A weekend in Oxford

We have just returned from a wonderful weekend away in Oxford visiting my boyfriends sister at her university. I hadn’t been to Oxford in years so I was excited to visit the city again and see his sister. It was such a sunny, but chilly, day which made Oxford look extra special. There were quite…

Portraits: Idless Woods & Crantock Beach

I’m gonna keep this blog short and sweet but I wanted to share with you one of my favourite photoshoots to date! Portraits, as I have probably mentioned before, are very new to me so I decided to ask my friend if she would model for me so I could practice. This was especially helpful as…

A Guide to Cornwall – My favourite Location

Everybody has their own ‘go – to’  place when the sun is shining and you don’t have to work (well I do anyway). For me mine is Bedruthan Steps. If you follow me on my socials (@abigailhobbsphotography on Instagram/Facebook – cheeky self plug) then you will know that Bedruthan Steps is where you will find…

Interior Photography – Stepping out of my comfort zone!

It doesn’t matter what job we have, there is always some aspect of the role that we are slightly scared to approach! I have and always will be interested in photographing the outdoors however I am having to be realistic and to earn money from my photography I have to offer proper services that I…

Storm Callum – Porthleven

It was only a matter of time until winter began to close in on the UK. Besides, we had been pretty spoilt with the summer this year, especially in Cornwall. Storm Callum had been on the radar from the beginning of the week and after hibernating away from it as it began to wreak havoc…

Treasure Trails – Porthcurno

Treasure trails have been a firm favourite of mine for the past couple of years ever since my boyfriend introduced me to them when we met. It is such a brilliant concept – you put your postcode in online and it lists all the treasure trails in your area. Pick one, purchase, print and go!…

Equestrian Photography with EMD Eventing

On the last weekend of September I had the privilege of being able to photograph by friend/colleague alongside her beautiful horse Lola. We had been planning on doing the photoshoot for ages and ages but both having busy schedules it didn’t happen for a while. Eventually we managed to set a date and we headed…

New Forest

For the past 10 days I have been back up country spending time with family and friends in Hampshire. Yesterday happened to be my mums birthday and so we spent the day in the New Forest with her, my stepdad, my boyfriend and our family dog, Alfie. I hadn’t been there in years! The last…

The Cornish Larder

Cornwall is a wonderful place to live but opportunities within the creative industry I personally find quite challenging. Every time I look on job sites I see the PERFECT job being advertised…the issue? It’s hours away. Wildlife photography has always and will continue to always be my passion but financially I have to look at…

A trip to Fowey

I recently became a tour guide in Cornwall for a week whilst my family were down for my graduation. I tell you what, you think you know loads of places for when people come and visit however you soon realise you basically spend your time going to the same places?! Seems pretty sad considering I…
