Quality photography and images for outdoor family portraits, weddings & businesses. 

Hi, and welcome to Penrith Photographer Richard Willett's Photography site.

Richard Willett Photography offers high quality styled images for outdoor family portraits, businesses, weddings and events.

​

Firstly, I really love what I do!

When I was young, I remember borrowing my mum's little Kodak camera to take my first photographs. My Dad who had a love for photography also, insisted that I start with a roll of black and white film. With just 12 frames I clearly remember the anticipation of taking a photo and waiting for it to be developed. Not too long after, I received my very first camera of my own. I took the usual shots of the house, the family car, our dog and my family. Knowing then what I knew now I would have taken many more photographs as they are an excellent reminder of times past.

 

Fast forward to my teens, my Dad and Mum gave me a second hand Minolta 7s. It was a range finder camera with a fixed lens. Although it was made before I was born, it was well constructed and captured a fine image with a soft background.

Several cameras later in 2008, after watching professional photographers I started getting this strong desire to study this craft and pursue my dreams of becoming a professional photographer.  

After formal studies completing both a Certificate IV and a Diploma in Commercial Photoimaging, I launched my own family photography business covering all areas of New South Wales and beyond. 

 

I love to shoot portraits of families and gain great satisfaction in having happy clients who love my work. I have found that I never stop learning this art form and am still as passionate about getting the perfect image. 

Being experienced in Weddings, High School Formals, Birthdays, Outdoor Family Photography Sessions and Individual Portraits gave me the diversity of experience required to supply my client's photography needs.

My absolute favourite photography scenario would be outdoor family portraits and landscape imaging. 

My reason for this is that in addition to every family being unique, there is something unique and challenging about the light conditions of each day. I love trying to catch the interplay between parent and their children and the genuine affection within family relationships.  

​

I am also available for business portraits and commercial photography which is where my training comes into play. I always try to place myself in my photography clients shoes in order to portray an excellent image for their business. 

​

When I'm not taking photos, I enjoy spending time with my lovely wife and children at the foot of the beautiful Blue Mountains and western Sydney regions of Australia. I don't know who is the best photographer in Penrith is however I would like the opportunity to work with you and will do my utmost to give you the end result you deserve. 

I look forward to meeting you and providing you with high-quality, brilliant images.
