Hello, my name is Rich.

I am a narrative landscape photographer based in Southern New Hampshire. My practice is rooted in deep, long-form visual storytelling. I spend an entire year dedicated to a single, immersive documentary project.

Through deliberate slow-exposure photography and written essays, I chronicle the emotion of our region’s most enduring spaces.

My current project is 'The Story of Covered Bridges', a deep-dive exploration of New England’s historic covered bridges and their surrounding environment.
