Laurie "Lol" Crawley BSC (born in Shrewsbury, Shropshire[2]) is an English cinematographer. His works include Ballast, Four Lions, and The Crimson Petal and the White.

In 2013, Crawley shot Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, which was shown at the Toronto International Film Festival[3] and has attracted critical attention[vague] for its cinematography.[4] Crawley has been inducted into the British Society of Cinematographers.[5] He has been awarded two cinematography awards at film festivals,[6] and also has been nominated for a 2014 Film Independent Spirit Award.[7]

In 2016 The Playlist profiled Crawley in their filmmakers on the rise stating that, "British DP Lol Crawley isn’t quite a brand new name — he’s been doing some remarkably impressive work in features for nearly a decade now. But of late, he’s gone from an extraordinarily impressive cinematographer to staking his claim at being one of the best in the world."[8]
