Richard Watkins Photography Full Description

Capturing the Heart of Your Wedding Story

If you’re planning your wedding and want photos that truly reflect your day, meet Richard Watkins, a Kidderminster-based wedding photographer. Richard understands that weddings are all about people and the special moments you share. His passion is capturing those genuine, fleeting emotions—the meaningful glances, joyful nerves, bursts of laughter, and happy tears—that make your celebration uniquely yours. While he mainly works across the Midlands, including Worcestershire, Bromsgrove, Telford, Hereford, and Birmingham, Richard is happy to travel anywhere in the UK to be part of your big day.

A Natural and Observational Approach

Richard’s style is all about being natural and unobtrusive. Rather than directing lots of posed shots, he focuses on quietly observing the real interactions between you and your loved ones. This means your wedding day flows naturally, and your photos capture the true emotions and atmosphere of the celebration. Of course, he’ll offer gentle guidance when needed—especially to make the most of beautiful lighting—but his priority is to let you enjoy your day without feeling like you’re stuck in a photoshoot.

What You Can Expect from Richard

  • Focus on Moments: Photos that highlight the small, unscripted interactions that tell your unique story.
  • Documentary Style: A candid, observational approach that captures your day as it naturally unfolds.
  • Joyful Celebrations: A genuine appreciation for the emotions and happiness that make weddings so special.
  • Midlands-Based with UK Travel: Serving couples across Worcestershire and the Midlands, with availability to travel anywhere in the UK.

Most memorable day captured to perfection

Richard was brilliant in every aspect, he really understood the vision of what we wanted for our wedding photos and helped capture such a magical day in the best way imaginable. I could not recommend Richard more if I tried, from candid shots of the evening that captured the moment perfectly to group and single shots we show to others that highlight us in our best light, everything was superb. We get comfortable and confident that we were in the right hands throughout the entire night and we could not be happier with the outcome of Richard’s work. Thank you so much Richard once again for capturing our most happiest day, Alex and Alexandra.

A fantastic photographer for a fantastic day

Thank you so very much Richard for all of your hard work. The entire day was fantastic and I am so glad that you were able to capture so much of it! Richard is an absolute professional and genuinely cares about the customer. This really showed throughout the day, he was unobtrusive whilst snapping some cracking shots. (1 of which he has already sent to us less than 24 hours later). A great person and a fantastic photographer. We would highly recommend him for any event.

Wonderful photographer

Richard did an amazing job as our wedding photographer, capturing our special day. He met up with us prior to the wedding to discuss what we wanted and also checked out our venue so that he knew where best to get the photos we wanted. We wanted a fairly relaxed set of photos with only a few selected posed ones and Richard got this just right. He was very helpful, even helping with the flowergirls shoes at one point. I highly recommend Richard Watkins Julie and Richard

Fantastic photographer

Richard was fantastic at our wedding. He captured our day perfectly and our photos tell a story of our special day from beginning to end. He listened to everything we required and took photos throughout the day without us even knowing he was there. Our photos were back to us after our wedding withing a week or so. Great service from beginning to end

We did not want a intrusive photographer

Richard recently photographed our wedding and we are really very pleased with the photographs. He captured the day beautifully and we have a lovely wedding album to reflect this. We did not want a intrusive photographer and Richards approach was spot on. We would throughly recommend him to provide a professional service to capture your special day. Nicki & Chris

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My first as main photographer will always stand out. The one with the mechanical rodeo bull was also an interesting one!

What about your business are you most proud of?

Customer satisfaction.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Try to relax and enjoy the day. If small things don't go to plan, don't sweat about it. Ultimately, if you end the day married, it has been a success.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Transparent umbrellas to let the light through, but I always bring a few with me, just in case.

Describe how you got into photography.

My Dad got me interested as soon as I was old enough to not drop his camera! For him it stayed a hobby but it got me interested in creating images. I had my own camera for my 16th birthday. Initially I was developing my own film and printing black and white prints our garage dark room.
