Another lovely shoot with Richard, we mostly covered figure nude and boudoir/lingerie themes. As always he had a definite plan in mind for what he wanted to achieve, we work together well, both putting ideas into the hat and sometimes a mix of both! Looking forward to seeing the results.

I've worked with Richard many times in the past and again more recently. The shoot went really well as communication was good and Richard was able to direct well. He is great to work with and I have no hesitation in recommending him highly to other models.

I had the pleasure to work with Richard at Keranda studio. He was very well prepared, brought a lot of props that we used to create some sensual photos.

Richard was easy to work with, very professional, and I enjoyed our shoot because he gave me directions which helped a lot.

I’m pleased with the pictures we got, and I hope I’ll get the chance to work with Richard in the future.

Highly recommended!

I had my second shoot with Richard, and it was just as wonderful as my first. He is a brilliant guy to work with. Good at being supportive and creative with his work. The communication before and after the shoot has been amazing as always. Would love to work with him on many more occasions. Would highly recommend. Thanks Richard :)

Another good shoot with Richard! We covered mostly art nude and a little bit of alternative fashion. He knows his stuff with poses and lighting and is great at getting the desired shot, he also does excellent pre-planning and communicates regularly before the shoot date. Highly recommended.

My first shoot with Richard and he put me completely at ease! We shot a mixture of topless pin up style images, some art nude and fetish.

Richards communication was fantastic throughout, giving direction if he needed it and still allowing me my creative freedom. I love our Bettie Page style images and can't wait to see what he has done with the others.

Total gent! Highly recommend!

This was my 3rd shoot with Richard, he came well prepared with a mood board folder as usual and we covered various themes from 50s pin up to classic art nude, as well as my own sailor lolita theme idea to give a twist to the cheeky pin up style! He is a relaxed and friendly sort of chap, who knows what he wants to achieve pose wise in his shots and can direct gently when needed. Definitely recommend him!

Had my second shoot with Richard, we did GG themes this time around and he had planned it all from start to finish. We covered various themes including a particularly cool girly sleepover set, with me as the innocent one (believe it or not!) Richard is a skilled tog, knows what he wants to achieve and works efficiently. Definitely recommended.

Had a great shoot today with Richard, he is a really laid back sort of chap, knows what he wants to achieve in his shots and directs well when wanting a specific shot. We are hoping to shoot again soon!

I have worked with Richard several times at Keranda Studio. He is great to work with, friendly and gives good direction.

Another enjoyable shoot. Would recommend.

I was delighted to meet Richard today who had bravely signed up for a shoot with myself and the lovely JadeStacyMaria although he probably didnt realise he was brave at the time....

We were working at an abandoned raf base which required shall we say, careful entry! Richard -thankfully- was willing to climb crawl and slide through not the easiest of entry points to gain access to the two venues we visited.

A gentleman for sure, Richard was a great team player, patiently taking turns and more than a few times I saw him waiting quietly for his turn. I always make a point of making sure photographers as such get their 'time' with the models.

Wisely Richard brought a tripod along, most necessary for the low light in a lot of areas and it was lovely to see someone 'shooting from the hip'

A keen eye spotting opportune backdrops, he wasnt afraid to say 'quick over here' lol and from what I saw back of camera he took some cracking photo's!

It was a delight to meet you, thank you kindly for booking on and I hope I have the pleasure of working with you again in the future.

Kindest Regards

Paige

Had an amazing first shoot with Richard after he had applied to my urbex casting showing his interest!

Communications were brilliant and he arrived dead on time eager and prepared to shoot! We hopped in with another photographer and drove straight to the venue!

This was not your ordinary shoot so Richard was faced with such challenges including climbing, barbed wire and scaling through small gaps! The frustration never showed and he took it all in his stride and remained positive through ought the whole day!

Richard knows exactly what he wants from a shot and is great at giving direction! As well as this he was the only photographer to bring a tripod which in my eyes is a winner as you are able to capture tack sharp photos and produce some cool compositions!

Richard is a lovely man, super friendly, very courteous and a pleasure to be around! He was also kind enough to show us previews of the shots he got and I cannot wait to see the final results!

Thank you for a great shoot Richard, and I hope to work with you again soon :)

Honoured to be your first model recommendation. :)

Richard is an absolutely lovely photographer who you instantly become comfortable with, he was kind enough to book me on one of my studio days at Keranda, arrived on time and eager to start.

So happy he finally made an account on Purpleport as he is very talented and I couldn't wait to see the images we created together.

I do hope our paths cross again.

Highly recommend!!

I have known Richard more years than either of us would care to remember, some time in fact before I opened Keranda Studio in 1997.

Since studio opening Richard has been a regular and very welcomed visitor. Over 20 years has never cancelled a booking, his bookings are always well thought out in striving to produce original themes.

Richard has always proved to be very popular with every model who has booked to shoot with him.

Is always appreciative and respectful to both models and studio facilities.

Thank you for your support over the years Richard.

Always welcome.
