Another wonderful shoot with Richard, this time a whole day during my most recent tour.

We worked at a variety of beautiful locations and the weather was well and truly on our side.

I absolutely love working with Richard. He is organised and always has a plan of what he wants to achieve, his resulting images are always beautiful too! :)

Richard is lovely company during shoots, thoughtful, respectful and conversation is free-flowing and interesting.

Completely recommended! :D

I worked with Rich again, this time on my most recent "Icelandic Dreams" trip along side a large team of creatives! We had worked together many times before over the years and I consider Rich a very good friend of mine, so I was so excited when he said he wanted to sign up for an adventure! :)

We had 6 photographers, a second guest model (the sensational Pippa Doll) and an amazing Icelandic model I had booked especially for the trip (Johannsdottir) which I had kept as a surprise for later in the week, working alongside Icelandic Horses!

Plus two designers who very kindly lent their stunning designs to me for the trip! Added to this, we were staying in a luxurious Villa which was a real treat!

Its always nerve wracking organising such an event and trip, especially going into the deep end together on a week long trip, but Rich is such a gentleman to work with- extremely kind, softly spoken, very respectful and a great team player. He is a complete gentleman and I love being in his company.

It was an extremely challenging and cold trip (mentally and physically) for the models, modelling in minus temperatures on ice, snow and water- but we were very fortunate with the weather later in the week and even saw a beautiful display of the Northern lights three days running!

I really enjoyed working with Rich and could highly recommend him to all creatives. My only wish is that I had more time to natter in the evenings rather than sleep after such intense model days! :) I would love to work together again in the future!

Thank You so much for being our guest and hope to see you again soon! Helen x

I recently organised another AMAZING CHARITY STUDIO DAY at the fantastic Pozers studio with the proceeds going towards a little girls disabled chair.

The proceeds of the day reached a whopping ***£1300***, all thanks to the kind generosity of the photographers attending on the day and those that gave further donations via the Purpleport forums.

Rich was one of the photographers who very kindly bought a ticket to the event and I was so grateful!!! We had initially had a slow start and I really appreciated the support! Rich is such a lovely kind gentleman to work with, someone I consider a friend and I really enjoy his company. The photographs taken on the day were beautiful and I really appreciated his direction and input also.

We were also very lucky with the weather and able to take advantage of the beautiful woodland within the grounds for some natural light photography! Thank You for everything Rich and I really look forward to seeing you in October!

Thank You for being a major part of this charity mission to buy the little girl her chair- we made it! :)

Highly recommended to all, Helen xx

A wonderful shoot with me and my sister Luna. Rlux has beautiful concepts which he realises with ease and is highly deserved of his many photographic accolades. Highly recommended.

Had another awesome shoot with Richard. We roamed around Dartmoor and we even got to go to Wistman's woods which I have wanted to do a shoot at for a long time. Richard was totally up for a good walk to get to the best locations and brought all the equipment he could possibly need.

Richard was happy to listen to the different angles to take shots from and I think we worked very well together. We got so many great shots and I can not wait to see them.

100% recommended.

Richard and I shot on location all across Dartmoor today. Every detail was perfectly organised helping our shoot to run smoothly with everything arranged through communications, therefore I can't fault the pre comms!

He once again brought his overflowing bag of materials and we managed to capture the perfect images as I danced with the wind. Richard is full of good ideas and continues to bring them forward throughout the shoot, I really enjoyed today!

It goes without saying that Richard is a very talented photographer and a proper gentleman as well, making me feel more relaxed and calm from the get go, this of course enables the model and photographer to get those all important images!

Truly enjoyed every bit of todays shoot, and I couldn't recommend Richard highly enough.

Thankyou for an enjoyable shoot, to the next!

I had my first ever shoot with Richard today at PoZers studio, he showed up on time and with a good idea of the kind of images he'd like to achieve.

He was very polite and respectful throughout the shoot, and we had some very interesting conversations about art! Speaking of which, he is a true artist, and I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of his artistic photographic vision and I really look forward to seeing the results!

I definitely recommend Richard to other models, and I will certainly shoot with him again when I am next down this way :)

Richard and I arranged a 3 hour shoot in my home studio over bank holiday weekend! We both anticipated there may be some traffic due to this however Richard arrived on time and came fully prepared.

His bag was overflowing with fabrics as we played with bodyscape themes and ideas (which turned out amazing!) We experimented using my two person bean bag with me sinking into it with the fabrics all around me, at times I felt I was under the sea!

All pre shoot communications were fantastic as were the conversations we had on the day.

I couldn't recommend Richard enough, he is a lovely gentleman and we found ourselves getting along really quickly which just added to the overall images coming out better!

Thankyou for a brilliant shoot Richard, I look forward to our next!

Another fantastic shoot with Richard this time being at studio58 in Bristol.

I love Richards creativity that he brings to a shoot, always full of different ideas and looking to put his own edgy twist to a photograph, and they look awesome:

Always enjoy working with Richard and hope to do so again soon.

Thanks again Richard

Second shoot with Rich and I absolutely love working with him...Rich is a lovely man and I feel very comfortable around him...I found an outside location for us to shoot at and there were 4 carparks, I thought we were going to end up playing cat and mouse but I was so suprised that the exact spot I was at Rich turned up at too...we found loads of different types of backgrounds that included woods, logs, water and a little stream...we produced some really really stunning images and I cannot wait to see the edited results...we worked so well together even better than the last time...shooting with Rich runs so smoothly...I would very highly recommend Rich...

Thank you for a lovely morning Rich...

It was so lovely to see Rich again. It had been a long time since we had done a shoot together but I think we made a great team. Rich really tried some unique composition that came out really well and resulted in some awesome shots.

Rich brought some unusual lenses too for us to play around with he put so much effort into getting different and unique shots. I do hope to model for Rich again very soon :)

I’ve had the pleasure to work with Richard more than a few times on a one-to-one basis. Our latest shoot was actually a group shoot which Richard kindly organised for a group of less experienced photographers.

I’m always blown away by the incredible standard of Richard’s work. This time I also witnessed how patient, thoughtful and professional he is in a group environment. Time flew by and I was very pleased with the images the whole group captured.

Richard you’re an absolute pleasure to work with and I really look forward to the next time we get to work together! Thank you for yet another brilliant experience.

I worked with the lovely Rich again recently at my home and had SUCH a productive and creative shoot! I had recently purchased a number of wigs which really allowed for a series of different looks and themes in a short timeframe!

Rich is such a gentleman to work with and one of my favourite people. So kind, down to earth and professional. I absolutely loved the photographic results! I've known Rich for many years now and can give the highest recommendation to work with.

Thanks so much and hope to see you again very soon! Helen x

I recently had the pleasure of working with RLUX for the first time when they booked in at my 1-2-1 day at Studio58 Bristol.

Pre communication was Richard was great and on the day, they arrived on time and in good spirits. We recapped what we intended to shoot and developed on ideas as we went along! Shooting with Richard was very easy and I felt thay we bounved off eachother's creative approach very naturally.

Shooting with them flew by and they weren't very respectful, polite and gave good direction when working. They clearly gave their own style and artistic vision.

I would gladly shoot with then again and would certainly recommend them!

Thank you very much for a fab shoot!Talli 😊

Myself and my sister Luna had a wonderful time with Rich. We worked together fluently exchanging creative ideas. Rich always brings quirky artistic props and outfits and it's evident from the beautiful and artistic images he creates that he has a natural passion and talent for photography!

Another fantastic shoot with Rich and quite possibly our best yet! We braved the weather to go out to a beautiful woodland and cave filled area and got some very striking art-nude/classical shots while dodging cavers and Scout groups! I loved so many of our pictures and greatly appreciated Rich's consideration for my comfort and safety- and the amazing cake we had afterward! :D As always, I'd recommend him to all models and can't wait to work together again.

Rich came to shoot me at my studio day at pozers this weekend. It always nice when you just get along with someone strait away and have an instant rappor. I show a mixture of different things during the shoot. I loved what I saw on the BOC and cant wait o see how the images turned out. I would recommend for sure. Lovely guy, easy to talk to and fun to shoot with. What more could you want :D

Miss Diamond Sparkle 💕☯

WOW...I have been wanting to work with Rich for ages and finally got to...really worth the wait...Rich is so respectful and a true gentleman...Rich has some really good ideas and is also happy to shoot your ideas...Rich is happy to show you images from the back of the camera...Rich has an amazing lens that changes the shapes of things (was alot of giggles from us both haha). I had alot of fun with Rich and really hope I get to shoot with him again...Rich and I produced so many beautiful images ranging from portrait, fashion and nude...

Thank you Rich for a lovely day...

I worked with the lovely Rich again recently at my home in Wiltshire alongside the beautiful "DominikaW".

It was Dominika's big return to modelling after a long period of time away and so she was a little nervous but Rich was the perfect gentleman to reintroduce Dominika to modelling again!

Rich is such a kind and gentle person, extremely professional and respectful. He is also very patient, gives great direction but equally allows the models suggestions also. We took some wonderful portraits in the natural light and I really loved the results.

Rich was also so kind to collect Dominika from home at short notice and I was so grateful. A lovely kind, trustworthy person to work with.

I can't recommend Rich highly enough, he is a truly wonderful person.

Thank You so much for a lovely few hours and I really hope to see you again soon! Helen x
