Simple, elegant photography, inspired by fashion and documentary styles.

Richard Crossman is a creative and versatile photographer with years of experience.

Contemporary, natural and elegant fashion-inspired photography

Richard Crossman is a portrait, wedding and commercial photographer living and working in the south west of England, UK. Inspired by fashion and documentary photographic styles, his work is contemporary, natural and elegant despite its simplicity.

Richard brings many years experience to his work, both as a photographer and filmmaker, but also as a lecturer who has taught some of the best photographers in the region. A versatile creator, Richard is as capable documenting weddings and events as he is in the studio shooting fashion.

“Weddings are living events which unfold organically, no matter how much you plan them. I work with couples to tailor my approach to their dreams and desires for their special day, blending contemporary fashion-inspired images with a documentary-styled approach in response to developing events.”

“Fashion photography has always been a huge influence on my technical and aesthetic style, and I am always excited to do this kind of work. I Enjoy the teamwork of working on a shared vision, regardless of how much creative input I can bring to a shoot. I am as happy working to fulfill a tight brief for an creative director as I am when I’m able to use my own creative vision.”

“The only difficult thing with my lifestyle portraiture sessions is remembering to take pictures when I’m having such a great time getting to know a family or couple! Having said that, I endeavour to give you enough space and time to forget that you are being photographed so I can capture you being yourselves. If at all possible, I like to arrange to do lifestyle shoots at one of our south west beaches, preferably at the golden hour.”
