Rich Howman Photography

I’m Rich Howman — a Frome‑based, award‑winning wedding photographer who loves to tell stories through honest, unforced images. Weddings are my primary focus: over nearly 20 years I’ve photographed hundreds (and counting) of ceremonies and celebrations across the UK and Europe. My aim is simple — to capture the real emotion, the spontaneous moments, and the quiet details that mean the most to you. My approach is relaxed and documentary‑led. I prefer to blend in with your day rather than interrupt it: lingering at the edges for those fleeting, laugh‑out‑loud instances and stepping forward for the cinematic portraits that give your album shape and drama. That balance — being invisible when needed, decisive when required — is what produces photographs couples treasure for decades. Why choose me? I bring experience, calm and a real curiosity about people. Building a connection before the wedding is part of my process: we chat, I learn your story, and many couples choose an engagement shoot to feel comfortable in front of the camera. On the day you’ll often find me moving with the crowd, anticipating moments rather than directing them, and supported by my trusted team when needed — from a second photographer to my amazing PA, Rhian, who helps keep planning simple and low‑stress. Working with me is straightforward and friendly. I focus on making the whole experience enjoyable: clear communication, practical planning advice, and a relaxed atmosphere on the day so you can be yourselves. The images I deliver reflect that: emotional, cinematic, and unmistakably yours. Although I’m based in Frome, I regularly work across the UK and Europe and will travel for weddings that excite me. If you’re planning a wedding and want a specialist wedding photographer who values story, atmosphere and real emotion above posed formality, let’s talk. I’d love to hear about your plans and share how I can capture the moments you’ll want to keep forever.
