Unique moments to remember forever.

Rick was absolutely amazing, he came up with the most brilliant ideas to help make magic moments on our day. The images he took even managed to go semi viral on local groups with the amazing unique things he took pictures of! Cannot rate him high enough! Amazing photographer! And so thankful and pleased we chose him!

Captured our day perfectly!

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! From our first meeting, Rick made us feel comfortable and understood exactly what we wanted, with regular communication and updates.
On the big day itself, he captured everything we asked for, keeping us calm and at ease throughout the day.
Our photographs and final album are absolutely stunning, capturing the fun and laughter from our day perfectly - it was such a hard task narrowing down our favourites!
Thanks again Rick for the fantastic memories!
Best wishes, Lyndsey & Lee x

Excellent service

Rick was warm and friendly from the outset. My Dad had met him at a wedding fayre and was impressed by his products. When we first met him for the engagement shoot we were immediately put at ease. Rick chose an excellent location and took some lovely pictures, which he shared with us really swiftly. As for the wedding day, Rick was running around, getting all the shots we wanted and more. He was a true professional, hardly noticed in the church, so he didn't interrupt the service and worked non-stop until the first dance. Our albums are absolutely beautiful! Thank you for capturing our special day so beautifully. Helen and Graeham

So good I used him twice ;)

I first used Rick for my wedding in 1997 when he was a young lad starting out, he was very friendly and professional and knew what he was doing. The pictures were fantastic and of great quality. However that wedding didn't last, when I come to get married again in 2022. I instantly though of Rick he was very professional and friendly we went and had a chat about our expectations and what we wanted. Rick went and had a look at our venue before our wedding day as he hadn’t been there before, so he could get some ideas of best shots to save time on the day. We received our pictures not long after we returned from honeymoon the pictures were great and a beautiful reminder of our special day.
Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and would highly recommend.

Forever thankful

We were very lucky to have Rick photograph our wedding at the beautiful shrigley hall. Rick was amazing, from start to finish, from enquiry stage, to pre wedding shoot, answering my questions in between and most of all, made us feel so at ease on our wedding day. He is so friendly and went at our pace, during the ceremony and reception you didn’t even realise he was there, taking photos in the background and captured some beautiful memories. Thank you so much for creating such beautiful memories for us to look back for years to come.
Mr & Mrs Acheson ❤️

Izzy&Dan Worsley Wedding

Wow, there is no review great enough to show how Rick captured our most special day. From the initial meeting, regular contact, to the pre wedding photo shoot and finally our wedding day; everything was perfect. As very non-photogenic people who prefer being at the photographer end of the camera, Rick made us feel so comfortable and gave us such confidence to really express ourselves on the wedding day. Rick had provided some of the most beautiful photos we’ve ever seen, and we are so grateful for his skills and presence on our day. Couldn’t have asked for a better or more lovely photographer!!
Many thanks, and much love. Izzy & Dan Worsley xxx

Creative, professional and diligent photographer

We obtained Rick's details through Hitched and thought his prices were very competitive. The quality of his past photographs spoke for themselves. Once we engaged with Rick regarding his services, he was professional, charismatic and diligent. His knowledge of scenery and staff at various wedding venues was impressive. He made our wedding photos magical and captured the best day of our lives, to date. After the wedding, Rick provided an excellent choice of wedding albums. I would recommend him highly to anyone considering his services.

Couldn't have been better

Rick was brilliant from start to finish for our wedding. He went and had a look at our venue before our wedding day as he hadn’t been there before, to get some ideas for pictures. We received our pictures within a few weeks and the quality and range of pictures is fantastic, as is the quality of the album we’ve chosen.

Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and would highly recommend.

Highly recommended

We had the privilege of Rick being our photographer for our wedding in August 2021. He was highly recommended to us by our venue and our other suppliers. We had our pre wedding photo shoot in Denzel Gardens in Altrincham, it was clear from here that Rick was passionate about his work and a lovely guy; we felt at ease straightaway. On the wedding day he arrived early and stayed till late with his passion and enthusiasm from the get his. Rick knew every inch of the venue and where he could get the best shots from of me and my new husband. Everyone was so complimentary about Rick and said how lovely he was and how he made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable, we have no hesitation in recommending Rick. Thank you again for photographing our wedding, Kaley and Tom.

Wedding photography

From the outset Rick was friendly and approachable. He remained so even when we had to postpone due to Covid. He was helpful and understanding throughout challenging and uncertain times.
When the big day arrived he was punctual, diligent and enthusiastic. Gave flexibility due to constant changing situations without any difficulty.
We have some wonderful photos and fantastic memories of the day.
Would highly recommend Rick to anybody looking for a reliable and professional wedding photographer.

Outstanding professionalism and truly great photography!

Rick is amazing! We would never go anywhere else for photos now, and consider Rick the best! From the first day we met him over two years ago, we knew he was the right photographer for us for our wedding day. Always professional and with great suggestions, our first meeting with Rick showed us how friendly he was and so supportive in what we envisioned. We had to change our date three times, and on all occasions, he was so wonderful and made the moves so smooth and easy for us. We managed to get our pre-wedding shoot in with Rick before lockdown in 2020 and it was a wonderful morning just chatting and getting lots of natural photos which we were over the moon with. We made a vast list of who we wanted photos with on the day and where we wanted them as well! Rick knows Mere Court where we got married really well, so we knew this was a bonus! From the second Rick stepped in to the hotel on the morning of our wedding, he made us all feel really comfortable, happy and excited! The photos are just so incredible and really do speak a thousand words! The thought, detail and care gone into each photo is outstanding, and we are just so happy with every single one of them! Rick went above and beyond from start to finish, and we cannot wait to go back when our second child is born for another day of photos! Thank you so much Rick! Amazing quality and outstanding detail and professionalism. Franchi and Mike.

Fantastic photographer with quality photos

We hired Rick for our wedding in February and he was absolutely amazing from start to finish! He made us feel really comfortable even before the wedding and managed to capture every picture we wanted (and more!) He kept the energy high on what can be a tiring day and has given us so many beautiful shots that we will cherish forever. Would highly recommend to anyone!
