What clients are saying

“I worked with Richard Barlow for several projects with Downtown Raleigh Alliance and would highly recommend! Richard was referred to us by another downtown organization. We were impressed with Richard's professionalism, responsiveness and ability to capture the feeling and atmosphere of downtown with minimal direction. The variety in the photos allows us to use them in different ways, as well. One project in particular was challenging - capturing light installations behind glass at night. Richard did an incredible job with a fast turnaround - we used those for our marketing to convey the event in a deeper and more impactful way. We look forward to working with Richard for more projects!”

Kathleen Louis, Downtown Raleigh Alliance

 

“We have been using Richard for corporate event photography and corporate staff headshots for years. He does great work and is always responsive to our needs. His event photography beautifully captures the occasion, even the often overlooked candid moments with colleagues. His staff portraits are nicely done and add beauty and interest to what has traditionally been a boring headshot. Definitively recommend!”

Catherine Knudson, Director of Planning, North Carolina Railroad Company

 

“Richard is such a talented photographer and always exceeds our expectations!”

Jennifer Allen, Sr. VP, Chief Strategy Officer, SEPI Engineering

 

“In my experience, finding a good photographer requires trust. Anyone who knows Richard Barlow understands that he is a caring individual first and that his ability to listen and prioritize around each client's needs sets him apart. Richard has an uncanny ability to establish trust quickly and then set about finding those beautiful yet fleeting moments that we all cherish.”

Albrecht McLawhorn, AIA, Architect & Owner, Intrepid Architecture

 

“Richard and I worked together on a professional photoshoot that included 96 individual photo sessions and 4 Group sessions. He was extremely organized, sourced professional make-up artists and an assistant each day of the shoot, suggested the beautiful venue based on our aesthetic, assisted in creating a photoshoot style guide for the team and made the entire process stress-free and fun. We've received so many positive responses from the photoshoot and our team is very proud to show off their new photos. Thank you, Richard!”

Beth Green, Marketing Operations Manager, Jim Allen Group/Coldwell Banker HPW Real Estate

 

“Richard handled all of the photography for both of my office locations. The quality was fantastic and he was a pleasure to work with. I definitely plan to use his services again if the need arises.”
