A note from Richard

Hey, I'm Richard

I'm a wedding photographer based in Melbourne, and I've had the honour of photographing love stories across Australia, France and Italy. Weddings are about more than the big moments. They're about the quiet glances, the tearful hugs, the laughter between friends and the joy that fills the in-between.

My style blends candid documentary moments with elegant, editorial imagery. I keep my approach calm and unobtrusive so you can be fully present, because that's when the magic happens.

I limit myself to two weddings a month. That way every couple gets my full attention, from our first chat to the final delivery of your gallery, and I'm the one behind the camera on your day, never a substitute.
