Richard Williams
Born in Birmingham, England Richard Williams has spent most of his working life in England and France as a commercial photographer, building up a successful partnership with advertising and PR firms. For ten years the Diva Photography Project has been Richard's antidote to the pressure of producing commercial images and concepts. It evolved initially out of his frustration with what he sees as the "commercialization of the nude", but is now much more about defining the nude in its context. So far there are more than 5000 images in the project. Many have appeared in exhibitions and some have been published. 

Most of the early images were taken in the studio with his Hasselblad 6x6cm, but recent film developments have enabled daylight 35mm images to have the same texture and quality that used to be produced only with medium format. Most of the images shown here were taken during September and October 2000 in a converted barn in Deven, England. Natural light was used wherever possible, and a 1.5m softbox was used to augment the light when needed. 

Richard's current preferred cameras are Canon EOS 1 and 5, with 28mm F2.8, 50mm F1.4 and 85mm F1.8 lenses. Black and White film is usually Ilford Delta 100, 400 and 3200, color film is usually Fuji Provia or MS100/1000. The Hasselblad only comes out on special occasions.
