Working with Damien during our engagement shoot and for pre-wedding photos was amazing! A true professional, Damien has an amazing eye for capturing unique and original shots, while making the process relaxing and fun for everyone. I know we’ll be showing off both the engagement video/slideshow and poster print he created for years to come! You definitely can't go wrong with Damien!

I selected Damien Smith to photograph my parents 50th anniversary, let me say that we were not disappointed! Damien and has staff arrived on time and were completely professional. He was even able to handle my stubborn uncle who shadowed Damien the entire day. (Sorry Damien) LOL! My parents were sooooo happy when they received the pictures, and so was I!!! My brothers and I shared the cost for his services as a gift to our parents. I can only say that I believe we received way more value then we paid for. I highly recommend Damien Smith to anyone in need of a wedding photographer, or in my case, a anniversary photographer. :) Thanks Damien!

It was my pleasure! Your parents and family were a pleasure to work with! Wishing them many more happy years of marriage! ~;o)

Professional and attentive in every way, especially in the ways that count. Made me and my wife very comfortable in both the wedding and the engagement sessions that preceded it.The results were beautiful photographs that will last forever.

Damien smith was amazingly wonderful for our big day. I had already had an engangement portrait done but it was nothing like what HE did with my fiance and I. Damien was very professional and he was extremely flexible with our schedule for he did our sitting on the weekend of the 4th of July. I absolutely loved my picture montage with some video he added in there. The video was words that my husband and I aid to each other but had not heard until the wedding day.I truly and delighfully recommend damien. He was Wonderful..Sincerely, Martha

Vendor response to review

I was very fortunate to have selected DSP as the photographer for my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration. With such an important formal event at hand, it was important for me to have every aspect of the event documented appropriately. My parents still look at the photographs and smile every time they see them. They are able to re-live the celebration every single time and they keep commenting about how good they looked!-Katrina of Los Angeles

Vendor response to review

Katrina,It was totally my pleasure! You, your parents, and your entire family were a complete pleasure to work with, and I'm glad to have had the honor of being a part of that very special day! I wish them many more happy anniversaries! ~;o)

Can't say enough about Damien's services. You really get what you pay for, and he was worth EVERY CENT. There are some wedding things you can pay less for, and it's "whatever," but there are other things you really can't be cheap on, and wedding pictures is one of those things - - because you will NEVER get those moments back. We have absolutely NO regrets on Damien. He went over and above - - the extra mile - - ALL THAT.

Vendor response to review

Hi Savannah,You're to kind! :) I'm glad that I was able to provide you with excellent service and meet all your expectations! Hope you two can make it to our Christmas party next year.~Damien Smith

Damien Smith photography provided service on a level that I didn't know existed. He took engagement pictures with poses of my bride and I that I later saw in new editions of wedding and fashion magazines 3 to 4 months later. My wife and I were so impressed with our engagement photos that we then hired Damien Smith photography to be our wedding photographer. Damien's creativity, style, and personality are a huge plus; especially since I don't like to take pictures. He is always professional and his services felt more like a friend doing you a favor than you paying him for a service. Damien Smith photography has given my wife and I studio photography without being crammed into a small studio room. Damien Smith photography will give you studio-like pictures in any environment and I personally choose to use this company for all future events.

Damien and his wife were amazing! I had both of them snapping photos when my wedding party and I were getting dressed all the way to the very end of our wedding. They took photos of the wedding that my videographer did not get because they left before the wedding ended. He listened to the ideas that I wanted and did not want. Love this duo!

Vendor response to review

Hi Desiree,Thanks for the excellent review! Your wedding in Louisiana was sooo much fun!!! We wish you many many years of love and happiness! :)~Damien Smith

Vendor recommendation from Beverly Harris Weddings & Events

I've had the pleasure to work with Damien Smith Photography not long ago. Damien was very professional and on top of his game. He took lots of photos. All I can remember is snap, snap, snap! :) I definitely recommend that you hire Damien Smith Photography.

Vendor recommendation from Blessings All Around (Mobile Officiant)

What a great group of photographers. In a constant state of motion, they captured not only the traditional photos (vows, rings, kiss), but managed to get the beautiful raw moments as well. When the couple gave a loving glance - they got it. Most brides are looking for that. I will gladly work with them again. Great personality - they made everyone, including me, feel very relaxed and comfortable.
