Richard was super kind to book me for half a day whilst I was visiting the local area. We were stuck for a studio and I found the lovely Studio52 at super short notice!

Richards comms and emails were super prompt and despite it being a really short notice shoot, it was booked and organised very quickly. Richard is really lovely to work with and aims for quality over quantity. His use of light and direction is superb and I really enjoyed his company. I especially loved the natural light photography and shooting in the gardens.

Richard is kind, professional and highly recommended to all! I really look forward to seeing the results! Thank You for a lovely day and hope to work together again soon, Helen x

I worked with Richard recently at Pipewell hall on one of The Yerbury's workshops.

I always love working with Richard as he is always the gentleman, easy going, great company and he takes such beautiful images.

Thank you for a super day.

Worked with Richard again as he attended at workshop with the yerburys .

As usual Richard was a delight to work with , he got along with the group , had plenty of ideas and made sure that every shoot location was safe with some minor gardening ;)

He is always so attentive to the models needs and comforts with is a great trait to have .

Richard always has a great eye for phothograopy so I was very excited when I realised he was on the workshop . He is very talented and im sure his talents will just keep growing as he is a keen learner .

I worked with Richard recently at Fine and Dandee on a recent studio day and had an absolute blast! It was our first time working together so I am always a little nervous! However from the start Richard was kind, fun and professional to work with. Richard was very organised, had fantastic ideas and comms were first class, with a moodboard and ideas of what he would like to achieve on the day.

Rich was fantastic with lighting and direction and I really loved the results which Rich was extremely kind to share with me afterwards.

I would absolutely love to shoot with Rich again and can highly recommend to all. Thank You for such a lovely day and hope to work together again soon! Helen x

What a pleasure shooting with Richard was! I had the great opportunity to meet him during my studio day with Rachyy at Hangleton Studio.

Richard was very creative and made sure the light was perfect for each set to get the best picture possible, and it worked so well. Richard is a very talented photographer and the pictures from the back of the camera was great, I am very happy with what we've got, duo and solo. He's also a very nice and relaxed person to work with.

This session was very enjoyable and I am very looking forward to working with him again. Obviously recommended!

Rachyy

What a brilliant man Richard is! Talented, knowledgeable, respectful and so much fun to work with. He booked on to mine and BOou's duo day in West Sussex and bought along a few ideas with him, including ideas for lighting and poses. We worked with different props creating dance inspired shapes, and Richard was wonderful at directing us both as a duo and solo. All in al, we had a very productive 2 hours.

I would 100% work with Richard again, and would highly recommended him.

I had the incredible pleasure of welcoming Richard when I hosted a studio day with BOou and Rachyy at Hangleton Lane Studio on 9 February ... and what a day it was, made all the easier by the fact that everybody put a great deal of effort into making it a success long before the day itself, with great communications too.

Richard took the final two hours and I had the opportunity of watching BOou and Rachyy with Richard shooting balletic fine art. Richard is most definitely a photographer I'd be delighted to see here in the future. Very respectful and knows exactly what he is trying to achieve. Most definitely recommended..

I worked with the wonderful Richard at The Hacienda, Ive worked with Richard three times now and every shoot has been great!

He works really hard at the lighting to make sure its perfect whilst being very relaxed and laid back. He allows me to be creative and flow to each pose whilst making small creative suggestions every now and again.

I really love shooting with Richard and we have some got some stellar images each time, he comes highly recommended from me and I look forward to working with him again.

I worked with the fantastic Richard for the second time on a duo studio day with Scarlet Door alongside Charliee.

Richard turned up with some fantastic ideas and he worked very hard to create various lighting set ups which really flattered mine and Charliees art nude shapes!

We also covered some dance style images within our two hours.

Richard is really professional, genuine, relaxed, confident and works in a collaborative way.

He has a fantastic eye and his lighting knowledge is of a very high standard.

He comes highly recommended from me :)

I had a wonderful time shooting with Richard at the Hacienda . Id already seen glimpses of his work so I was excited to see what we could produce , and I think its safe to say that we smashed it .

Richard arrived , and he was lovely , the first thing that he did was walk around and think about the ways that he could use the space in a creative way . It was a great thing to see as many people get overwhelmed , but Richard was able to think outside of the box . Once to shoot started we soon clicked and got to know how one another worked. Richard connects really well with his models , so both parties know what of feel of image that is trying to be created , this is great to adapt posing styles . Each set was reviewed so we could see what was working , what wasn't , or what didn't tweaking . If something didn't quite work we just simply moved on making the most of our time .

Richard is very skilled at what he does , knows what he is after and knows how to work with light . I have seen some of the results and im thrilled . I would recommend Richard to any model new or experienced . A dream to work with .

well how lucky am I that I got to have another shoot with the very lovely Richard! :D As always Richard glides in - his totally relaxed and laid back manner, though somehow still full of enthusiasm and excitement for the shots about to be created!

Richard worked with me at Sanctuary studio, which to be honest was a fairly limiting studio. I worked there for 4 days and Richard did things that no one else thought to do! The shots Richard took were truly original! I love that Richard is always happy to listen to any ideas the model has also.

I'm repeating myself, but Richard is very good at using light ! VERY GOOD! He knows exactly where the model needs to be for the light to be perfect on her. The shots Richard took were pure fine art in my opinion! I loved them so much!

Can't wait for the next shoot whenever that may be! Highly recommended by me!! :D

I have had so many shoots with Richard and they just keep getting better!

Richard is a fantastic photographer but also a lovely person. He treats his models so well and is always full of praise and he gives great positive feedback while shooting which really motivates you as a model to give better back.

We shot at Guy's Cliffe on the weekend with 4 other models, and it was just a blast.

Richard got so many amazing images of all 4 of the models and I am so happy with the results.

Thank you again for another brilliant shoot.

Highly recommended.

I had my 4th/5th? shoot with Richard- this time at the recent Guys Cliffe weekend event (hosted by Nicole Rayner)

Although there isn't loads of time to shoot together on these events it was a HUGELY productive weekend full of laughs, epic images and so many awesome poses by all! You may only get half a day with all four models but my god you get your moneys worth and probably walk away with waaaay more images (with more variety) than you would on any normal half day shoot-! :)

I really enjoyed working with Richard again- he has a great eye for capturing super images and allows the model to do 'her thannng' capturing movement at just the right time!

We created some seriously epic images in a short time and I hope I can work with Richard again soon. Thank you :)

Nicole Rayner

I was very pleased that Richard booked onto my Guys Cliffe art nude event! I was pleased as I knew Richard would capture some wonderful I ages from the event and he did not disappoint!!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again-Richard’s ability to see light is amazing! He captured some really wonderful images In places which I have never shot before! Richard really works for the shots! Lying on the floor, getting in compromising places in order to capture whatever pose I pulled in the best way possible! We got some really unique shots which looked great on the back of the camera!

Richard is always terribly professional and respectful- but has great conversation and a fabulous sense of humour so shooting with him is always lots of fun!! I am beyond excited that I will be working with Richard again very soon!!

I think Richards editing is also beautiful- he really brings out each image wonderfully and his end results are images which I am always proud to be part of!

My first shoot with Richard last month was on a event organised by Nicole Rayner at Guys Cliffe. Albeit a brief session with him, I can honestly say it was one of my favourites of the 2 days. Richard is a really lovely guy, he made me feel very comfortable and at ease doing our shoot.

He came prepared with creative ideas which we together nailed and got some epic shots.

He is a very talented photographer and that shows in his work.

100% recommended and hope to work with him again,

Thank you Richard

I had my first shoot with Richard and was blown away!!!

Firstly, he’s just a lovely chap!!! Very professional and respectful but very down to earth and super easy to get in with! I really enjoyed his company!

But it gets better - because his shots were AMAZING!!! His ability to see light and where it falls is just wonderful!! His compositions were fantastic and I was truly blown away by how beautiful Richard (and the light) made me look!!

Some of the most wonderful shots I’ve ever had taken of me!! And THAT is saying something because I’ve had the pleasure of working with some truly talented photographers! But Richard A is up there with the best of them! I HIGHLY recommend him!!

And I am SO excited to be working with him again very soon!

Lovely to shoot with Richard recently at the stunning Hacienda. He was kind, considerate, professional and really creative to work with, allowing me to collaborate with him on ideas and taking some very beautiful images. I’d happily work with him again!

Another great shoot with Richard a couple of weeks ago at fine and Dandy studio. We had a super duper productive two hour shoot and got soooo many great images.

Very excited to see them and also looking forward to our next shoot in July! Thank you Richard :)

I had a fantastic shoot with Richard last week at my place.

Richard had some great ideas to work through on the day and I totally love the results we got. We played with natural light, soft focus and some Hamilton style images which I loved.

Richard is super to work with and the time flew by. Cant believe a couple of years had passed since our last shoot.

Looking forward to working with him again next month :D Thank you, Richard!
