I have hired Doug numerous times to photograph my upper end listings. His work included drone photography and creating a final video for online marketing. I find him very professional and easy to work with. He aims to please making sure the final presentation is perfect. My clients have been very satisfied and I receive numerous compliments as to how nice my listings look online. I highly recommend Doug for all your photography needs. You will not be disappointed.

Jodi J., Communications Director
Doug Mason is one of the kindest and most generous humans — and wildly talented photographers — I've ever worked with. He's been a secret ingredient to making MASS MoCA look good for years, including as the producer of the museum's new Sol LeWitt 3D Tour.
Doug was always among the most reliable partners in our rolodex. His enthusiasm for the work, both his photography and the museum's ambitious program, is an immense asset. One of the things I admire most about Doug is his natural approach to making folks who aren't regular photo subjects feel comfortable in front of his lens.
Doug also has a terrific knack for valuing equally all people are lucky enough to work with or be photographed by him. In the MASS MoCA sphere, people who appreciated and admired Doug's approach, as well as his work, stretched from our security team to our in-house photographers, from our festival producers, to our museum director, to Annie Lennox.
Thank you for always making us look (and feel!) so great, Doug.

Photography is a license to explore the world deeply.

Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I can do studio work and retouching remotely, assuming i can pick up the product or have it shipped to me, or delivered digitally.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I can do studio work and 3D scanning on my own, with a mask if on site of course, so the time we spend together can be very limited if desired. I'm also a first responder, so am fully vaccinated.

3D scanning.
I use "Matterport" and other 3D scanning techniques to create virtual models and worlds. The models and tours are accurate to a quarter of an inch, anything in the final scan is measurable and it's possible to capture high resolution images or video from within.
