Profile

Richard Pentin is a versatile professional photographer based just outside London in Kingston Upon Thames, Surrey with many years experience behind the lens.

There's a distinctive style and sensitivity about Richard's photographs which is surprisingly rare to come by. Whether he's photographing people, still life, the environment around us or something more abstract, he consistently manages to capture the natural beauty of the scene. It's more than just technical proficiency. Richard has the sensibilities, rapport and artistic flair to ensure each photograph is beautifully crafted and as individual as the next.

He works with agencies, contract publishers and companies photographing anything from product packshots, editorial, advertising, location shoots and travel photography to product launches, corporate events, PR and commercial portraits.

Richard also specialises in social photography and can be hired by private clients for weddings, engagement portraits, christenings or family portraits. His stylish and sensitive approach to photography combined with his experience, professionalism and approachable manner ensure clients receive a unique and contemporary collection of beautiful photographs.

He was recently commended in no less than 7 categories in the recent Professional Photographer of the Year 2007 Awards. He's also a recent national finalist in the Creatives Behind the Lens Competition, sponsored by Corbis stock images - the work was exhibited in London and Manchester over the Summer.

Richard is also proficient in Photoshop and generally does all his own retouching.
