Lisa Damico Portraits

 The Official EmLovz Photographer

Your Coaching Is Working.

Your Photos Need to Catch Up.


You've spent months becoming the man women want to meet. You've worked with Emyli. You've refined your profile. You've invested in yourself.

Now it's time for photos that finally show him.

Emyli named me the official photographer for Dating Decoded because my entire specialty is creating online dating photos that reflect who you are today—and help you attract the kind of women you're actually excited to meet.

“Every single client I’ve sent Lisa ends up thrilled with the results—and, often, in a relationship soon after.”
Emyli Lovz · Founder of EmLovz


What one shoot can do 1 in 25,000 How one member beat the odds in two weeks.

“Within two weeks of using your photos, I attracted a lady who has 25K+ likes on Bumble alone. Fourteen days after we met, we became exclusive. She told me my photos compelled her to choose me over all the other guys vying for her attention.”

— Thomas, Midlothian VA · Dating Decoded member

The problem

You're doing everything right. Your photos aren't.

You know the numbers because you track them. Twenty-five likes a week with personalized openers, and a one percent match rate to show for it. Matches with women you're lukewarm about, silence from the ones you're actually excited to meet. It's not your profile—Emyli fixed that. It's not your effort. It's that the photos on your profile still show the man you were before you did all this work.

Here's the part almost every member tells me on our first call: you're confident in real life, and something about a camera flattens it. The warmth doesn't come through. The smile reads stiff. Emyli calls it an awkwardness in your pictures that isn't there in person—but the pictures are the only version of you she has to go off of, and it's not leading to a lot of swipe rights.

None of this is a you problem. It's a photo problem—and unlike the work you've already done, this one doesn't take months to fix.

The last piece of the puzzle

That's where I come in.

Online dating photography is my specialty—and drawing you out in front of a camera is the skill I've spent more than a decade sharpening. The gap between how you come across in person and how you come across on the apps closes in a single day.

Every session is thoughtfully designed to create images that accurately reflect who you are today, so your profile makes the same first impression (if not better than!) you do in person.

Approachable, confident, adventurous, sophisticated, or all of the above: my job is to create a collection of images that helps the right women see the real you before you've even exchanged a message.

My process

Refined over more than a decade.
Tailored for Dating Decoded members.

I've spent more than a decade specializing in online dating photography, developing a process that helps clients create natural, authentic photos that attract more—and better—matches.

Because I regularly photograph Dating Decoded members, I also understand the work you've already done with Emyli. Rather than starting from scratch, we'll build on that foundation to create photos that support your profile strategy and reflect the man you've worked hard to become.

First

A conversation—not a sales call.

We start with a call so I can learn about you, who you're hoping to meet, and what isn't working with your current photos. We'll discuss the right session option, answer your questions, and map out exactly what your shoot will look like before you book.

Then

A personalized wardrobe plan.

Before your shoot, you'll meet virtually with my celebrity wardrobe stylist to plan every outfit. Together you'll choose clothing, accessories, and footwear that fit well, photograph beautifully, and create the variety your dating profile needs.

You'll arrive confident, prepared, and never wondering what to wear.

Shoot Day

Enjoy the experience. I'll handle the rest.

Every session is photographed by me personally. You don't need to know how to pose, where to look, or what to do with your hands. I'll guide you through every expression, movement, and interaction while my team keeps your skin, grooming, wardrobe, and every detail looking their best throughout the day.

“I can’t believe how much fun that was.”
After

Choosing your strongest photos—with data.

Your top images are reviewed by a panel of fellow online daters, and your ten strongest photos are tested on Photofeeler before your image reveal.

Together we'll review the results, choose the images most likely to perform well, and build a collection that gives your dating profile variety, authenticity, and confidence. Your selected images are professionally retouched and delivered, ready to upload.

Exclusively for Dating Decoded members

The perks I reserve for you.

I've tailored the experience for Dating Decoded members with a handful of exclusive benefits designed to help you get the most from your session—and your new profile.

Priority Scheduling

Dating Decoded members receive first access to new studio and travel dates before they're released publicly.

Expedited Turnaround

Your professionally retouched images are delivered within 48 hours of making your selections, so you can update your profile and start putting them to work right away.

Complimentary Photofeeler Testing

Your top ten images are tested for attractiveness, trustworthiness, and intelligence before your image reveal, giving us real data to help choose your strongest photos.

A Seamless Experience

Because I regularly work with Dating Decoded members, I understand the types of images your profile needs and how they fit into the strategy you've already built. Your session is designed to complement that work while showcasing your personality in a way that feels authentic, confident, and approachable.

In their own words.

“I’ve had professional photos taken a number of times and gritted my teeth and faked my smiles through every one of them. I fully expected to do it again. On the contrary—not only did the photos turn out excellent and are improving my online success tremendously, but the experience was a lot of fun. The smiles in the photos were genuine because Lisa is experienced, funny, and made the photoshoot a blast.”
Brant · VA More matches with women he’s actually attracted to
“I came to Lisa through a referral, and it was an easy decision once I saw her portfolio. What stood out was the specialization in dating photography specifically. Lisa was great at directing without making it feel staged, and the final images genuinely exceeded my expectations. If you’re serious about your dating profile and want photos that actually look like you, Lisa is the person to call.”
Sagar · NY “The best picture of myself I’ve ever seen”
“I was a little nervous beforehand but Lisa and her team put me at ease very quickly. I loved how professional the experience was—honestly, I felt like a celebrity. Lisa has a talent for bringing out a natural smile. I can already see an uptick in the quantity and quality of matches.”
Brian · ME More matches, better quality
“There was no anxiety or stress. I noticed the price but was OK with it because it was an investment in my future. I was a celebrity for a day—watching you do your job as a professional photographer was genuinely fun. You already get glowing reviews in the Dating Decoded program, and now I know why.”
Nathan · MA Booked after Emyli’s personal recommendation
“Lisa made the session feel easy, and the final images were genuinely better than I expected. Showing up already feeling put-together meant I wasn’t in my head during the shoot—I could just focus on being present. The profile feels like a much more accurate and compelling representation of who I actually am.”
Dan · MD “The best picture of myself I’ve ever seen”
“The process was very smooth, thorough, and pleasant, and the pictures turned out great. I was worried they wouldn’t perform well on the apps—I just started using them and I’ve already gotten more matches.”

Trusted by dating coaches. Chosen by clients nationwide.

I've specialized in online dating photography for more than a decade, helping hundreds of men create photos that attract more—and better—matches.

What I love most about this work is that it's never just about taking a good picture. It's about helping someone feel like the best version of themselves, then creating photographs that let other people see that too.

Every session is photographed by me personally—I don't outsource or hand clients off to associate photographers. From our first conversation through your image reveal, I'm with you every step of the way.

Over the years I've developed a process built specifically for online dating. It combines wardrobe styling, skin prep and grooming, carefully chosen locations, expert direction, Photofeeler testing, and feedback from a panel of fellow online daters—so you go into your reveal knowing which images actually perform, not just which ones you like best.

Dating coaches and matchmakers across the country refer their clients to me because they know I understand what makes online dating photos work. Emyli trusts me with her Dating Decoded members because our goals are the same: helping you present yourself authentically, confidently, and in a way that attracts the kind of relationship you're looking for.

Whether you're traveling to Old Town Alexandria or I'm coming to your city, my goal is simple: to create the best online dating photos you've ever had—and to make the entire experience something you actually enjoy.

“I’ve even had clients fly across the country just to shoot with Lisa—that’s how powerful her work is.” — Emyli Lovz, founder of EmLovz
