My Everything
Hi, hello, you good?
Despite the company name, most people call me Rich, rather than 'Clarkie.' I hate having my picture taken, so this photo from a fews back will have to suffice. I'm definitely as thin as when this was taken. Honest.
It's late 2022 and it's been a year of monumental change for our family. After 10 years living in Los Angeles and photographing weddings across the United States and beyond, we decided to move back to the UK. We now find ourselves living in Dorset, which is lovely, but boy do we miss California and all the clients and friends we made a long the way. It's where our boys were born and is a huge part of who we are.
It's been a year of adjustment, but now I'm itching to get going on this side of the pond, and start shooting some great UK weddings, possibly even some European Destination weddings!? I hear Brexit made all that stuff easier while I was away...
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. Wedding photography isn't without it's downsides, that's for sure, but I knew early on that it would make me smile, not just at weekends. I was finally creating something meaningful for clients - couples who I saw as friends and with whom I had a real connection with. I'd never had that before and I cherish that aspect of this job more than anything.
