Rob Rickman

Contact Rob Rickman

With over two decades under his belt as a professional photographer Rob is one of Fiji's most renowned and sought-after photographers. As a former graphic designer, Rob's distinct creative eye plays heavily in how he composes each photo.  
 
Rob has published 20 photographic books in Fiji, Australia and Germany; a testimony to his love of travel and extensive portfolio.  
 
While serious and meticulous in his work, Rob's nature can only be described as 'total island vibe'; relaxed & easy going - a trait he says, he gets from his Fijian side of the family.  
 
Rob draws much of his inspiration from the lifestyle of the Fijian people, their predisposition to happiness, and finds joy in capturing the essence of the day-to-day Fiji experience.  
 
Rob and his wife of 19 years are parents to 5 beautiful island children; "it's always an honour to not only witness, but document the precious moments as a couple starts their journey together as husband & wife.

Where are you located? Do you charge a travel fee for weddings not in your location?

I am based in Fiji, but am able to shoot anywhere else in the Pacific and beyond.

How long have you been in business? How many weddings have you photographed as the main photographer?

I have been in business since 1992! I started my own graphic design studio while I was still in high school, and as part of the job, had to pick up a camera and shoot commercially for a number of years. It didn’t take me long to discover a love for travel photography, and it took a fearless workshop for me to find I found joy in weddings too.

Describe your "style" of wedding photography.

Candid, real-life moments; capturing the precious moments of the day between families and friends with only minimal manipulation/posing.

What's the typical wedding coverage package that you offer? What is the price?

Half day USD$1,500 and full day USD$2,500 packages. I also offer 'follow-you' multi-day packages to capture the unique story of your whole destination wedding experience.

Do you have a studio where we can meet in-person?

I can definitely Skype, as well as FaceTime or Facebook Message/Chat.

What are your professional degrees, credentials, affiliations? Have you taken any recent educational workshops or classes?

I’m totally an autodidact, or self-taught, as there were no classes available to me when I was growing up in Fiji. I have held my own workshops/classes to pass on the knowledge I’ve collected over the years.

Is there anything else you'd like to share about yourself?

If I'm not taking photos, I'm having kids! Or so it seems…I'm a father of 5 beautiful children – who I can’t wait to share my love of photography with… as soon as one of them shows an interest!
