New Zealand Photographer & Camera/Tech Reviewer



Photography

Hi, I’m Richard, a photographer based in Auckland, New Zealand. I’ve been working professionally for almost 20 years, specializing in Wedding and Event Photography. Along the way, I’ve had the honor of winning a few awards in Wedding and Portrait photography.

When I’m not shooting weddings or events, you’ll find me out on the streets, capturing those spontaneous, beautiful moments in everyday life. I’ve always had a passion for street photography. I had my first public exhibition showcasing my work in 2017

Tech Review

I’m also a tech reviewer, having written dozens of camera reviews for magazines like D-Photo, Pro Photographer, and NZ Geographic in New Zealand, along with a few other websites. Recently, I’ve been focusing on creating camera, tech reviews and photography guides on my YouTube channel. You can check it out here: The Real Richard Wong.

My YouTube channel has 50000+ subcribers, 500+ videos, and over 12 Million views

Here are some of the recent videos on my Youtube channel
