About
I’m a photographer and I love my job. Photography is my passion. It has taken me across the globe, from the Arctic to Antarctica. My work allows me to collaborate with inspiring people in exciting locations and for that, I am extremely grateful.
If you have a project in mind, do get in touch.
Thanks,
Richard

Richard’s photography is more than just a quest for the perfect shot – it is an attempt to narrate a slice of life, whether by capturing a moment or a very specific mood. Richard is an award-winning photographer with an ardent passion for his job – one that clearly comes through each and every shot of his.
‘Kushti Wrestling’ CreativePool Award winner 2023:
The light and colours are extraordinary. An interesting story well photographed.’ ••• ‘An amazing sensitivity behind the power and brutality. The idea to capture an underground undiscovered sport comes through in its dark behind-closed-door feel.’ ••• ‘It was great to see a focus on the people and the rituals, not just the wrestling moves.
‘The Lunch Break’ CreativePool Award winner 2022:
This juxtaposing pair of photographs by RICHARD WADEY capture the wistful nature of this sunny lunchtime break in Barcelona. Using surreal lighting and pastel pallette to both blend and isolate his subjects, Wadey leaves his viewers curious to know more.
