How he works with clients is collaborative and clear. The process starts with a friendly conversation about your goals and context — personal branding, corporate profiles or refreshed headshots for a team. On shoot day Ricky creates a calm atmosphere in his Bangor studio or at a chosen location, guiding expressions and posture with simple, reassuring cues. After the session your images are carefully edited to present a polished, natural result that remains true to who you are. Ricky’s experience working in marketing gives him a valuable edge: he understands how portrait imagery must perform for both people and brands.
