I hired Doug for my engagement and he could not have been a better choice!

He did a great job communicating before the job, which made it easy to plan the perfect surprise proposal!

He also went above and beyond in turning around a number of fantastic photos on the day of the engagement for us to use and share with all our loved ones.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful our experience with Doug was, getting head shots updated for my teenager to attend a theater workshop in NYC. We reached out to Doug last minute for help and he not only went out of his way to get a shoot set up for us on just a few days notice, but the pictures were incredible! More...

I am so thrilled and pleased with the photos that Doug took for me! I am a law student and wanted a simple but professional headshot. I went to the studio which was spacious, modern, and very peaceful. Throughout the entire process, Doug was responsive and attentive to detail, and always checked in with me to get my thoughts. The turnaround time to receive the photos was very fast and he gave me many wonderful options to choose from.

I will be recommending Doug to all my friends and classmates who need headshots or any type of professional photography in the future.

Event & Party Photography

We planned our wedding ceremony to be very intimate, yet in an outdoor space on a mid-November afternoon. We searched for a strong photographer to document the occasion for us. Doug's response to our request was prompt and confident, communicating what he could do for us within our budget, perfectly. He put our mind at ease, immediately. There were minor changes to the location and time which Doug took in stride- again- putting our minds at ease.
Doug arrived early to the location. His professionalism experience was quickly apparent. He quietly greeted everyone involved and got a take on all the participants and the surroundings while our small group gathered. He took beautiful photos of the ceremony as well as candid photos leading up to and gently but confidently took control when the time came for the photo shoot after the nuptials.
We're grateful to Doug for not only artistically creating beautiful memories for us to cherish, but also for being such an important and stable part of our wedding plans.
We highly recommend Doug Hyde for your next photo shoot.

Wedding Photography

We hired Doug to photograph my daughter’s wedding. He showed up punctually and was so friendly and easy to work with that we felt comfortable right away. He took pictures of the bridal party and family, including our dogs, and then headed to the wedding venue where he got tons of beautiful pictures of the ceremony and reception. He was so quiet and unobtrusive while he took the pictures I actually forgot he was there, which was exactly what we wanted. He got the proofs to us in record time and we were just so pleased with them. I highly recommend Doug! More...

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Doug. He is very flexible, reasonably priced and VERY EASY to work with. He was the perfect compliment to my daughters wedding. All of our photos came out perfect and we are very pleased with them. We had an indoor beach wedding but he was able to get some outside shots on the beach that came out amazing as well.

I highly recommend working with Doug for your event.

When we arrived on time, Doug was already there, scouting out the morning light and best shooting locations. Doug listened to our requests, was open to our ideas and projects a professional, friendly, relaxed demeanor. His response time and delivery of our photos was quick, and it is easy to order photos and download from the webpage. I was happy with the results and would do it again. More...

If I could give Doug 10 stars, I would. Doug was a dream to work with. He was prompt, early to arrive, extremely diligent and responsible, and very professional. Wedding days are always hectic (from what I hear) and I didn’t even have a chance to have one worry over photography. Doug was that excellent. In addition to all of this, he provided a very fast turnaround time for my photos and video. Both of which were exceptional. Also, being from an Orthodox church, Doug was very respectful of everything and even met with the priest to discuss the technicalities of everything in the church. I couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience. That was a gift in and of itself. Doug is awesome! And we are so, so appreciative and will definitely be using him for future events.

Thanks Doug!!!!

Overall just an outstanding experience. I cannot wait to work with him in the near future.

Also, I don’t want to forget to mention that he speaks Spanish. Even though we speak English it was so nice to be able to communicate in both languages.

Muchas gracias por el excelente trabajo.

My daughter needed new headshots and the photographer we've always worked with moved. I found Doug on the web and he was quick to reply. EVERY. TIME.
My daughter (a teenager) is VERY picky so I had to ask Doug a million times to change things up - - he was VERY patient w/all my requests, did everything I asked for and worked diligently to be sure we (my daughter) was happy.
We'll def. work w/him again. :)

Doug was AMAZING. Not only did he provide an instant review of the photos he had taken during the photoshoot, but he worked amazingly in collaboration for photo and pose ideas. I’ve never enjoyed working with a photographer as much as I enjoyed working with Doug. He made it easy to be a model! :) I ended up using his amazing photographs for social media content. (P.S: they brought in tons of likes!) More...

Q&As

Big questions are:
What? Why type of shoot? Be specific. headshots for online media; senior photos for yearbooks; engagement photos; family photos. I do all these.
Where? Indoors studio-style or outdoors.
When? My schedule if flexible but I am generally booked ahead of time. Can you shoot just on weekends? Can you shoot during the week? Specific date?
Themes or Ideas: Now is the season of fall outdoor shoots. Next will be Christmas. Pinterest is a great source of ideas.
Budget: sorry to say but professional photographers are not cheap. Expect to spend at least $200 per hour.

I've loved photography nearly all my life. I've been selling my photos for five years. I've progressively built the skills and equipment to be a full-service photographer focused on people photography. Many say I have a natural eye. To this I've added formal study of lighting at Rhode Island School of Design. I've taken courses in editing and post-processing. Most importantly, I've been shooting intensively over the last three years, and working with people for that same amount of time. I love the art. I love the people I get to interact with -- people of all ages, backgrounds, races, and interests. All are living their lives, are part of families, most have love and faith, all make me feel optimistic about this world.

I love photography and love sharing my skills and abilities. I'm blessed that people like and appreciate the work that I do.

I am passionate about photography. I want to capture special moments and pass these back to my clients. I love the art of photography. I know what I am doing.

I shoot both indoors studio-style and outdoors. My indoor space is in Westwood MA, just south of Boston along 95 / 128 opposite Dedham. But I also am not shy about traveling around New England to meet clients and take photos.

I personally am as vaccinated as I can get.
Photography has managed through the pandemic as there is space between the client and the photographer.
Much photography is done outdoors. Even indoors, there is space.
If anyone wishes me to wear a mask during a photoshoot, I'm more than happy to do so.
Fortunately, it seems the Covid situation is improving.

Services

Gather your family together and capture memories. Have family pictures that can be hung on the wall. Create a special holiday card. Remember a baptism. Have a photographer when family members visit from afar.

Our engagement will start with a short conversation.
- Who are all the people?
- What individual photos are you hoping for?
- What location makes most sense?

Location is most typically one of these three:
- A convenient outdoor location such as a nearby park.
- An indoor location I might know of or have worked in before.
- At the home of those looking for the family photoshoot.

Graduation is a wonderful event, recognizing a significant accomplishment and milestone. For high school graduates, the next step may be going away to college. For those leaving college, next step can be a career and a totally independent life. Every graduate is different. My goal will be to capture memories unique and special for each and every graduate.

I photograph professionals and deliver photos that can be used for a company or business, a political campaign, a website, or for social media?

Are you a fashionista or lover of the camera?

Fashion and glamour photoshoots can be fun and exciting. Being in front of the camera gets the adrenalin going. If you are serious about modeling -- or in related fields such as acting or performing – perhaps you need to refresh, update or broaden your portfolio.

Within the broad categories of fashion and glamour, there are lots of variations of photoshoots. You can shoot in-studio our outdoors, urban or in nature. Fashion can be elegant, hip, goth, cosplay, from serious to fanciful.

If this is of interest, begin by considering kind of photoshoots would be most interesting and exciting. Pinterest is a great site for inspiration and for saving ideas. Let’s talk it through.
