[TESTIMONIAL] "...he knows how to draw your authentic self out..."
Building a solid rapport with your photographer is essential to capturing genuine moments and natural expressions.
When you feel comfortable with the person behind the camera, you’re more likely to let your guard down, allowing your true self to shine through. This connection is what transforms a simple photo into a powerful piece of visual storytelling that resonates with your audience.
It’s not just about clicking the shutter at the right time - it’s about creating an environment where you feel seen, understood, and at ease.
A great portrait doesn’t just happen by chance; it’s the result of a collaborative process where trust and communication play a pivotal role. When your photographer understands your personality, brand, and what you want to convey, they can guide you in ways that feel natural, not forced.
This is what leads to those magical, candid moments that truly capture who you are. Here’s what speaker Scott Halford had to say about his experience working with me...
“I have worked with a considerable number of photographers in both my television and speaking careers. They were all ‘just fine’ to work with and I received business headshot photos that were ‘just fine.’
And then I met John DeMato.
The photo shoot together ended up being one of the most relaxed, fun days of work - ever.
He knows how to draw your authentic self out in the pictures and removes that icky, self-conscious feeling of being posed and feeling wooden.
The result was a LARGE set of headshots that felt like me, grabbed my essence and put it on photographic display, and made my public persona look modern and relevant.
John DeMato is an enormous value and well worth both time and investment. If you ask me how he did, l'd say, "He was just fantastic." Highly recommended.”
Thanks, Scott - it was a good time creating magic with you :)
