Bristol and Somerset Wedding Photographer
Specialising in photographing couples who want to be in control of their wedding and don’t like being posed, helping them feel relaxed with natural storytelling so they look their absolute best in every photo.
I’m not the same as other wedding photographers….
With a zest for life and a knack for making people feel at ease, I often find myself laughing and celebrating alongside my couples and their guests. By the end of the night, I'm not just your photographer but a friend, sharing in the joy and capturing the essence of your celebration…
Celebrating couples who craft their own path, I document the laughter, tears, and spontaneous moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours
"Richie, we went through the pics this morning, and all I can say is WOW!
They are absolutely beautiful. We are honestly in love! They capture everything that our day was: full of love and laughter. It's incredible; it felt like we were re-living our day all over again. You are amazing! I will recommend you till the cows come home!" Jess and Scott ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
WE had a fantastic time
We had a fantastic time with Richard at our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding. It was a very laid back wedding with Rich only taking the official photos that Emma And Dan wanted. The rest was left up to Rich capturing loving and special photos. Can't wait to see the finished album.
Taster photos are fantastic. X x
Rich also did the Engagement photos these were beautiful. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

kind words
“Richard stepped in for our photographer who was ill for our wedding and he was brilliant. We spoke with him beforehand to go through the style of photos we wanted, he was so easy to chat to. On the day he made us feel comfortable and was able to have a laugh with all our guests making them feel at ease too. The sneak peek photo we got back that same night was perfect and really captured what we were looking for.
If you want a fun, relaxed, easy-going photographer to capture those unscripted moments then Richard is your guy!” Nat and Sharney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Years of Experience
With over seven years behind the lens, I’ve captured love stories in the UK’s most stunning spots—extravagant country houses, rustic farms, weathered barns, and wild, soulful venues. I’m all about snapping photos that feel real, raw, and totally you, bottling up your day with heart and grit. I adapt to any light or setting—golden hour in a barn or candlelit vibes in a grand estate—delivering high-quality shots for intimate dos or big bashes. Passion-driven and a bit cheeky, I turn your wedding into a gallery you’ll never tire of.
Richard saved our big day!
My wife and I had originally trusted another photographer who scammed us and without any hesitation, Richard jumped in and was fantastic from start to finish. Cannot thank this man enough for everything he has done for us on our day, an absolute gent and a friend for life! Would recommend him to anybody. Matt and Helen ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
