Boudoir photograph of woman lying on a kitchen counter

Hi, I’m Doug

I live in leafy south east London and have been shooting for 32 years. If I’m not shooting boudoir, I’m probably photographing street and landscape scenes in Europe or Asia. I also love surfing (but not in the UK 🥶).

I get a real thrill from helping people who are trying to improve themselves, and that’s why I love boudoir photography. Working with someone who’s nervous about their appearance and helping them find victory over those voices of self-doubt — for me there’s nothing more rewarding than that. Let’s unleash your inner lioness!
