Authentic, storytelling wedding photography within the heart of Yorkshire…

Hello, I’m Richard, a documentary style wedding photographer based in Sheffield. I cover mainly South Yorkshire, and the surrounding areas but will shoot your wedding anywhere in the UK! I create images that truly represent your wedding day that are a mix of emotions, romance, and authentic moments.

I love to photograph weddings I see it as a privilege to be involved in your special day!

We had forgotten a lot of the day with it being so crazy but the photos have brought back so many beautiful memories, so thank you! – Chloe & Kye, Whitley Hall, Sheffield

I work in a natural, relaxed style combining a variety of photographic styles ranging from documentary to some traditional type poses. This creates an all-encompassing wedding gallery of beautiful photos and natural moments.

I’ll make sure you have a visual record of all your important moments, and all the unique, interesting, funny and meaningful moments as well, blending into the background, capturing moments as they happen. I feel privileged that I get to capture special moments for so many couples. Every wedding that I photograph is different, unique, and holds a fond memory for me.

I’m a regular photographer at the following venues. Hellaby Hall Hotel, Tankersley Manor, Wortley Hall, Whitley Hall, Burtwood Court Hotel, Holiday Inn Barnsley, Halifax Hall, Loversall Farm, Sheffield Town Hall, Barnsley Town Hall and Cannon Hall.

I’m also a recommended photographer for the Springkell Estate all the way up in Scotland!

I offer wedding photography services mainly in the Yorkshire area which includes, York, Wakefield, Sheffield, Doncaster, Huddersfield, Rotherham, Harrogate and Leeds. But I will photography your wedding anywhere in the UK!

What is documentary style wedding photography?

Good documentary photography is the work of a photographer with a critical eye and a story to tell. Read more…

My website features some of my recent documentary wedding photography images. The images on this site are typical of how I shoot weddings.

Documentary style photography is a way of capturing the events as they unfold in an unobtrusive way but I’m also very happy to do formal shots of your family members and guests, so you will get a good mix of photographs that will capture the overall feel of this special occasion.

I always want my wedding clients to remember their wedding day, not remember the time spent with the photographer.
