Abbie Jennings East Yorkshire, United Kingdom
Abbie is an award winning freelance Photographer, Curator and Creative Producer based in Hull, UK. She holds a first class degree in Photography and an MA in Art Gallery and Museum Studies.
As a freelancer, I hold many different roles within arts and culture. I sit somewhere between being an Artist and a Curator.
As a Photographer I love documenting people and places and bringing projects to life with colourful imagery. I work with lots of regular clients and organisations around the country to capture a wide range of arts and culture; I'm usually found in a live music venue, museum or festival field. I'm currently working towards a more arts-based photographic practice by dedicating more time to personal work.
As a Curator and Creative Producer I work with museums and arts organisations to help bring digital and creative projects to life. I have worked on several notable Heritage Lottery and Arts Council funded projects.
I have completed degrees in BA Photography and MA Art Gallery & Museum Studies. I’m always on the look out for new opportunities and projects to get involved with, please do check out my website for more information. My full creative CV is available upon request.
