Richard Spurdens

I like to photograph what gives me an emotional response and each time I pick up the camera my pictures become personal. What I am passionate about is all to do with visual beauty, and that is an important element in my work.
From intimate portraits to elegant timeless figure studies, I try to apply the same demanding standards to all my photography.

Today with a small studio space to work in, I like to work with light and lighting to try and produce strong images, I enjoy shooting fashion, portraits and fine Art Nude figure studies, working with the model to create an image that shows the female form in an elegant and timeless form.

I started taking photographs in the days of film and chemicals. My interests in those days were Motor sport (Rally sport) and I had images published regularly in the motoring press of the day.

I am based in the UK on the Leeds/ Bradford border (West Yorkshire – God’s own country!) but travel widely to work on locations and with models.
