"I like doing projects with Richard.  He's not only smart and creative--more than most people I know--but once you shake hands he comes through every time, no matter what obstacles come up."

"As a trial lawyer. I have had the good fortune in my lifetime to travel all over this wonderful planet of ours. On my travels, I have always enjoyed the best travel accommodations available. As an amateur photographer, I have had the good fortune to really get to know Richard after meeting and traveling with him on various national and international treks. If there is anything I am certain of it is that Richard will deliver the most memorable and impressive workshop experiences available on the market... Richard has introduced me, as well as other photo enthusiasts, to many of the world's most accomplished photographers, since so many of them are an integral part of Richard's personal life. Becoming personal friends with some of these photographers as a result of going on treks with them was a side benefit I had not expected. My schedule permitting, I will be one of the first to sign on to a trek designed and operated by Richard, wherever it is headed."

"Apple ran an ad a few years ago, “To the Crazy Ones,” which is an ode to people like Richard.  And I am happy to be a part of his craziness, because I know that the people who are crazy enough to think they can do things differently, are the ones who do."

- Joseph Jurson, Professional Photographer
