“Doug is an incredible wedding photographer in the Boston area, and we could not recommend him more highly to capture your special day. A few reasons we were so happy to work with Doug:
1. He is an exceptionally talented photographer. Doug documented all the moments we were hoping for, as well as many beautiful candid shots of us and our guests. Even with tricky weather (rainy day) and last-minute schedule changes (e.g., some family members not coming on time for group photos), he stayed calm and adaptable and delivered a wonderful set of photos that truly captured the emotions of the day.
2. He is skilled at working with people. During our couple and family / friend group portraits he provided just enough guidance to help us feel comfortable without anything feeling staged. This made us feel like we used the time together effectively, while making the photos feel natural and joyful.
3. He is comfortable navigating different cultural and religious contexts. Doug had experience shooting a Catholic wedding, which was tremendously helpful for us, and he was very respectful of our requests (for example, no photography of guests receiving the Eucharist). We also told him about small modifications to the ceremony reflecting South Indian traditions, and he made sure to capture those beautifully.
4. He is a great communicator. Doug was easy to reach via text and email and consistently quick to respond to our questions before and after the wedding. His website clearly explains his photography philosophy, which made us confident from the start that he was the right fit.
5. His pricing is extremely fair. We were planning a low-key wedding on a budget in the Boston area, and Doug’s pricing made it possible for us to capture our day without overspending, while still receiving high-quality, professional photos.
We are so grateful we chose Doug and would enthusiastically recommend him to any couple looking for a thoughtful, skilled, and reliable wedding photographer.
