Biography
Vicki graduated in 1993 from Oxford Brookes University
with a B.A. Honours degree in Visual Studies and Cartography.
She has always been interested in photography but it
was during her degree that her passion for photography
as a medium developed. After graduating she dabbled
in various different jobs, mostly working with people
with disabilities.
In 1998, she left Oxford to see more of the world,
living, working and traveling in Australia for 8 months
and visiting New Zealand, Indonesia, Nepal and Thailand.
Exploring these different countries with their abundance
of amazing light and landscapes, plants and culture,
rekindled her passion for photography and made
her realise that she wanted to pursue a career in it.
Since returning to this country in 2000, she returned to the West Country to live and worked part
time with people with disabilities and the elderly,
using her spare time to further my photography.
She is now pursuing photography as well as being Mum to daughters' Amber and Leila, chief walker to their very elderly and nearly senile dog Frodo and (last but not least!) wife and business partner to busy husband, Jim! |
