Hi there! I’m Paul Richards, a passionate photographer with deep roots in Truro, Cornwall, where my love for photography first began as a child. I honed my craft studying photography in Bristol before returning to my Cornish hometown to gain hands-on experience in a local studio.
For a decade, I worked as a press photographer for both local and national newspapers, all while continuing to expand my skills in the studio. In 2009, I took the leap to start my own business, PR4Photos, with a simple mission: to put my clients first and capture those unforgettable moments that tell their unique stories. Whether it’s for businesses, brands, or special events, I’m dedicated to delivering exceptional photography that makes an impact.
My background in press photography has given me a keen eye for detail and the ability to bring briefs to life, creating compelling visual narratives for everything from promotional campaigns to milestone events. Over the years, my work has taken me across the UK and beyond, earning international recognition and building a diverse portfolio that spans multiple photography disciplines.
I’ve been fortunate to photograph some incredible people, from royalty and rock stars to actors, and I’m proud to have worked with a wide range of clients, from global names like Tesco, Renault, and Eastern Airlines to local Cornish gems like St Austell Brewery, Coodes Solicitors, and British Lithium. I’ve also had the privilege of supporting wonderful organizations like St Petroc’s, Cornwall Heritage Trust, and the Cornwall Air Ambulance, helping them share their stories through powerful imagery.
Photography isn’t just my job – it’s my passion. I love what I do, and I’d be thrilled to work with you to capture the moments that matter most. Let’s create something amazing together!
