Authentic People Photography for
Real People, Real Stories
Whether it’s your wedding, your business or branding portrait, or your family at home, my people photography is, not surprisingly, all about people — capturing genuine moments, natural expressions, and the stories that matter most. Every session is relaxed, guided, and tailored around you.

Meet Your
Photographer
Hi, I’m Dick — the people photographer behind the lens. Whether I’m capturing weddings, portraits, or headshots, my goal is always the same: to help you feel relaxed, confident, and genuinely yourself in front of the camera.
Why Choose Dick Lloyd Photography
Every photo session is built around connection, confidence, and creativity. As a Harrogate-based people photographer, I bring years of experience in portrait lighting. This includes both natural and artificial lighting to create flattering, true-to-life images in any setting.
I’m equally happy to arrange photo sessions outdoor, in your own home, or in a professional studio. For actors or models, I often recommend using a professional studio in the outskirts of Harrogate , The Harrogate Studio, which has plenty of space, great lighting and some really useful backgrounds, including an “infinity cove”.
My background includes mentoring and encouraging other photographers and this has strengthened my technical understanding and attention to detail, ensuring consistent quality across every shoot.
I’m a proud member of the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers.
Whether you’re booking a family portrait, a professional headshot, or wedding coverage, you’ll benefit from guidance that helps you relax in front of the camera and enjoy the experience.
My approach combines genuine storytelling with polished presentation so your images feel natural yet refined — memories and moments that you’ll be proud to share for years to come.
