Love Letters

Craig and Andrea were amazing photographing our wedding.

We're over the moon with the shots, and they went above and beyond on the day to capture the essence of the day. We wanted to avoid any posed, stiff photos, but instead focus on candid shots.

If this is what you're after - Craig and Andrea are who you want!

There’s so many things to think about when planning a wedding- without doubt one of the most important things is choosing the right photographer and Andrea and Craig were the BEST choice we could have made.

Not only will you get beautiful photos but you will actually enjoy your day rather than spending the entire time taking staged photos.

Their style is un-posed and natural but are also incredibly soft and dramatic.

They perfectly matched the energy of our day and we got so many compliments about them from guests.

Trust their expertise- they WILL get the shots you want and you’ll have the most beautiful pictures to remember your day.Sunset shots, intimate moments from the day and little interactions that other people wouldn’t notice are all captured forever.

One of the best decisions we made!

Goooooood Evening you two!

We are currently at Charlie's Mums in the middle of the East Sussex sticks! BT is down so no phone signal and WiFi.......so the only way we could view the gallery was a trip down to our local! Haha

We absolutely love the photos! Can I just say the gallery caption should be "Donna's Facials" - you certainly caught me looking natural! We have loved, laughed and almost cried at the gallery! We are in absolute awe! You certainly captured the day in all respects! No such thing as a bad photo eh?! Hahaha It has been lovely taking a trip down memory lane!

Thank you so much for creating the most beautiful gallery! We are super Impressed - they have turned out alot better than we could have Imagined. You guys are the most amazing duo! I knew the 1st day I met you both. You made our day extra special and we will forever be thankful. When i look back, I think we are soooo lucky to have crossed paths .My attention to detail and superb military style research left no stone unturned. You both made the short list and aced at the meet up - I knew I had to have you both for our day!

Before your heads get any bigger I will leave it at that.

We always knew we wanted fun photographers to capture the love and laughter of the day, and boy did we get that! From the moment we met on zoom we bonded instantly, and knew Craig and Andrea were the ones for us. Our pre-wedding photo shoot confirmed we’d made the right decision - despite being nervous, we came out with some stunning photographs.

When it came to the big day they were absolutely brilliant - they were always there to photograph moments of fun and silliness, but also took some absolutely beautiful, romantic photographs. We will cherish these memories forever, and can’t wait to see the full story of our day told through pictures. Thank you so much!

You might not know it yet, but if you’re looking for a photographer to capture your event, you’re looking for Richards & Co Photography!! Craig and Andrea captured our wedding day in August in the most magical and unobtrusive way.

As people, these two were widely loved by our entire wedding party, they were approachable, friendly, fun and professional.

Then for the photos, they have completely and utterly blown us away. They captured everything, and I mean everything, things we didn’t even know had happened! Their style is next to none, they captured our day as it happened, no staged photos just pure happiness and love. We can’t thank you both enough!

Steve and Jen

Just to say the biggest of thank yous for yesterday. We had the most amazing day and you both were fantastic, it felt more like having friends at the wedding rather than photographers! We had so many comments from family and friends about how great you were to be around too.

Hiiiiiiiiiiiii!!

Thank you SO MUCH, we've just looked at everyone (with a Lemsip and an alcohol-free beer - rock and roll).

It's so lovely to see all the smiles that you've captured from the day, and to live it all again!

Hi Guys, Thank you so much for getting this back to us so quickly, absolutely love them. What a day/night it was and thanks so much for capturing it for us and enjoying the day with us. For us it didn't feel like you were our photographers, more friends and part of our day.. Not quite sure how we are going to have favourites amongst all those, we love them all and they bring back some very specific memories. I hope it sticks in your memories as one of your faves and we like to think we`ll say hello again sometime.

Craig and Andrea were a welcome sight for me on the morning of my wedding- everything goes so quickly so it was a real comfort to have a friendly face there!

From the engagement shoot through to the wedding they made us both feel comfortable and their style of photographs were exactly what we wanted and they were quick to reply to any email queries we had (before and after!).Being able to have a laugh with your photographers and to feel at ease made such a difference to the photos- which are absolutely beautiful.

We cannot recommend them enough!

The photos are absolutely fantastic, so happy with them, definitely did the day justice! Thanks again for all your hard work on the day.

Such a mix of drama/amazing shots and absolute silly billies!!

Beautiful, artistic, funny, brilliant....thank you!

OMG we absolutely love them!! Thank you thank you thank you. And you’ll be pleased to know the fizz we opened popped so aggressively it’s left a dent in the ceiling! Amazing! Just casually going through them all for the 5th time already... I’m obsessed. You guys are TOO GOOD

Can't rate Craig and Andrea highly enough. Everything from the initial booking through to the delivery of the final photos has been amazing.

The photos taken were amazing, their style of photography was exactly what we were looking for and allowed us to spend more time with our wedding guests without spending hours off taking staged photos.

They both blend in with guests and manage to capture every moment of the day perfectly. They were also amazing through the pandemic, dealing with postponements professionally and I'm glad we were able to get them for our rebooked day.

Wouldn't have been the same day without these two as our photographers.

Craig & Andrea were excellent, we (and our guests) cannot sing their praises highly enough!

They were always quick to reply to our emails before and after the wedding and immediately put us at ease. They are a fantastic couple and remained professional throughout our very long wedding day. We were looking for a photographer that would capture how happy we both were, and how much fun our guests were having, and Richards & Co absolutely delivered!

The photos have brought smiles to our faces, made our mothers tear up, and gave our pals a good laugh. We cannot recommend them enough.

We are having a reception in India, and if they were available to travel so far, we would absolutely hire them again.

There were lots of tears.....how amazing are these! You guys are so clever, can't thank you enough! 

So pleased you were there on the day to capture all these special moments, love the ones of Joe getting thrown up (twice?! I didn't even know about one of these) and one of the Chris' looking into the failed confetti cannon looking confused haha and all the lovely ones of us that feel very 'us', no cheese or over the top-ness at all! 

We're more than happy to write a testimonial for the website/Facebook if you'd like one as we'd recommend you to everyone!! 

Wow just wow! What can we say...... Craig and Andrea are just amazing, they go above and beyond their duties of photographers in so many ways we just can’t put into words. Their style and approach as photographers is out of this world

We had so many people say to us that Craig and Andrea are such great fun and professional right till the end.

We just can’t thank you enough X

Thank you so much mate. We are just having dinner then going to settle in to the whole gallery. This is amazing. I truly cannot thank you enough. It's absolutely perfect.

Craig and Andrea photographed our wedding in October last year. and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

We love all of our pictures. Those that the pair took during our engagement shoot, as well as those of our big day at Rowallan Castle in Ayrshire.

Craig and Andrea offer a very personal service. We got to meet them over drinks before committing. Throughout the process they were incredibly kind and friendly.

Wow those photographs are just absolutely amazing! We had such a lovely night last night going through them all it was like doing the day all over again. We cant even begin to thank you and Andrea enough! Having you both as our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we made for the wedding and we are just so grateful to both of you!

Believe it or not Ryan absolutely hates having his photo taken and you both made us so comfortable that it was so so easy. The photos were above and beyond our expectations and are a phenomenal reminder of our day. Thank you both so much! We just felt so at ease and really got along with both of you. You just made our day so much easier. 

I don’t know what we would have done without them (Craig & Andrea). They really have a way with people; so many people told us how much they liked them and it was great to see so much banter. It made the smiles all the more natural.

The pictures have come out beautifully – just the other day someone was telling me that they are the most stunning wedding pictures they have ever seen! We will treasure them forever and I can’t stop looking at them.

It was magical and we both loved having you there. It's hard to describe but it felt like we were pals from the moment we met and that made it all so much fun and a delight to be around you.

We got married in 2018 and using Craig & Andrea as our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we made. From the engagement shoot, we got on with them with ease, they made us feel comfortable and we had a great afternoon. We were excited to see them again for the wedding.

On the wedding day, they got a flat tyre and due to our rural location, it was a bit of a nightmare morning for them! They remained professional and managed to get to us in good time for the getting ready pictures.

They fit into our wedding like they were guests, accommodated our requests, and, of course, took amazing and creative pictures. We knew that the photographs for our wedding would be something that we enjoyed for the rest of our lives, so we are glad we made the investment with Craig & Andrea. Our friends were so impressed with their photos, that they booked them for their wedding the following year, it was so nice to be reunited!

I still look at our photos 3 years on and feel the joy of the day, and I know I will for many years to come.

Oh my god these are SO SO GORGEOUS! Really happy with them, they're even better than we'd hoped  You've really captured the atmosphere of the whole event (as well as making us both look very fit, so thanks for that!) - just been trying to pick photos to put up on facebook and ended up putting almost all of them on, I just couldn't pick favourites!

You were both absolutely brilliant, I'll definitely be recommending you to everyone who gets married in the future - thanks so much for making our day even more perfect and for giving us such wonderful memories that will let us remember that happiness forever. 

Our wedding was just over two weeks ago and I’ve been trying to find the words to express how wonderful Craig and Andrea were. There are so many talented photographers in the North East but they made us feel so relaxed on the pre shoot and captured our wedding day perfectly.

Not only are we overjoyed with the photos, but just as importantly the way in which they went about their work on the day. So many of our guests commented on how fantastic they were - friendly, unobtrusive, charismatic just a few words used to describe them.

Craig and Andrea photographed our wedding this summer at the Lake District and it was one of the best wedding decisions we made. If you choose them to photograph your wedding you are getting much more than just wedding photographs.

You have the opportunity to meet this awesome couple in person for a complimentary engagement photoshoot (ours lasted over two hours and we got some beautiful photos - they even printed a big version of our favorite shot to display at our wedding) - this is so refreshing because you are able to work with them before your actual wedding day and you get a feel of how to work together to get the best possible pictures on your wedding day.

Most importantly, their presence on the actual wedding day was so unique and unobtrusive. This meant that our pictures were so natural and in the moment, it felt so easy to be photographed by them.

The most unique thing about them was the feeling of familiarity. We felt as though they were friends at our wedding and not someone there to do a job. They got along with all our guests (some who didn't even speak English) and got beautiful shots of the children at our wedding.

We can not recommend them enough!

Thank you so much for all of your hard work on our wedding day - the photos are amazing! You went above and beyond what was expected of you, everyone was very impressed at how late you stayed! So many people commented on what a laugh you were and the attention you gave to the kids.

Above all, thank you for capturing our special day so beautifully. There are so many great photos that we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

You captured the feeling of an absolutely fabulous day. When I showed them to a friend she thought she was looking at film stars! Could recommend you and your partner to anyone you are both brilliant...

WOW, we absolutely love all of these - we can't believe how incredible they are and how magical the day looks. Flicking through last night and this morning, each picture has allowed us to relive the day and moments that we'd either forgotten about or just hadn't seen on the day. You really captured not only everything that was going on, but also our personalities and the essence of what we wanted our whole day to be about.

Thank you so much again for what you have done for us; the photo's have blown us away and we just absolutely love them all!

Thank you so much they're fantastic ... Over the moon with them! Can't thank you both enough! Love the ones with my dad I'm so pleased to have some amazing pictures with him you've no idea what it means, he's so unwell and they capture every emotion in them, something to treasure. Thank you! 

Well.... there's only one thing to say... f*ing fabulous!! How did you make everything (including us ;) ) look that good??!! Thank you for being the best wedding guests ever!!

Thank you so much for our wedding photos...we all love them and they are the perfect memory of our perfect way. You were both amazing to work with and made us feel comfortable and happy from the word go. We couldn't have wished for anymore and it was great having you as part of our day. Thanks for making us feel at ease and adding to the fun and laughter!

Craig oh my god that was amazing Annie and I just got to relive our wedding day all over again. Thank you. Holding back the tears once again haha what have you done to me man lol I can't even put into words how you made our day. I can't wait to share with the family they are all going to go crazy haha I felt like I was there seeing Annie get ready it was truly beautiful.

We've been looking again and again at photos and sharing them with family and we are thrilled with them! Thank you so much. They really reflect the day as we remember it, and add in some lovely images of things we had forgotten or not seen in the rush of the day! The colours are just beautiful and remind us of how summery and bright the day felt, rain aside! The way you captured the ceremony in particular is fantastic, and same for the speeches, and will give us lots of beautiful memories of the vows, and exchanging the rings. We love the close ups of the hands too, they're really delicate and quite unusual.

Thanks so much for yesterday -- we really enjoyed it, much more than we were expecting to actually! You're good company and put us right at ease, and your energy and enthusiasm for capturing some great shots was wonderful, so thank you!

We've both had a look at photos online and think they look stunning, thank you. We're really impressed.

Craig I just want to say holly f*** Annie and I love the photos. We are so excited for the wedding day now more than we were before meeting up with you and Andrea thank you so much.

We cannot thank you enough for capturing our perfect day so, well...perfectly. We are over the moon with the photos, as are our guests who have commented on them in the most positive of lights.

We have loved getting to know you over the last 8 months or so and are truly glad that we found you. We could not have asked for more hardworking photographers with great attention to detail.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Wonderful photos! Such patience, skill, professionalism! They made me cry all over again. What a lovely memory you have given us all. Well done!

Absolutely stunning photos, of a truly magical day. From the Pre-Engagement shoot, to the hard work by both Craig and Andrea on the day...we couldn't have asked for anything more from two wonderful people. The photography speaks for itself. Can't speak more highly of the quality of the images.
The occasion, venue and most of all, the beautiful bride, were captured elegantly. Thank you both again. Your amazing work will ensure this stays in our hearts and minds for eternity.
