About Douglas James Studio

Capturing the Art of Connection

At Douglas James Studio, every image begins with intention, a desire to create something meaningful, timeless, and deeply personal. Based in Sarasota, Florida and serving clients across the U.S., we specialize in crafting portraits and wedding imagery that go beyond documentation, they tell your story with artistry, emotion, and purpose.

What began as a small creative studio on the East Coast has evolved into a full-service photography brand built on authentic connection and refined visual storytelling. Whether it’s a romantic wedding on Siesta Key, an elegant bridal session, a heartfelt family portrait, or a fine art creation, every session is guided by the same philosophy: to capture who you are in the most beautiful light possible.

Our Philosophy

• Excellence in Every Detail: From lighting to composition, posing to post-production, every step of the process is handled with precision, care, and artistry.
