“In the 1970s, Richard was one of the young freelancers working from Cambridge Circus. From my experience in advertising in commissioning photographic work, I immediately knew Richard’s work was especially good the moment I saw it. He had a lot of really good portraits and excellent still lives, mainly monochromatic, and many 2x1/4, extremely sensitive executions.

He had the talent, the sensitivity, the touch; there was a special something about his pictures; I have never been completely convinced photography is real art, but sometimes a picture touches me and I rethink my conclusion, and that is the sensation I had whenever I saw Richard’s work” - C J Fitzjames, Artist and friend.
