I'm Doug. A freelance photographer based in San Francisco's East Bay and fulfilling briefs nationwide. Been whirling cameras for over 20 years. A focused skill aging smooth like fine French cheese. I specialize in portrait, reportage, and editorial in SF Bay, Downeast Maine, and abroad. I'm known for a warm low-key vibe and exacting camera + body agility. A go-to photographer for many a brand, artist, and business both in the studio and on location.

You can find me in my Alameda portrait studio, the webz, on a longboard blurring atop California pavement, or dawning the journey of surfing.
