Richard Beech Photography - About Me

I am a photographer and writer based in Dorset. With over 12 years’ experience of professional photography, I have been a Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society (LRPS) since November 2017. I made the Shortlist of the British Photography Awards in 2020 and 2021 and was a Finalist in the British Wildlife Awards for 2024.

In addition to undertaking a range of commercial photographic assignments, I enjoy wildlife, landscape and lifestyle photography.

I've been taking photographs in some form or another since being at primary school, my first camera being a Polaroid Button camera at the age of 8. I continued my interest in photography into secondary school by saving up for a SLR and my own dark room. In 2011, I was lucky enough to do some international volunteer work and so decided to take a camera with me to get some decent shots of my travels. I bought myself a Canon 5D Mark II and my passion for photography became somewhat of an obsession.

In November 2017, I successfully achieved the Licentiate level distinction with the Royal Photographic Society.

Many of my photographs are available to purchase as high quality prints and/or wall art. I also make my creative images available for licensing for commercial use through various stock agency websites including the Science Photo Library. NFTs of some of my work are also available to purchase.
