    The Photographer you want in pandemic and normal times

    Cheryl worked with us throughout all the wedding changes we had to make due to the pandemic. She was kind, patient, and answered all our questions and soothed our anxiety around the pandemic approved wedding. She was generous with her time and lighthearted and positive. She is a true artist and we're so lucky she was able to photograph our intimate wedding. We highly recommend her!

    Truly the Best of the Best

    Truly the BEST of the BEST and BEST OF BOSTON. If you have the opportunity to hire Cheryl, do not miss out. We had the absolute privilege of being photographed by Cheryl Richards for our November wedding at the Boston Harbor Hotel and are blown away by her magnificent work. Having the opportunity to relive the day through our photos brought tears to our eyes. Cheryl captured every single moment so elegantly, beautifully and emotionally and we feel beyond grateful to have had the chance to work with Cheryl. The compliments and rave reviews of the photography are endless. The absolutely beautiful pictures, and the way Cheryl captured the day, makes you feel like you are in it again. Her eye is second to none, capturing the most electrifying and intimate moments of your day. While Cheryl's talent is unparalleled, what really stands out is her spirit.... she kept the energy alive and her passion and enthusiasm helped us stay warm on a 30 degree day. Her love for photography and her craft is so evident, and her passion comes out in her work and transcends into the beautiful pictures for her clients. She really is special! We love you, Cheryl!!!

    The best photographer ever!

    I can not say enough good things about Cheryl. She is a true professional who’s talent far surpasses others in her field. She will do what ever it takes to get that money shot. She is so accommodating and easy to work with. I just looked at my sneak peek gallery and I am just blown away. These pictures are the exact reason I had to have her be part of our special day. I just can’t believe how gorgeous they came out. I can not thank her enough. This is my second time having Cheryl take photos for my family and I and it won’t be the last.

    Love Cheryl! Highly Recommend.

    Cheryl is AMAZING. I feel so fortunate we were able to have her at our Boston wedding. Her familiarity with the space (Ritz-Carlton, Avery St), professionalism and warmth allowed my husband and I to feel completely comfortable in what otherwise would have been so awkward. 

    Her responsiveness leading up the wedding was great. Since we were not local, we scheduled calls and met by FaceTime to ensure we had all of the details covered. When we finally did meet, it was as if we were old friends greeting each other with big hugs. She's SO sweet! Cheryl fit seamlessly into the wedding day so much so that I wondered if she had caught all of the memories. Sure enough, the pictures came out spectacular. The facial expressions, dance moves, laughs and sweet moments were ALL captured perfectly. She's honest, detail-oriented and a true expert. I'd recommend her to anyone!

    Cheryl was such a pleasure to work with and we could not have been happier with our beautiful photos. Cheryl was upbeat and fun to have as a wedding day photographer. Her creative eye and attention to detail made our pictures stand out. She was organized and made sure to get the shots that we wanted to capture. Cheryl seamlessly blended into the crowd. I highly recommend working with Cheryl for an outstanding experience all around.

    Cheryl is, quite simply, the best, and a pleasure to work with. Our wedding ceremony and celebration party were months apart, and she covered them both with aplomb. She was tireless, but unobtrusive. Of course, the proof is, as they say, in the proofs. We asked that Cheryl concentrate on candids, rather than set-piece shots, and she came through magnificently. The final album is one of real memories captured, rather than attendees merely memorialized. It tells our story, with great production values. We cannot recommend Cheryl Richards more highly!

    Cheryl is extremely easy-going, friendly, and made me feel very comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera (which is no small feat!). She is very efficiency and took beautiful photos in a very short period of time. It was wonderful working with her and I highly recommend her!

    Cheryl was so accommodating and professional to work with! She stayed until the very end of our wedding, capturing all moments. Our wedding pictures were stunning. She is a true perfectionist and will spend time with you, making sure all the pictures are to her liking. You can tell she is dedicated to both her work and making sure she captures all moments of your special day. I would absolutely hire her for other events and recommend her to other individuals.

    Cheryl Richards is New England’s premiere wedding photographer for a number of reasons. First and foremost, her superb eye and unparalleled talent with the camera. Secondly, she is as unobtrusive as can be, and yet she can mix and mingle with charm and grace if necessary. Third, she is one of the world’s kindest and most eager to please people. Simply put, she’s the best.

    I just want to say thank you for being the best wedding photographer we could ever ask for. From the moment we met you to do our engagement photos you were so friendly and encouraging and I immediately felt at ease. And then at the wedding you were so calm, organized, and professional that I knew you would do a fantastic job. You allowed us to enjoy our day and yet still managed to take some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen. I am so happy with how the pictures turned out. You managed to capture such genuine emotions and I hardly noticed you were there most of the day ( I mean this in the best possible day). You have given us such beautiful timeless pictures that we can enjoy for the rest of our lives and for that I am extremely grateful. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer and we are so happy that it was you! Thank you so much!

    Cheryl has earned her "Best of Boston" status ten times over. Her energy and professional demeanor are only overshadowed by her warmth. Her "eye" is elegant and intimate - she doesn't miss a thing.

    Cheryl captured our special day like nobody else could. From the day we met her, we knew she was the one. She made us feel completely at ease. We loved that she was not intrusive like some photographers and most of the time we did not know she was photographing us. Her vision is amazing and we absolutely love our wedding photos.

    What we loved most about working with Cheryl for our engagement and wedding was her ability to capture impeccable images along with the precise emotions that we and our guests felt in each moment. Every photo is capable of being a centerpiece and we get to relive such a momentous occasion every time we look at the album. We cannot imagine working with another photographer after such a great experience.

    Thank you Cheryl for giving us a lifetime of memories to share with our loved ones. We look forward to working with you in the future.
    Troy and Nicole Crichlow

    Timeless, elegant photos to be treasured forever!

    When it came to my wedding photos I knew that I wanted to find a photographer whose past work showed that they were a well-rounded professional with experience outside of weddings. With her decades-long career in weddings, editorial, and portraits, Cheryl’s portfolio exceeded my vision.

    When we met in person I knew it was love! From the first moment, Cheryl delivers a premium experience and product by cultivating a personal relationship. She made my now-husband and I so comfortable and confident with her sweet demeanor and absolute dedication to her craft.

    She is especially adept at capturing the human emotions of the day, and after all is said and done, that is what the wedding is all about! I am able to feel the energy of our guests when I look at our gallery and it transports me right back to the moment.

    In an age of over-filtered, “Instagram-first” images, Cheryl’s work proves that wedding photos are meant to be timeless, classic, and one of a kind. I know our wedding images will be treasured forever and I am so grateful to Cheryl for sharing her talent. I can not recommend her strongly enough!
