Doug Downes - Photography

My interest in photography began over 30 years ago. I enjoy the challenge of capturing my subjects with a unique feel or look and am always looking for the effect of natural light and the impact of composition.
What I love most about photography is working with people and the ability to capture a mood or a personality. My ability to make people relax and feel comfortable is a key ingredient to getting the right shot. I love the challenge of creating the story of a wedding day, of capturing personalities in my portraits, and of expressing moods through my creative work

As you will see from the examples on this site I work in both color and black and white. I am also open to experimenting with some special effects. I hope you enjoy the photographs you see here.

Please contact me to discuss your wedding, portrait sitting, or other project.
