Shot with Rich during my studio day at Crossroads Studio. I was welcomed instantly and totally felt at ease. Rich was professional throughout but also great fun, and i'm sure we got some amazing shots. I'd recommend rich to all models!

I had a really fabulous shoot with Rich last weekend whilst visiting Crossroads Studio.

His pre-comms where really fabulous and he gave me an idea of what he was looking to shoot along with us just going with the flow.

On the day Rich was super relaxed and methodical during the shoot, nothing was too much trouble and he allowed me to bring my own styling and ideas into the shoot also.... including allowing me to make a completely new dress out of some fabric!...

We took some really fabulous images and the shoot absolutely flew by to be honest considering it was the final shoot of the day! Rich is very kind, chatty and relaxed whilst being completely respectful!...

I would very much recommend him to other models and look forward to working with him again in the future!...

Thanks again Rich for a brilliant shoot!.... (Love some of those arty floral backgrounds!)

I am very happy with my shoot with Rich in his studio today.🤩 It was our second shoot so expectedly everything was amazing. Rich shared with me a mood board for our shoot so I had a clear idea of what we will be shooting. Rich is a very professional ,respectful, polite and easy-going photographer. Our shoot went really great as Rich is a pleasure to shoot with, and pre-communication was on spot. We we were doing some cool fashion edgy style and Rich set up amazing light which complimented my look. Overall I am very happy with my shoot with Richard and would be amazing to shoot with you again

Highly recommended,100%

I had a great first shoot with Richard at his Crossroads studio as part of my model day. As a person Richard is very kind, considerate and lovely to be around, as a studio owner and photographer he is professional and knowledgeable. He was on hand throughout the day to help with my other slots, and made sure the studio was lovely and warm for me, whilst helping out other togs with lights and kindly offering refreshments throughout the day.

When the time came for our slot, Richard wanted to experiment with gels and lighting set ups. I look forward to seeing how the photos turned out and I can recommend Richard to all models without hesitation. Thank you so much Richard, it was great to work with you one to one at your lovely studio.

I am very happy I had a chance to shoot with Richard during my studio day at his @Crossroad studio. Richard is extremely professional and easy-going photographer, who provided me the best studio day ever and our shoot was the perfect treat for me on the day,as our shoot went amazingly. Due to Richard's pleasant personality and great photography skills I had such a great time shooting with Richard. He set different lights, was very creative and eager to create something unique. Richard has an amazing studio and we used its facilities creating some fabulous shots. I really enjoyed our shoot. Thanks Richard, look forward to shooting with you again

Richard is one of my absolute favourite people and a fabulous photographer whose studio I’ve been working from for years now. Very rarely have we had the opportunity to shoot together though as our days are always very manic, so last night’s workshop was a treat! We finally got the chance ti shoot together and of course it was fabulous and fun! We worked through many great sets and Richard even got his fancy fresnel light out for those high fashion looks!

Richard is such a breeze to work with and happy to go with the flow, and of course should he have ideas to throw into the pot they’re always solid ones to shoot!

Thankyou for photographing my funny face! Fabulous as always and if you get the chance to work with Richard, do so!

Always highly recommended by me 😊

Best wishes

Had my first shoot with Rich recently and had the BEST time.

He is a lovely person, with great ideas and a lovely studio space. I felt safe and respected througout and well catered for with fancy teas!

Despite having a bit of an injury, he was rolling about on the floor to get the angles needed as I wantonly threw my limbs and various fabrics around and the shots I've seen so far are beautifully edited.

100% recommend and looking forward to working together again!

Had a shoot with Kevin he’s a lovely man.

We had a Chinese theme bridal shoot in his studio with my partner. The shoot was initially wanted to take place before covid but lockdown happened. One lockdown after another which lasted for 2-3 years and I given birth to my little baby girl. I had to take her to the shoot which wasn’t planned to and he was so considerate and understanding about it.

He’s very welcoming and professional at the same time as my partner was not experienced.

I would definitely recommend him and would always work together again.

Worked with Rich who joined me on a Christmas themed Studio day. What a delight as always.

Rich is a joy to work with, making way for a fun shoot throughout. Not only that but he has a keen eye for detail and what works well on set.

Always a pleasure :)

See you in the new year and Merry Christmas x

Had my first shoot with Richard yesterday and it was just fabulous!

It was a very fast paced day with lots of jewellery changes for the brand, and something completely different to the normal (being for nipple piercings). Even So, Rich remained completely professional, relaxed and easy to work with, throughout.

He was very polite and courteous during the shoot, making sure we were happy and comfortable, with heating, and refreshments also.

The studio space, and changing facilities are absolutely top notch for the added bonus too!

I would highly recommend him to any level model, for solo shoots and studio days. And can’t wait to work with him again

Had a portrait shoot with RickieEmm today. Loads of fun. He gave good and clear direction and made it a very enjoyable and comfortable shoot. I'd definitely work with him on any future occasion. If anyone is thinking about working with him don't hesitate to say yes😀

Morticia Avery

This was my second time shooting with Rickie and was always it was an absolute pleasure working with this sweet man!

Rickie is so down to earth with a kind heart, he will go above and beyond to achieve the best results possible, even if that means roasting himself so that the model is nice and toasty XD

Most certainly shall not be the last time working with Rickie,

Until next time x

I always enjoy working with Richard and this shoot was no exception. He has great pre-comms and will go above and beyond for the other creatives working with him.

Whenever I work with Richard I feel 100% comfortable; he is very genuine, there's always a good chat and he is open to experimenting with different styles, showing the back of the camera as we work to make sure everyone is happy.

Looking forward to working together again soon!!
