I am so thrilled I decided to take my portraits with Lisa Damico! I was a bit nervous because it had been over ten years since the last time I took a professional picture. I always worried about taking professional photos because of the staged and uncomfortable feeling, but Lisa has completely changed my perspective of doing so!
Lisa guided me through the planning process and made it as seamless as I could of hoped for. She was helpful in every regard during our pre-session skype call - answering all of my questions, easing concerns, and recommending color palettes for clothing, jewelry, hair, makeup - all of which I was nervous about having to choose.
For the actual session, Lisa was not only a complete professional, but made the process fun - which really helped me open up in front of the camera. I never had to doubt what was happening or the next steps because Lisa knew exactly how to handle the entire process - from poses, to outfit changes, etc. From starting with professional shots, to blasting Beyonce and using a fan during the more fun outfits/shots, it was a great afternoon that honestly flew by. She had ideas for poses ready and asked for you suggestions and ideas as well.
Lisa also took pictures of my boyfriend and I together and just as with our individual shots, she knew exactly what to do and how to make us comfortable.
Many of my friends asked about my amazing pictures and I have already been recommending them to go to Lisa - and I will continue to do so. Overall, I walked away with amazing professional and more playful photos of myself and a wonderful, easy, and fun overall experience.
I wanted good pictures for on-line dating and also for linked-in and my jewelry site. I wanted photos that reflected my personality and style but looked natural, not posed. A friend of mine raved about Lisa so I checked out her website. I liked her pictures which were so alive and appealing. I liked her well-thought out program and process. I had high expectations but Lisa met all of them. I enjoyed the entire program from picking out the outfits, the styling the day of the shoot, the day of the shoot itself, and the joy of seeing all those wonderful pictures. I immediately posted one of the photos as my profile picture on facebook and got two comments immediately: "Wowzer" and "It is so YOU!" Priceless!
