This is Richard | Wedding Photographer

Hello — I’m Richard, a Heysham-based wedding photographer who specialises in capturing weddings with a relaxed, documentary-led approach. My work focuses on the moments you don’t stage: the quiet glances, the spontaneous laughter, the scenes that tell the real story of your day. I aim to create wedding photos that feel natural, timeless and true to you. Why choose me? My style is unobtrusive and friendly. I’ll be part of the day without being in the way, helping couples feel comfortable in front of the camera so the best, most honest moments come through. I’ve been fortunate to be recognised with industry awards and warm recommendations from past couples — but what matters most to me is delivering photographs that allow you to relive the atmosphere and emotion of your wedding for years to come. How I work: I take time to get to know you before the wedding so the shoot feels familiar and relaxed. On the day I blend documentary coverage with considered portrait moments when they naturally fit, keeping direction light and unobtrusive. My aim is simple: to capture a true reflection of your day while making the experience enjoyable and stress-free for you and your guests. Complementary video: While wedding photography is my primary focus, I frequently collaborate with a small group of trusted videographers to offer combined photo+video options. Working with people I know well creates a seamless, respectful presence on the day and ensures images and film complement each other without interrupting the flow of events. Location and reach: Based in Heysham, I cover weddings across the UK, with a strong presence in Lancashire and the Lake District. Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony or a full celebration, I bring the same attentive, documentary sensibility to every wedding. If you want wedding photos that feel honest and alive — taken by someone who cares about your story and how it’s told — I’d love to hear about your plans and how I can help preserve them.
