Relaxed, effortless photography
For everyone who says, "We are not photo people"
Based In South Wales
Over 16 years photographing hundreds of weddings across South Wales & the UK
My style is relaxed, natural, and largely unposed, but behind that easygoing approach is the confidence that comes from photographing hundreds of wedding days.
I know when to step in, when to step back, and how to stay calm when plans change (Which they inevitably do), so you can enjoy your day knowing it’s being documented properly, without awkward posing or rushing.
Hi I'm Rich
I’m a South Wales wedding photographer, I’m originally from Cardiff, but I now live in a small village in the Welsh valleys, with my wife, two kids, a small yappy type dog affectionately known as “The Hound”, our black cat Leo & I have been photographing weddings & families having fun for 16 years.
I’M A BIT OF A GEEK
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me trying (not always successfully) to resist another slice of cake, out for a walk with “The Hound,” or attempting to convince my kids that the original Star Wars trilogy is still the greatest.
My approach is informal, relaxed and fun, perfect for couples who feel a little awkward in front of the camera, want a laid-back wedding day, and aren’t big on tradition but still want incredible photos that capture them and their day authentically.

FROM MY COUPLES
Amy & Oliver - Lakeside
Richard was just amazing.
He was so easy to be around, made us feel super relaxed, and guided us into easy and natural poses that didn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable, as we didn’t know what we were doing.
He has captured some of the best memories of the day into perfect pictures we will treasure forever!
Hannah & Joel - Gileston Manor
Are you even having a wedding if Rich isn’t your photographer!!?
The man is an absolute LEGEND and an extremely talented photographer!
We first met Rich at our friend’s wedding, and we instantly clicked with him. He made us feel at ease and it was genuinely like speaking to someone we had known our entire lives.
If you haven’t already booked Rich for your wedding day you won’t regret it!
Becky & Dan - Fairyhill
Absolutely loved having Rich taking photos, and generally being a legend, for our wedding day at Fairyhill. Super chill, totally got our nerdy vibe, and somehow managed to keep our wild bunch organised with a smile!
The photos turned out amazing – fun, candid, and full of personality. Genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better photographer so can 100% recommend
If wedding photography were Lego, he would be a Master Builder!!!
Thanks so much.
