Dorset Wedding Photographer

In my view, wedding photography should always be honest, creative and driven by authentic moments and real human connection. It must tell a story and evoke intense feelings.

I'll start with some upfront advice - whether it’s me or someone else, please hire a photographer whose work and storytelling you adore but most importantly, hire a photographer you like & trust!

I hope you feel the same way. Let's talk and explore if I might be the person to tell your story.

Hello..

I'm Rich, a Dorset Wedding Photographer covering the entire UK and most destinations beyond. I hate having my picture taken, so this photo from a few (okay maybe 8) years back will have to suffice. I'm definitely as thin as when this was taken...

I love this job, I really do. I struggle to imagine doing anything else. After my first few weddings I knew I'd stumbled upon a job that I could truly love. After doing this for over 10 years and shooting weddings across the globe, I am known for creating wedding photos that tell a story and are packed with human emotion & creativity. I've never fallen into the trap of copying any industry trends and I avoid cheesy, cookie-cutter images like the plague. I care more about how a moment feels than how it looks and I work extremely hard on a wedding day to capture as many meaningful photos as humanly possible.

If I do my job right, the photos we create together will tell a timeless story of your wedding day, a story which you will be beyond proud to share with all your friends and family for decades to come.
