Capturing Love Stories with Heart & Purpose
I never set out to become a wedding photographer. Photography began as a creative escape from my world as a full-time accountant, but it quickly became the thing that lit me up. Today, it’s my honour to document love stories with purpose, turning once-in-a-lifetime moments into memories you can feel for years to come.
From weddings to engagement sessions and surprise proposals, my work is rooted in connection. I’m here to capture the real moments, the joyful chaos, the quiet glances no one else sees, and the emotions that can’t be staged.
Weddings are beautifully planned, yet the heart of them often lives in the unplanned. The laughter before the vows. A parent’s tearful hug. The way you look at each other when the world fades for a second. Those are the moments I’m here for. With a detailed eye and an unobtrusive approach, I capture your story with authenticity, elegance, and artistry just as it unfolds.

Based in Vancouver, I’ve had the privilege of photographing couples across British Columbia, from intimate elopements to grand celebrations. Every couple I work with becomes part of a bigger story; one led by love, faith, and the joy of human connection. The love God has shown me in my own life pushes me to extend that same care and dedication to every couple I photograph.
When I’m not behind the camera, I’m spending time with my wife and newborn baby, or unwinding with a good game of FIFA. But no matter where I am, my goal remains the same, to create timeless images that allow you to relive your love story for years to come.
If you're looking for a Vancouver wedding photographer who values storytelling, emotion, and the beauty of real moments, I’d be honored to capture your special day.

We are so happy with the incredible work Richmond did to capture our special day! From the very beginning, Richmond understood our vision perfectly and went above and beyond to bring it to life. Richmond’s creativity, attention to detail, and ability to capture those candid, heartfelt moments were truly exceptional. Not only was Richmond professional and easy to work with, but also made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. The final photos are stunning—more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer who listens, understands, and delivers with passion and precision.It was pouring but that didn’t stop him. Thank you for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever!
Richmond was the best and we couldn’t have gotten anyone better.
