When I first saw Damion's work, I could instantly see that his attention to shooting the fine details and showing the event in its best light was his strong suit - from showcasing my decor to shooting the guest interaction and the portraits of the couple. The ability to shoot all three equally well is the trifecta of event photography that not every photographer can achieve. Damion has achieved that and excelled at it.
I trust Damion & Julie so infinitely that I use them for my own personal work as well. Damion has shot my personal family portrait sessions for me, personally including my own head shots for my business & the professional head shots for my daughter, professional head shots for me and my very own wedding. There is nobody else I would trust. These sessions and the resulting art are full of life, personality and are something that we will treasure for a lifetime. He's captured a moment in time with style & grace.
From a personality perspective, Damion is funny and witty making him awesome to be around. He is dedicated and devoted to not only being an expert in his field but also educating others to achieve the greatness that he has. His spirit and love for the profession shines through in everything he does.
Damion has been a huge part of many turning point in my life, getting married, having children ext.. He was such a pleasure to work with, very fast with returning photos and just an awesome guy. His photographs caught some of the most incredible moments in our life, that we will have forever.
Damion shot my wedding and numerous events that I have done the lighting design for. He was an amazing presence on our wedding day, we wouldn't have trusted anyone else.
The results were absolutely amazing. I was blown away by how tasteful and perfect the pictures were!
It was an absolute pleasure working with Damion - we will work with him next time we are in the Bay Area - and would highly recommend him to others.

We hired Damion to photograph our wedding. He was wonderful from the very first time we met him through to the time we received our final product. To say the photos were the best I have seen would imply that they could be compared to others - they cannot, and neither can Damion. His professionalism, amazing spirit, and creative expertise are unparalleled. There are many photographers with talent, but Damion truly has a gift. We are thrilled with the product, and Damion and his team were a joy to work with. Everyone was so skillful and everything was done on time and with great care. I cannot recommend Damion highly enough.
Damion's a sharp lenser with a great eye and an engaging personality. He's very flexible with fast-changing requirements and a wide variety of clients.
My husband and I hired Damion and Julie as the photographers for our wedding in 2012. We were extremely happy with our final result and would definetly use them again. They are amazingly talented people and that make you feel comfortable and very special. Any bride would be lucky to get to work with them!
Damion is such an amazing photographer. I first met him at a seminar where he was showcasing his work with an Event Planner from Napa Valley. What I like about Damion is that he is professional and a man of integrity and respect. I feel that any job he takes on, the client will be completely pleased.
This box isn't big enough to describe our wonderful experience with Damion and Julie Hamilton! We hired them to photograph one of the most important days in the life of our family...our oldest daughter's wedding in May 2012. The Hamilton's had also photographed the wedding of a good friend, so we knew the photos would be beautiful. The Hamiltons are complete professionals from the first contact. Emails are promptly replied to, appointments are kept in a punctual manner. They provide deadlines to keep you on track. The day of the wedding they actually helped keep all of us organized! They took the timeline we provided, reduced and laminated it and attached it to their belt referring to it often so we got in all the shots we wanted. Then the images...stunning and creative! They captured the day, the feelings, the love and the joy! They shared their excitement when they knew they had gotten 'the shot'. And yet, we never felt intruded on or rushed. It was like having a family friend handle the photography. We received a 'sneak peek' of the images really soon after the wedding to satisfy our impatience and all the images digitally well within the time promised. The only issue is choosing from the hundreds of amazing images to complete an album!! Once you select images, they organize the album and check for duplication or omission of an important moment. Left to my daughter and I alone, the task would have been overwhelming and time consuming. The price is set up front, and we were never pressured with 'add ons' or extras. Please remember, when it comes to photography, you get what you pay for...this is one area you do not want to skimp. It's the one thing you have forever. Damion was not the least expensive professional, nor the most expensive we researched. The prized album arrived prior to the promised date and it was more beautiful than we could have imagined. A keepsake we cherish. Please do your research, but in the end chose to work with Damion and Julie Hamilton for your important event, you will be delighted you did!
I have the honor and privilege to work with many talented photographers, but Damion is always at the top of my list! Beyond the extremely talented and personable photographer he is, I find that his attention to detail is what truly sets him apart from others. Damion has an amazing eye for details and through his lens, he captures perfection whether it be a bride and groom or the tiniest details that bring a wedding or event to life. His photography tells vivid and beautiful stories always. It is always with great respect and admiration that I recommend Damion Hamilton Photography to my clients!
Great photographer. Great communicator. Flexible. Cooperative. A great eye for what's needed in the event world which means judge every photo as if it could be the cover of a magazine. Team player and tireless as well. Never needs to be told what to do but anticipates every need. THE BEST!
