VICKY SMITH | WRITER & PHOTOGRAPHER: TRAVEL & ARTS

Hi, I’m Vicky – a writer and photographer based in England. Travel is my main focus, though I sometimes cover arts too.

Previously an editor at a leading regional lifestyle magazine, I became freelance in 2021.

My bylines include BBC Travel, The Independent, Smithsonian Magazine and more; a selection of work can be found on the Writing and Photography pages.

I am also an experienced copywriter, editor and proofreader (scroll down for details) and a fluent Spanish speaker, with an advanced-level certificate from Salamanca University.

For commissions and enquiries, please email vicky.wordsmith@gmail.com.

SMITH BY NAME, WORDSMITH BY NATURE

I graduated from Oxford Brookes University with a Publishing Media degree (First Class Honours) and, alongside photography, have been working with words ever since. I have had many lovely comments on my clean and engaging copy, excellent eye for detail and professionalism. Journalism aside, my writing and related services include…

Copywriting
A Journalism.co.uk-trained copywriter, I have written for many brands: from e-commerce sites such as Groupon to destination marketing agencies like CT Consults and a range of art galleries, entertainment venues and restaurants.

Editing
Both within my freelance projects and former in-house editor role, I have edited a wide range of copy.

Proofreading
My proofreading assignments have spanned books and articles to commercial content.
