Richard is awesome :) I had a great shoot with him. He made me feel very relaxed throughout the shoot and we just worked at our own pace. He knew exactly what he wanted from the shoot with me and we went through about 5 'outfit' changes. I do not do a lot of clothed work but Richard made me feel really confident doing this.

We went through each set at a time so I could pick which photos I wanted which I think is a great idea and more photographers should be doing this. He is a really friendly and a brilliant photographer. He already had all the lights set up for when I got there and we got so many shots that we loved. Can not wait to get them and put them up on my portfolio. I do hope we will get to work together again. Absolutely recommended by me :)

What can I say about Riccardo?

Well he makes a gorgeous cuppa to your exact specifications so if you're a coffee lover and you do get the opportunity to work with him then you are in for a treat.... Oh right yeah, he takes good pictures to and he is a lovely chap I found him to be very easy to work with... I had fun working with Riccardo I would do it all again if he'll have me back!

Comes highly recommended!

Thank you :-D

I had a great shoot with Richard yesterday. Made me comfortable from the start and had some great ideas and concepts for us to work with. Gave good direction where needed and feedback throughout and it was a great help getting to sit down and look through images from each set throughout the shoot. It looks like we came up with some fantastic shots and it's going to be hard to narrow them down! Hope to shoot again some time in the future. Many thanks. Rebecca

Today I had my first shoot with Richard at the Mansuel house in Taunton. The location was gorgeous and I couldn't have asked for a better day! Richard was lovely to work with, a true artist, with a keen and creative eye. The day was long but the time flew by as we experimented with natural light from beautiful windows, played with wardrobe to add a unique twist to the usual, and explored the labyrinth of antiquated rooms in the mansion, eyeing up possibilities for the perfect shot. I've already seen some of the results and I am very excited to add our work to my portfolio. I'd recommend Richard to any model and I hope that I can work with him again in the future.

Thanks for the lovely day!

I loved working with Richard and Natalie (MUA)! It was such a calm, relaxed atmosphere and loads of fun (magic roundabout and postman pat is all that needs to be said!) I will definitely be working with Rich again and recommend him highly!!

Worked with Richard for the first time on Monday. He picked me and the model up from the train station and he made the shoot very relaxed and fun. We got lots of great pictures in the space of time we had in the studio. Hope to work with him again in the near future. Recommended!

When I started modelling Richard and I spent a great deal of time chatting to each other, Richard took me away to a beautiful lodge in the middle of nowhere (I lived to tell the tale and leave a positive reference so I can safely say he didn't kill me).

Richard is great to work with and spend time with, we worked on a range of different looks and settings inside the lodge itself and out on location.

He is a great bloke to shoot with, very respectful of the models well being and its a trip I will always look back on when I think about the great things I've experienced during modelling.

So yes - highly recommended - super photographer and person :D

I spent the weekend with Riccardo shooting. He is a very lovely, chatty and easy going photographer.

I really enjoyed working with him & already pleased with the previews of the work we have done already... I can't wait to see the end results from the weekend.

Highly recommended.

I had a super shoot with Riccardo in his studio in chesterfield. It was absolutely amazing! We went through a series of images, checked them out on the laptop, sipped coffee and took even more fabulous images. Riccardo is very caring, he always checked i was warm enough, didn't tire out and even shared some the images with me-which was greatly appreciated as i flippin' love 'em! Most highly recommended, great guy, wonderful shoot and so much more planned for the future!

Had the great pleasure of working with Richard for the second time and it was amazing. My first shoot with Richard was amazing and moved my portfolio on a level and we the second shoot is no different. The images blew me away and i love the images me and Richard produce as they seem to start off a new look for me. Richard is one of my favourite photographers to work with as we get on so well and our images speak for themselves how awesome Richard is :) xx

Did some makeup work for Riccardo on a TF shoot with Roks-Ann Roschana about a month ago. Had a fantastic day shooting with him and Roks-Ann. He provided plenty of cups of tea and great chatter throughout the day! We went through all of the photographs after shooting and picked out the favourites for the model, Riccardo and for myself. Riccardo then edited all of the images we picked out on the day and sent them to us in an amazingly short amount of time. Thoroughly impressed and would love to work with him again in the future. :)

Had an absolutely awesome shoot with Richard yesterday. We'd waited around 18mths to finally get together, and it was definitely worth the wait. Richard has a natural ability to put you at ease from the very first minutes of meeting. He's very easy to get along with, friendly, accommodating, and makes a cracking cuppa.......oh, and he's also not so bad with a camera too ;-P. We did around 4/5 sets, and each set produced some fantastic images. Really looking forward to seeing the finished images, and definitely looking forward to shooting with Richard again in the summer for some location work. Thank you for a very productive, enjoyable and awesome day.

Very very highly recommended :-))

I met Riccardo and shot with him for the first time this weekend. I had a great day with him shooting various ideas we had. Pre-shoot communication was excellent, tea was forthcoming and I really had fun not only working with him but chatting and getting to know him too. We sat down and looked through the images after each set, tagging the ones we liked the best. I am extremely pleased with the results so far. He is a lovely man and a great photographer - I would not hesitate to work with him again! Now for the drive home.....

I have worked with Richard several times and each time is a joy. I first met Richard at Saracen House in MK and we have always produced great results. He is a lovely man, comes with lots of ideas and a keen eye the fine details that make a perfect shot.

Couldn't recommend Richard enough! If you get the opportunity to shoot with him, don't refuse. You will love the results!

After talking for a week over this - I Worked with Riccardo on Sat and we shot most of the day, He met me and the MUA at his local train station and took us to the studio, He showed us where everything was even when the MUA asked if he had certain items he did was very impressed.. He made us tea and fed us nibbles was an amazing day and i hope to work together again soon!

Amazing Day Highly RECOMMEND!

I had a shoot with Richard a few days ago and I would definitely recommend him to any model looking for a shoot. He picked me up at the station and made me feel safe, comfortable and relaxed. He was very friendly and hospitable and made me lots of tea! We would stop after each group of shots to look at them on the computer so we constantly discussed what was working and what wasn't so we could get the best out of the shoot. I found this really helpful, especially with the lighting changes as I could see what angles and positions worked (or didn't) with each lighting change.

Highly Recommended
