I had a fantastic first shoot with Richard at Upper Mills studio and couldn't have been more at ease :)

Richard is a very creative guy with wonderful ideas that I couldn't wait to be a part of, I am so happy with the results!

We were spoiled for choice with Richards supply of accessories and props. it's so great to see such enthusiasm from other creatives, Richards love for what he does is apparent and shows in his fantastic results!

Hopefully not the last time I get to work with this guy! Thanks Richard for an amazing shoot :)

Very recommended to models of all abilities..

I worked with Richard at New Upper Mills studio and it was a pleasure.

He was polite and courteous and a joy to work with.

I've been a fan of Richard's work for ages so it was absolutely wonderful that we had the opportunity to work together today.

Richard's pre-shoot communication was spot-on and he was a joy to work with. Absolutely love his creativeness and enthusiasm for his photography.

We shot on the Isle of Wight on a beach, using dresses, fabric, stones, the sea and seaweed!! (Amongst other things!)

I thoroughly enjoyed Richard's company and wholeheartedly hope that we have the opportunity to work together again in the future.

Can't wait to see the results from our shoot.

Highly recommended!!! :D

I had a shoot with Richard at Helen's home in Chippenham. He arrived on time and with loads of wonderful ideas. We gelled well and I loved shooting with him. He's a great guy and loves his fabrics (and definitely knows how to use them! :) ) Really laid back photographer but at the same time we were super productive and got some fantastic shots. He bought along a book full of stunning ideas and you could just tell he was letting his imagination go nuts which is awesome to see! Really highly recommended and I would love to shoot with him again!

I worked with the lovely Rich again- this time alongside the beautiful Emma Willis just before Christmas on our duo day and had such an awesome time! Rich kindly fit in 2 hours shooting into his busy timetable, which we were so greatful for due to a cancellation.

Emma and I had a blast rolling around the floor in different sheets of fabric and creating movement for dramatic effect! :P The photos looked beautiful and it was lovely to work with another model on the project too as it gave it an extra depth and edge!

Rich is always wonderful to work with- very easy going, relaxed and a thoroughly lovely person. His photography each year goes from strength to strength and its been a joy to be a part of it. I love his company and he has become a lovely friend - highly recommended and hope to see you again soon! Helen x

I worked with the lovely Rich again at my home on a 3 hour shoot a short while back and had such a lovely relaxed shoot! Rich is the fabric king, always coming to the shoot with an array of beautiful fabrics!

I love delving into them, mix matching the colours and creating movement! Each shot is always different and unique- and often cannot be replicated!

Rich is great fun to shoot with and always listens to your ideas. Each shoot is very much a collaboration and I love working together :) Highly recommended as always, Helen x

I had the pleasure to work with Richard for the fifth time on Saturday, this time at the lovely Shutter and Flash Studio in central Bristol.

I'm in awe of Richard's talent and kind personality. I always look forward to working with him and the results are superb each time.

We tried a few different looks throughout the shoot and Richard was brilliant with providing direction, especially for the more experimental shots where we used movement and fabrics.

I couldn't recommend him highly enough. Thank you for another brilliant shoot Richard!

Richard booked a shoot with me whilst I was on my South West (Somerset) Tour and we had a splendid, super creative time! Great pre-shoot comms, Richard came armed with bundles of beautiful fabric and loads of ideas so we could create some quirky images, with great backdrops, so the images were unusual and fun! Professional, friendly and respectful, we got some cracking images. Thanks hugely, highly recommended!

Anita De Bauch

I love working with Richard. He has very interesting, artistic ideas, and it is a pleasure working with him. I was so happy with the results of our last shoot and would love to work with him again anytime. Highly recommended!

I worked with the lovely Rich again in Dartmoor, at a stunning location with the amazing Elle Beth! I was ill on the day and under the weather in general but Rich was a real sweetheart - and Elle a joy to work with!

The location was absolutely beautiful and we had such an enjoyable, relaxed day shooting against the textures of the rocks and the gorgeous landscape. Rich was very kind and bought a delicious lunch- he is such a kind and caring person to work with, so gentle and considerate. He came along with his usual prop bag of beautiful material and we achieved some beautiful headshots! Rich is definately the master of taking gorgeous portraits and every shoot with him is a real pleasure.

We were very lucky with the weather and had a beautiful day. It was also lovely to work with such an awesome model as Elle and a treat to be booked as a duo. Highly recommended and I hope we work together again soon! Helen x

Another wonderful shoot with Richard yesterday morning, we worked along the same ideas we started on our last shoot which are super fun. I love the pre raphaelite style so always enjoy shooting concepts along those lines and Richard has such enthusiasm for his work that it's always very inspiring and fun!

He's a super friendly guy and a real pleasure to work with :)

Highly, highly recommended by me!

Another great shoot with the endlessly creative Richard! Each time we work together, he has a new skill or idea to try and this time we were shooting in a nearby forest with pre-Raphaelite and fairytale inspired outfits. Pre-shoot communication was excellent, the time went in a flash and as always, I recommend Richard 100% and look forward to our next photoshoot.

Richard came to my home for a shoot today and it was an absolute pleasure! Richard is not only a highly creative photographer he is also really lovely and very easy to work with. His ideas are very artistic driven and so unique and fun, plus there were my two favourite things, colour and fabrics!!

I look forward to seeing how the final images turn out but from the back of the camera they were glorious!

Richard is a fantastic photographer and a great guy and I look forward to working with him again!

I had my second shoot with Richard last week.

Dispite the English weather, we had a fantastic location shoot and Richards positive attitude towards the wind and rain really kept me going and we got some beautiful photos.

As always Richard was very professional, creative and chatty and made sure I stayed warm and comfortable throughout the shoot.

Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of working with Richard for the fourth time, on this occasion on a two-hour 1920s-themed session at Upper Mills Studio.

As usual, Richard had a particular project he wanted to bring to life. Richard knew what was needed to complete each shot and gave direction very effectively. As always, he was polite, helpful and really supportive. Richard is exceptionally talented and dedicated to what he does - we only shot yesterday and he has already produced a few amazing edits! He kindly provided transport to the studio and I have to say I was very euphoric on the way home bacause of the wonderful day we had and the results I knew we had achieved!

I would wholeheartedly recommend Richard to other creatives and I look forward to our next shoot.
