Our story is one we are so proud of…what started as a dream to become an entrepreneur became reality when our founder Howard Douglas was laid off from his career of 13 years during The Great Recession. What should’ve been an incredibly hard time for us turned into a defining moment in our lives and our careers. We stepped out on faith and decided that there was no time like the present to go after our dreams…
Fast forward to now, we work with clientele from all types of different industries – government officials, health care providers, non-profits, schools, coaches, etc. We desire to surround ourselves with positive people and brands. Their mission has to be one we can get behind. This is all part of our authentic process. When we believe in our clients, we can help their target clients believe as well!
Life is too short to be impersonal. We get to know our clients. Form lasting relationships. That is the D2D difference. This is why over 75% of our business comes from word-of-mouth referrals. This is a huge deal to us. One that we don’t take lightly. Because of this, we always strive to stay on top of the latest technology trends, taking new courses and learning from other experts in the industry. We want our clients to be successful…this is our motivation.
So, if you’re looking for a little more than a videographer or photographer, let’s talk!
Bonnie-Love is our resident “Make Sh*t Happen” Girl! Her empathetic nature allows her to really “get” her clients which creates cool vibes and great synergy. No matter if she’s directing a video shoot, behind the lens or conceptualizing a website, Bonnie-Love’s 15+ years of marketing, management, beauty and fashion are always in play. Always looking at a project from multiple angles, through multiple lenses (literally and figuratively) is what she attributes to her many “happy” clients.
In addition to running D2D Creative, Bonnie-Love serves as the lead photographer at our sister company D2D Focus serving families and individuals in the DMV area and beyond.
The “Get ‘er Done Man”. Not a single person has come across Howard’s path that he hasn’t made smile. His laid back personality and “no problems too hard to fix” nature, puts all of his clients at ease. In fact, Howard has journeyed with some of his clients for more than 20 years – back when he was the local “flyer guy”. These days, Howard stays mostly behind the scenes, busy editing videos and designing sites but he does peek his head from behind the monitor from time to time.
