ACTION AND LOCATION PHOTOGRAPHER

Richard is an action and location photographer specializing in exciting and unusual images.

He prefers the freedom, spontaneity and sense of reality of 35mm and, using innovative techniques,

covers a wide range of subjects. Working with the Red Arrows, he pioneered the first head-on, air-to-air

pictures of the team coming straight at the lens and has since developed similar techniques

for stunning pictures of all the RAF fast jets, civil aircraft, cars, motor bikes and other fast moving

subjects. Although well known for his unique air to air and action images, Richard has also worked in

many other areas of the business and areas of the world, for many different clients including those listed below.
