25th Wedding Anniversary
Authentic View photos were phenomenal. Honestly first glance of the album was breathtaking! He was professional courteous and efficient. He captured even the small details. His photos told a story, our love story. I’m already trying to figure out another session/event to book Richard because his work is just that good. I would HIGHLY recommend Authentic View ANY day hands down.

AUTHENTIC!!
I had head shots taken for a future business endeavor. Richard fulfills the name of his business! He was professional and thoughtful. I had a vision and he executed all the while including the personal and genuine expression of myself into the photos. Richard was very friendly and prompt. I will most definitely be using his services again!

If I could I would leave 10 stars
I have worked with MANY many photographers over the years, done various shoots, and the whole nine but Richard is beyondddddd gifted at what he does. His eye for natural beauty and candid moments is exceptional. We had him shoot our second baby shower and they were stunning. Crisp. Just the right moments. Everything you would want in good quality photography. I know i’ll see his work one day in an editorial. My husband said even Rich shot his favorite photos we’ve ever gotten (as we do a lot of shoots). I will treasure those photos forever and im beyond grateful to have had him shoot our shower. I highly highly HIGHLT recommend his work and especially for those who are really looking to capture the true beauty and essence of a moment, Richard is your guy. I am BEYOND impressed.

Our favorite photographer!!
Richard is our go-to photographer! Whenever there’s an event or special occasion, our first thought is to hire him because not only does he know what he’s doing, he LOVES what he’s doing. It’s evident that this isn’t just a business or source of income for him, but that he is truly passionate about capturing special moments for people to cherish. We’ve always had a beautiful experience working with Richard, especially with having little ones. He’s very professional, patient, kind, and creative. While he’s great at capturing “picture perfect” photos, he also goes out of his way to capture “off-guard” or “in the moment” photos and they turn out so beautiful; every time I look at them I get to relive the moment again. My absolute favorite pictures of my family and I are ones that Richard has taken for us and we will cherish them forever!

Book Mr. Authentic!🙂📷
Mr. Authentic View really lives up to his name! He was the photographer at a Blood Drive that I attended at the African American Chamber of Commerce, on behalf of Cincinnati Metro in 2023. During my visit at the event, I would occasionally glance over at Mr. Authentic snapping pictures discreetly with a subtle smile on his face. 🙂 It was obvious that he was proud of the content he gathered. The moments he captured were full of smiles, and passionate facial expressions from those that were present to support a meaningful cause. Overall, Mr. Authentic was professional, pleasant, and a joy to cross paths with!

personal experience
My experience with photographer Rich at “An Authentic View” was outstanding! He did the photography at an event I attended and not only was he polite but he was very professional. He was also extremely skilled in his area of expertise. I was pleased with the outcome of my photos and other moments he captured at the event. With the right angles and lighting, his work made the photos come alive in real time. My goal is to work with “An Authentic View” again on future projects some day!

Great Photographer, better person
I had the pleasure of working with Richard for an event for my organization at a local church, and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. From the moment we connected, he was professional and friendly, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. He showed up early and was incredibly easy to work with. He blended in with the group while still capturing all the important moments. His friendly attitude really added to the positive atmosphere of the event. The quality of the photos turned out fire🔥 Richard delivered the photos in a quick turnaround, and the images were so full of life. He truly has an eye for detail and captured the event perfectly. I’m beyond satisfied with his work and will definitely be reaching out for future events. Highly recommend!

Thompson Wedding, Gender Reveal
Richard is very professional and has captured every moment that we have needed. His work continuously amazes me and he is the best I know. Every moment during our shoots he was concentrated on his job and how he can capture the necessary moments at all given time. He made us feel comfortable and at all times we felt assured he would do a good job. Great photographer and person. Highly recommended.

A mission to serve the community and remember Reco
My brother Reco and the Hoxworth annual Blood drive we host annually was brought to life in the beautiful photos that captured his memory, our family, friends and desire to serve Yeshua our Savior through blessing the community. Richard is timely and fulfills his commitment from start to end. I have worked with Authentic View for several years and have never been disappointed but amazed.

Truly gifted and a blessing to work with!
A 10/10 experience! Richard embodies a great example of someone who makes you feel comfortable while providing an excellent service and product. The space a creator provides, in terms of engagement, helps deliver incredible results. You can tell by his work the type of person he shows up as behind and away from the camera. His technical knowledge with cameras, lightening, post-editing, etc. offers another level of trust that he will deliver a vision worth returning to. Looking forward to working with him again! *typed from the heart, not generated by ChatGPT 👨🏾‍💻

Brand Shoots & Next-Gen Visionary Summit
I’ve worked with Richard for brand shoots, events, and more and one thing I can say is he sees the vision completely! He goes above and beyond to capture the entire experience and the thing I love the most is how his photography tells the story. If you missed the event, his photos would submerge you into them! He never misses a beat! He’s very people-oriented as well and I love his kindness and willingness to help! Working with Richard will be the best choice you can make!
