Alison Jackson (born 1970) is an English photographer. She hit the headlines in 1999 with her lookalike photographs of celebrities in compromising positions, and went on to win a BAFTA for BBC 2's series Doubletake.
She graduated with BA (Hons) in Fine Art Sculpture from the Chelsea College of Art as an adult student, and MA in Fine Art Photography from the Royal College of Art, London.
She became notorious in Britain in 1999 for producing black-and-white photographs including images that apparently showed Princess Diana and Dodi Al-Fayed with a mixed-race love child; manyconsidered this offensive.The photos were part of her graduation series entitled Mental Images. She has gone on to produce similarly obscured photos and films of celebrity look-alikes in surprising, shocking or strange situations, portraying them, as she has described it, 'depicting our suspicions'. via
