We had the privilegeof 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 theday, makes you feel like you are in it again. Her eye is second to none

Cheryl is simply a master of her art, and a delight to work with. She's been in the business for over 25 years (back when she developed her own prints). Her eye is impeccable and she captures the depth of character and personality that jump out of her photographs. She did a set of head-shots for me as well as several black and white candids that are some of the favorite photos of myself EVER!! I've gotten so many comments on my head-shots and how 'alive' they look. That's all Cheryl. The photo-shoot was a blast and she made me feel so comfortable. It'a also such a beautiful thing to see someone

I"ve hired Cheryl Richards multiple times to capture the important moments in my life. She is so professional and artistic and is able to capture the most beautiful moments effortlessly. I have been blown away by her work that I've recently hired her to do my wedding. I could not think of anyone else to photograph my wedding. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer in Newport and beyond.
