Richard —
Think less, live more.

Richard's journey into photography and design began over two decades ago when his father passed down his film camera, sparking a passion for documenting and capturing moments. His curiosity as a kid has led to various explorations with creative mediums - resulting in a self made career. His professional photography career took off during high school with urban exploration photography featuring unseen abandoned subway tunnels and scaling Manhattan's tallest skyscrapers. The photos captured garnered various sponsorships from fashion labels and lifestyle brands.

After honing his skills with a BFA in Film & Fashion at Pratt Institute, he immersed himself into developing a brand focused on a diverse range of artistic mediums including photography, filmmaking, graphic design, post-production, and garment manufacturing. Not one to be confined to a single pursuit, Richard currently thrives in commercial photography and videography, creating online content, and running various e-commerce businesses.

His latest projects delve into themes of youth culture, entrepreneurship, and beyond, showcasing his diverse creative interests and relentless pursuit of self-expression.

To the question "who is Richard Lau?" the answer is simple: someone who doesn’t settle for less.
