.
Here, I photographed an extensive array of shows,
including burlesque, fire, angle grinder, glitter balloon, hot wax & pole.
Since then my work has taken me to many places, including photographing high profile bands & DJ's, such as Slipknot at Alexandera Palace, & Fatman Scoop at the notorious Hip Hop Brunch.
Through my work at Hip Hop Brunch - a day time Hip Hop event - & 90's Brunch (hosted by the same founders) my work has been featured in a variety of magazines and articles, such as The Independent (as shown above), Time Out & The Metro.
My features also include:

I was also the sole photographer when Hip Hop Brunch won Best Promotions at the 2016 London Bar & Club Awards.
I have done studio work with a variety of models and talent during my work as the in-house photographer for Paperchasers Ink Tattoo Magazine, who use my work for promotion & advertising.
I have recently had my first solo photography exhibition in collaboration with MASKS the feature film.
My 'Male Colours' shoot has recently been published in Huf Magazine.
