Hello and Welcome

Hi, I am Victoria Hillman, I am a Wildlife Researcher, Photographer, Artist, Writer and Guide

​

Victoria studied Zoology with Marine Zoology before going on to study for an MSc in Wildlife Biology and Conservation. Nature has been a passion from an early age with photography following closely behind as a way to show people what she was seeing and studying. Over the years she has developed her scientific and photographic skills specialising in macro photography championing the smaller species we have around us and the importance of ethical photography.

​

Victoria has been a judge for international photography competitions and has contributed stills, video and articles to magazines, books and TV series including National Geographic and The BBC.

​

Victoria published her first book Forgotten Little Creatures in 2017 celebrating local wildlife through bringing together photography with scientific and historical facts and is now continuing the project and working on future books which will include artwork and folklore as well.

​

 Alongside her work on the project, Victoria has return to art creating needle felted ornaments and sculptures and pencil drawings from her own photographs as Woolley Wildlife, some of these drawings form part of the ongoing Forgotten Little Creatures Project as well as new collections launching in 2023 that will team up with research and conservation charities to raise much needle funds for them to carry on their work. 

​

Victoria does continue to work with mammals and birds and other nature and wildlife subjects, these can be viewed via her social media channels.
