Want something a bit more than a headshot?

We have you covered. Many of my clients have regular main-platform speaking engagements, book jackets and other public appearances that require a bit more visual information than a typical headshot.

Make their job easier and improve your chances of getting the role by having a solid portfolio of headshot images that reflect the range of characters you want to play and emotions you want to convey.

The Experience

FAQs

  • Once you’ve booked and paid for your session you’ll get an email confirmation with wardrobe and accessory guidance.

    Generally dark and / or neutral colors work best for headshots, though sometimes bright bold colors can be fun for certain applications. Bring a range of wardrobe options and we’ll experiment and see what works best for you. Remember though, if it isn’t in my studio I can’t shoot it!

  • I do not recommend makeup for men.

    For women, however, professional hair and makeup services can make a significant difference in image quality. The makeup is done with a light but very intentional touch. For reference, all the women on my website engaged my pro hair and makeup services.

    I have several hair and makeup artists I work with and their fee starts at $400. This is in addition to session and image fees.

    If you would like to engage their services please contact me prior to booking your session so I can coordinate our 3 schedules. Plan on about an hour for hair and makeup in my studio prior to the session and then about another hour for our shoot.

  • Yes, your session and image fees include basic color correction and retouching. This may typically include skin tone adjustments, removal of fly away hairs and blemishes, lint on clothing, etc.

    Heavy retouching, which I strongly advise against, may incur an additional fee.

  • Your session fee, which must be pre-paid upon booking on this site, can be paid with Visa, Master Card, American Express or PayPal.

    Additional images may be paid for at the time of your session with the above credit cards, Venmo, PayPal or cash.

  • Retouching usually takes about two weeks. Once I get them back from my retoucher, I make final adjustments and get them yo you within 24 hours via email.

  • My entire process is designed to help you look your best!

    It starts with wardrobe selection, then pro hair and make up for the ladies and then lighting, posing and expression. The look I go for is something I call “approachable confidence.” If you’ve spent any time at all on my site you probably already have a good idea what that looks like!

    I’ll coach and direct you through our shoot and you’ll see your images get better and better through out our session.

    Damon made me feel comfortable and I really could see the difference between shots, he was really focused on the micro expressions. He really pulled the rabbit from the hat! He went above and beyond my expectations and the results are stunning!!!

    Damon was a true pleasure to work with. The shoot was swift, professional, friendly, and it delivered way past our expectations. We would happily go back to Damon if we needed additional photos, and would highly recommend him!!!!

Hi, My name is Damon, and if you’re still here(!!) perhaps you’ll find it helpful to know a bit more about me.

On D-Day 1945, my grandfather jumped out of a B-29 and went on to become a decorated combat photographer in the Battle of the Bulge. His son—my dad—ran the Macy’s catalog photo studio, where I grew up surrounded by lights, lenses, and the smell of darkroom chemicals..

Before stepping behind the camera myself, I worked as a marketing exec and leadership consultant—so I know firsthand how powerful a single image can be in shaping perception and making a lasting impression.

When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me making music, chasing roads on a bike, or diving with an underwater rig in hand.
