Through the lens and beyond, creating images

Photography with a focus on feminist and decolonial visualities. Grounded in research and produced with a commitment to processes and practices of care, co-creation and curiosity.

Behind the Lens

As an artist with a background in dance, and extensive experience globally in the areas of gender equality and social justice, I come to photography with a perspective that goes beyond the lens.

Completing my PhD in Culture Studies, I bring together my artistic, academic and activist practices together to explore visual expressions of power, love and joy.

I work with a range of clients from artists, organisations, commercial companies to individuals.

Conceptual and co-creative collaborations and shoots

I work closely with clients using co-creative processes to turn conceptual ideas into powerful images and imagery using photography and film.

Capturing key moments: Documentation of projects, events and celebrations

Whether it’s a cultural project, a corporate event or a personal celebration, I capture key moments from serious stories to smiles and laughter.

In-depth and research-based projects on cultural and social issues

Building on my artistic, activist and academic practices I bring in-depth research to photographic projects and photography to research with a specific focus on cultural and social issues.

  • “I am so thankful to Vikki for capturing me in a way I've never quite seen myself before. My photo shoot with you was evocative of many versions of myself seen in a new light, that are all honest, real, poetic, soft and edgy all at once. I've never had photos like this of myself ever. You are a gift of this life.”

  • “We shared our vision with Vikki and she delivered beyond our wildest expectations, she is incredible. We will return to shoot with her again and again.”

    Wild Within, Well-being Company

  • “I can't recommend Vikki enough! She is a bombshell of ideas, visions, creativity, originality, passion for her work. You would never feel nervous on a shoot with her, she makes you feel like you’ve been a model for years.”

    Michela Di Felice, Dancer and Performer

  • “It was such a pleasure to shoot with Vikki, the way she sees light and space, the way she has captured the authentic translation of many parts of me and delivered them whole is a big deal for me. Thank you. I'm sure we'll work together in the future again.”

    Ama Rouge, Artist

  • Working with Vikki has been absolutely wonderful from start to finish. After seeing her work I knew I wanted her to do my maternity shoot, which I was quite nervous about as I'm not comfortable in front of the camera. I am so happy at how it turned out and I will cherish the photos for life. Thank you so much!

Process

I love to work closely with photographic participants and clients to produce visual narratives and representations that express diverse experiences, stories and ideas.

Process matters to me. I give a lot of importance to ways of working and always seek to forward a feminist ethics of care in my practice whilst also producing stunning and impactful images.
