Richard Young is a fine art landscape photographer whose work explores the raw beauty and emotional depth of the natural world through atmospheric landscapes that invite deep contemplation. Richard’s approach is rooted in personal expression, capturing the essence of place beyond the purely visual. His artistic vision has evolved over the years from grand vistas to more intimate, introspective studies of nature. This distinctive perspective defines his work.

Richard’s fine art prints have been widely exhibited and his work has been recognised in prestigious international photography awards. His recognition for creating exquisitely detailed fine-art prints has led him to work as an ambassador for Epson Printers. He also works with Nikon New Zealand as an official Nikon Creator—part of a global team of visionary artists exploring new ground.

In 2013 Richard founded New Zealand Photography Workshops, which is now New Zealand’s largest photography tour operator.
