We had the good fortune of connecting with Duprée Armon and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Duprée, can you talk to us a bit about the social impact of your business?
I truly believe my business serves and uplifts the community by making a meaningful impact through the reactions and gratitude I receive from clients. Being able to provide services that improve their businesses or boost their confidence is incredibly rewarding.

Through the projects I shoot, I aim to offer new perspectives, whether for someone’s personal life or their business—depending on the outcome of the images we capture. These visuals can help clients see their vision in a different light, often clarifying and reinforcing their sense of purpose. And when someone understands their purpose, they gain the wisdom to inspire and guide others in discovering their own.

Photography is a powerful art form that not only showcases diverse ways of life but also bridges the gap between how people see the world and how it truly is. It’s an incredible tool for fostering connection, self-discovery, and growth.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What sets me apart from others is my deep empathy for the arts. I believe I connect with people on a different level—allowing us to discuss a project, reflect on it, understand its essence, and execute it with ease. I consider my work clean, eclectic, and artful. One of the things I take pride in is my ability to connect with individuals I’ve never met before, recognizing their energy and character, which ultimately allows me to produce my best work.

I’ve gotten to where I am today by taking risks. I believe that without risk, life becomes stagnant, and you miss the opportunity to fully explore your potential and purpose. I’m known as a risk-taker, and I thrive on the challenge of trying new things, pushing boundaries, and aiming for the best possible results. Of course, there’s been a lot of trial and error along the way, but that’s part of the journey of discovering who you are and what you’re meant to do. I’m still on that journey, and while it’s not always easy, I know that taking those risks is essential to finding myself and achieving my goals.

My hope is that the world remembers me as someone who left a meaningful mark through my words, art and presence—by living authentically. I want to create an impact that resonates for generations to come, showing people that they, too, can live boldly and pursue their truth.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If a friend were visiting the city, I’d start by taking them to my favorite Asian restaurant, Elephant East, for an incredible meal. Then, I’d invite them to join me at a few photo shoots—either as my assistant for the day or just to experience the behind-the-scenes madness of my work.

Of course, we’d hit up some great spots for drinks and explore a variety of other food places. I’d also take them to some amazing networking events and opportunities to meet like-minded people. To round it out, we’d definitely spend some time outdoors, enjoying nature with a few fun excursions—I’ve always loved being outside and soaking it all in!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
While there isn’t one specific person to name, I want to give a huge shoutout to my ever-growing creative community. They’ve been instrumental in supporting me with both personal and paid projects. I always say, “a great team leads to great results.”

I also want to acknowledge my family for their unwavering support throughout the years, constantly championing my growth and aspirations. And, of course, I can’t forget about God—He’s been the driving force behind my journey, inspiring me to continue striving to be both influential and impactful.
