Capturing Magic with Richard - Our Engagement Shoot and Beyond

Hiring Richard as our wedding photographer and videographer was a decision we celebrated from the start. His blend of professionalism, enthusiasm, and clear communication set a high bar from our initial consultation, making the entire process seamless and stress-free.

Richard has a unique talent for making any photo shoot feel like a delightful date rather than a formal event. During our engagement shoot, he effortlessly guided us into natural poses, helping us forget the camera and truly engage with each other. This approach not only relieved us from the stress of wedding planning but also resulted in genuine, joyful photographs that we'll treasure forever.

What truly sets Richard apart is his ability to create a comfortable and fun atmosphere, encouraging spontaneity and genuine moments. His patience and skill in directing us, combined with his sharp eye for detail, meant our photos beautifully captured the essence of our relationship.

As we look forward to our wedding day, our excitement grows, knowing Richard and his team will be there to capture every moment with his creative flair and passion. We're confident that his work will capture the beauty and emotion of our special day, providing us with memories we'll cherish for a lifetime.

For couples seeking not just a photographer, but a memorable experience, Richard is your go-to. His dedication to his craft and his clients shines through every shot, making him an unparalleled choice for capturing the love and joy of your wedding day.

Thank you, Richard, for not just capturing our love, but for amplifying it through your lens. We can't wait to see the magic you'll create on our wedding day!

Great experience!

I heard of Shuttered Light photography (Richard) through a co worker who hired Richard as a videographer for her wedding. She stated that she wished she had hired him as her photographer too because she loved him that much! I looked through his work from instagram as well as his website and I was in love! I decided to go with him for my photography and I'm glad I did.

My wedding was a long day from 10am to 11pm as we had a Vietnamese as well as an American ceremony. Richard maintained professionalism throughout the whole day. He was as very easy to communicate with. He was also very enthusiastic about taking photos! He gave us directions throughout the shoots and we appreciated that because we aren't lost trying to figure out poses. He made everyone including the bridal party and guests feel special. He listened to suggestions and took pictures of everything we asked for. During the second ceremony/reception, he brought on a second photographer who was also passionate and courteous. We appreciated that they were both friendly and easy to get along with. They also got along with all my vendors. Although it was a long day, they did it with a smile on their face and is always eager to take more photos!

The photos arrived at a timely manner. He produced more photos for us than we anticipated as well. Richard is proud of his work and it shines through in the photos! We have so many great photos to cherish and relive our beautiful day. I love the timeless but realistic feel style of photography created by Richard! Thank you Richard and his team for making our day so special!

Exceptional and Professional

Sir Richard has exemplified professionalism throughout our entire experience, from our initial email exchanges to finalizing timelines and even meeting in person on my wedding day and for an engagement shoot, which turned into a post-nuptial shoot due to unforeseen circumstances on our part. His approach was incredibly enjoyable, with no dull moments, and his expertise in photography shone through as he guided us on posing and angles. My husband, our families, and I are thrilled with the outcome. Ms. Dess was exceptionally sweet and helpful during the photoshoot whenever we needed assistance. Kudos to you both! Keep up the excellent work, and may you be blessed abundantly!
