About
Hi, I'm Richard - a Cambridge-based photographer with eight years of professional experience across weddings, events, and commercial work. I cover Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, and across East Anglia, from intimate registry offices to country house estates and barn conversions.
My style is natural and documentary - I spend your day capturing real moments as they unfold, without staging or interrupting what's happening around you. But I'm not just blending into the background. When it comes to your couple portraits and family group shots, I'll guide you through it: calmly, quickly, and in a way that brings out how you actually are together rather than how you think you should look in a photo. Most people aren't comfortable in front of a camera - and they don't need to be. A few quiet prompts, the right moment, and you'll barely notice I was working.
The result is a mix of candid storytelling and relaxed portraits - the ceremony, the atmosphere, the small details, and the people that matter to you, all captured in one honest gallery.
What's included with every booking:
- Complete edited gallery delivered within 7 days via private online link
- Every image that meets my standard - no per-image charges, no watermarks
- Full personal usage rights
- Group and family shots, managed calmly and efficiently on the day
- Transparent pricing - no hidden costs, no surprises
Packages from £350. Travel is included within 20 miles of Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex, and Hertfordshire, all covered.

Get in touch with your date and venue, and I'll come back to you - usually within a few hours.
