AMELIA FURLONG | WRITER + PHOTOGRAPHER
Amelia Furlong (she/her) is a writer, photographer, multi-media artist, and zine maker based in Lisbon, Portugal. She received her BA in Creative Writing from Middlebury College and her MA in Writing from the University of Galway. Her essays, fiction, and poetry have appeared in publications in the United States, Ireland, and Portugal. Her debut dark academia romance novel is forthcoming in 2027 from HarperCollins UK. She is represented by Salma Begum at Greyhound Literary Agency.
​
A romance novelist and literary writer, Amelia's work explores the tension between fantasy and reality, especially in long-term relationships. She is also interested in urban exploration and psychogeography, and her current projects use walking as a methodology to map the city as a space of play, connection, and capitalist disruption.
As a photographer, Amelia's work is primarily in fine art nudes, erotic portraiture, and self-portraiture. Her current projects explore how gender, aging, kink, and nontraditional family structures intersect to create complex relationships with the body, therefore she often incorporates movement as a means of capturing the liminality of shifting identities. ​
Amelia's photo book Boys in White Dresses was featured at the 13th Annual Lisbon Photo Book Fair in 2023, and her work was exhibited in Oitava Casa's Vulnerabilidade Masculina in May 2024.
