Richard is one of my favourite photographers/people. He's just so cool and easy to get along with and having him around puts me at ease. His talent is obvious, not only a master of light but an exceptional videographer as evident by the incredible talents he's worked with throughout his career. I will absolutely without doubt shoot with him again.

Had a great shoot with Richard for Diana's website we got a variety of pictures some at Diana's house and then on location, Richard is such a nice guy he is an amazing photographer really easy going to work with. It was a great day with everyone and I would love to shoot with him again. I would highly recommend Richard! :)

I had the privilege of working with Richard for a second shoot on location. It was a short notice shoot which he offered his availability for and was selected among many other togs who sent me a message.

Arriving on time and fully prepared with all equipment, he patiently waited for MUA to finish and then scouted for areas we could access for shooting based on the final make up look.

Richard has a great eye for composition and is very skilled in camera, but his incredible re-touching talents came to great use post-shoot due to the theme. He kindly processed and sent high-res and low-res images very promptly, within 24 hours of shooting, for both portfolio and social media use.

I would highly recommend Richard and keeping fingers crossed for our magazine submission.

Hopefully we can work together again in the near future and he's such a great photographer and person, making a shoot very relaxed and enjoyable.

I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Richard back in June when I did makeup for my first professional shoot .

Richard made everything run so smoothly and his pictures were absolutely beautiful .

After we had a hicup with a model Richard quickly found a replacement so the shoot could go ahead.

Amazing photographer , highly recommended

I had a shoot today at my home with Richard! He arrived with all his equipment and ready to shoot. He had an idea of the images he wanted to create which is always refreshing to work from a plan, and to target a specific look. Richard is very friendly, professional and a great photographer! Can't wait to see the images and to shoot again soon! :)

Highly recommended!!

I've just come back from a photo shoot with Richard,

This was actually my very first PP Photoshoot,

So wasn't sure what to 100% expect.

Richard was really lovely from when I applied for the casting through to just leaving the photo shoot itself. He gave clear direction, I felt comfortable all the way through the shoot.

it way a really enjoyable experience.

I can't wait to see the images :-)

I would love to work with Richard again.

This was my first time shooting with Richard. He was really relaxed and a good laugh. He was very accommodating and picked me up from my location. Can't wait to see the final images:)

I had a short but great shoot with Rich yesterday. He quickly scouted out my suggested location and immediately found us somewhere awesome to shoot.

He was helpful and polite throughout the shoot and directs well when needed.

He got me a full set of edited images by the evening. Highly recommended! Would definitely work with him again :)

I had the most epic shoot with Richard today after months in the making, I'm actually writing this from the service station en route home as I simply couldn't wait :)

Richard is a awesomely nice guy completely professional and extremely thorough.

We had bounced ideas back and forth for a while and Richard was really on board with my idea throwing himself into it 110%.

Richard found the most amazing stately home location and even sourced costumes from one of the most talented designers i have seen.

Communications were fantastic with Richard keeping in touch throughout my long car journey making sure I was ok and making sure I didn't rush.

Richard is really really talented, he works quickly and efficiently exactly how i enjoy shooting, he gives good tips and pointers and answered any questions I had.

This shoot was definitely worth waiting for and I hope Richard will work with me again on some of the crazy concepts i have in the pipeline :) xx

Richard is by far one of the nicest and best professional photographers I have had the pleasure to work with. We've worked on various shoots, collaborations, ideas and so much more over the years and he is always my go to guy for everything! The friendliest, most down to earth guy I have worked with. He is extremely hard working, creative, enthusiastic and fun! Has no idea how good his work really is. A true pleasure always.

Richard is absolutely one of my favourite photographers to work with; he's super professional but is a genuinely lovely guy who can get the best out of every model. He's great at putting you at ease and comes to the shoot with plenty of ideas, but is also versatile enough to listen to models' wishes and opinions. I love every single shot we created together and can't wait to work with him again!

My first shoot with Richard I travelled to his well equipped home studio to shoot a latex outfit for catalyst latex.

Richard is everything you want from a photographer and I'm blown away by the images we created together, hope to work with each other again soon!

p.s. he also let me use his shower as mine was broken due to the handyman!

It worked with Richard about a week ago at Jake hicks's photography workshop, Richard came in very polite and chatty, great with communication and direction..

He didn't get too scared by my weird poses and crazy pink wig, great sense of humour and great positivity throughout the day

Modelling for him was fun, and the shots he took blew me away! He is so talented and the rest of his work is just wow too!

A must work with

And I'm excited to model for him again

Highly recommended without a doubt !! 🙌🏻

Worked with Richard for the first time on a Bollywood shoot recently, really friendly and great fun to work with. Received the images today and they are beautifully shot, really pleased with them! Would love to work with him again - highly recommend.

I had a shoot with Richard on Monday and it was amazing!!!! We only shot for 2 hours but too a few different locations and what I believe to be some great shots!!!! Rich is such a professional he is so kind hearted and really understanding! He really knows how to get the best for on his models but was great at letting me get my own ideas into the mix. I styled the shoot myself but feel the wow factor will most definitely come from the photography and editing skills!!!! This man is amazing! I would highly recommend to everyone

I had the opportunity to assist Richard on a shoot today in Hampstead Heath. Pre-shoot comms were excellent and Richard arrived on time and provided me with a run-down of his plans for the shoot. He also took time to run through his equipment and, throughout the shoot, offered advice and tips on every aspect, including lighting, posing the model, composing the shot and altering settings to work with the conditions.

I had a really enjoyable day and cannot thank Richard enough for all his input. Highly recommended.
