I studied for a BA in professional photography at The University Of Westminster, in Central London, this was followed by a period in Dubai, UAE where I set up my first photographic studio. Upon returning to London I assisted some exceptional still life and location advertising photographers including Bob Carlos Clarke, Desmond Burdon, Michael Hoppen, Hazel Digby, Martin Vallis and Ron Bambridge. I have now been a professional photographer for 19 years working internationally for numerous UK and international brands. Richard continues with his ongoing project to shoot the definitive photographic record of Spaceport America in the New Mexico desert.
