Richard Cowen Photography

My name's Richard and I'm a North east based wedding photographer available to work through out the UK and abroad. ​ Photography found its way into my life 10 years ago when I became obsessed with the fundamentals that make a great photograph: light, shadows, composition, and emotion. As an enthusiastic amateur I decided to take the art form seriously and enrolled to get my advanced diploma in photography. Initially settling on product photography as my chosen path i was asked to do a friends wedding and fell in love with the whole event, the atmosphere and the photographs i could take, it's such a privilege to be a part of such a special day. ​ I'm a family man born and raised in the north east, I'm lucky to be married to my best friend Tracey and have 3 wonderful children Courtney, Benn and Ashleigh. Tracey joins me on wedding shoots as a 2nd photographer and we have Courtney training to potentially join us in the near future as a 3rd photographer. ​ My style is different to most photographers, i'm very relaxed and have an un-intrusive style, I've had it described as a photojournalistic style. I believe I'm there to tell the story of your wedding day, to capture the memories that will stay with you forever.    I'd love to be part of your day, have a look at my work and if you have any questions please let me know, I'm happy to correspond through email, phone and more than happy to meet up to discuss how we can help with your wedding.
