Reviews for Raw Weddings - Photography

Unbelievably fantastic
From minute one, Richard was fantastic. We discussed ideas for pictures and styles of pictures prior to the big day and Richard was realistic but very open minded about what 0we wanted (pictures on top of box hill - on a semi rainy day). On the day he was incredible, he manged to get lots of candid photos as well as posed pictures and threw in a couple off the cuff as we'd had a magnificent double rainbow appear which just made some of the pictures look amazing. Every time there was an opportunity, he was able to capture it - i guess that's his job but that's what made him so good.
Overall:
Literally everything we wanted and more. The pictures that came out were incredible. Would 100% recommend.

We couldn't be happier, and highly recommend Richard.
We cannot recommend Richard highly enough. From initially reaching out to him, he was responsive, thoughtful, accommodating and friendly - during the planning process, we had multiple different vendors who he was working with tell us what a pleasure it was to deal with him, and we certainly found the same. Richard was in touch early on, and we really appreciated the call he suggested to run through the day. He really captured our wedding perfectly; his photography is professional and extremely high-quality, while at the same time managing to capture the personalities of us and our guests. One of the guests said after the wedding that they were particularly impressed that Richard was not overbearing or demanding, but nevertheless created an excellent wedding album.
We couldn't be happier, and highly recommend Richard.

Richard was amazing from the first video call to last picture
Richard was warm, knowledgeable and accommodating from the start. He went out his way to get to know us as a couple over the months before our wedding. Richard came to us before the big day to meet us in person and take photos of us. He went over and above to make sure everything was right on the big day. He was riendly to all the guests which put them at ease and enabled him to get some great pictures. I couldn't recommend him enough. Amazing photographer and amazing person.

Fantastic photographer!
Richard, assisted by second photographer, Rob, did the most fantastic job and I wouldn't change a thing. They were so professional from start to finish and made us all feel at ease with their suggestions for photos and also ensuring we had all the shots we wanted too. And the final photos were just stunning! We are over the moon with how they all turned out and have loved reliving our day through the pictures!

So much more than just a photographer
Richard was an absolute gem at our wedding. From the incredibly kind and professional communication beforehand up to his work at our wedding day! He took the most gorgeous pictures, he was up for every silly idea, his editing was amazing and tbh it felt like having a friend, a secret additional guest at the wedding. A very sweet, kind and talented artist who would make feel any bride (no matter how awkward with photos or posing) feel like a beloved queen. Don't hesitate, trust me! Book him! Thanks for everything, Richard, you are one of a kind

Captured our day perfectly
We could not be happier with our decision to book Richard for our wedding.
Throughout the big day, Richard was warm, professional and discreet capturing every moment perfectly!
The final photos arrived unbelievably quickly and were everything and more that we could have hoped for!
Book RAW Weddings - incredible value and you will not be disappointed!

Outstanding
I don’t think we could have booked a better photographer. The photos are phenomenal, capturing all the happiness of the day and all the key moments. Richard was so easy to work with and his passion for photography really shone through. We are going to need to buy a lot more frames because so many of the photos will be going up on the wall!!

Absolutely amazing!
I chose Richard having used him professionally - as soon as I got engaged I knew I wanted to have him be my wedding photographer, knowing how brilliant, friendly and calm he is - not to mention how amazing his photos are! He was fantastic with all the communication up until the day, and on the day arrived early and was snapping away before we arrived. He was with us throughout the day and took so many amazing, brilliant photos - posed and candids, we are so happy with them. The speed with which he turned them around was fantastic, too! Our guests commented on how friendly and relaxed he was and he made everyone feel at ease. The photos captured the joy of the day so well, and we couldn't be happier! Thank you Richard!

Fantastic photography!
Richard is an extremely talented photographer - to the point that after our engagement photos we knew we wanted to choose him as our wedding photographer as well. He really knew how to capture the essence of our relationship through the photos. On top of that, Richard is super friendly and kind. During the shoot, he guided us through different ideas, angles and locations. He has a lot of experience in wedding photography and I couldn’t recommend a better photographer for an engagement or wedding album than Richard from Raw Weddings!
