Portrait Photography

I have expanded the portraiture side to my business since working with my partner Katja, who is an entrepreneur, influencer and author in the premium natural beauty space. Katja creates content both for her clients and her own holistic well-being and beauty business every week. Our work together encompasses studio portraiture, on-location, and product.

A range of styles for your requirements

I combine compositional skills with a technical mastery of lighting and a personal connection with the subject to create editorial/commercial-quality images. I work with both natural light, flash, and Elinchrom professional studio strobe lighting. I enjoy working across the full range of portraiture styles, commercial, editorial, corporate and personal.

I first began in portraiture at the corporate end, working with boutique advertising and PR agencies.

Testimonials

“Richard was great to work with when I hired him for The Big Egg Hunt. He really understood the brief and its possibilities, and brought some great ideas for the images which really made the most of the character across the range of eggs we used for the shoot. The media loved the images and we were very happy with the extensive editorial coverage that we received.”
