About
Its hard to explain how my work stands out. it just does lol. I feel like if my images where to be shown amongst others, you would be able to tell "oliver photographs" images to the rest.
I love create special moments. Moments to make people stop and think about the image wether there is something going to happen, or something has already happened.

Michael was so creative. He had unique ideas, was kind, made us feel comfortable, and was able to capture smiles and expressions that were real and natural. I would suggest him for family/ lifestyle photos, fashion photography and gif anyone rob is working on a blog. He was amazing.

Michael was very professional and a great photographer. Everyone at the party commented on how he seamlessly blended in while taking pictures. I was very pleased with how the pictures turned out. I would definitely hire him for our next event, and I would highly recommend Michael for all of your photography needs.

My daughter's surprise engagement was originally set for October 9th in St. Augustine...then hurricane Matthew struck. We had to cancel and move everything to St Petersburg beach literally overnight. Michael stepped up and extended an event saving hand without a moments hesitation. He was on time and made everyone completely comfortable as he masterfully produced an AMAZING shoot. His beautiful photography brought tears to family members eyes. If you are looking for the finest photographer for any event...look no further... Michael Oliver (Oliver Photography) is SIMPLY THE BEST! Thank you Michael

If I could give Micheal 10 stars I would. Words cannot express how pleased we were with his professionalism and eye for detail. We will, definitely, keep him in mind for any future events.
The photographs he captured of my quiet little shower have been the talk of my friends for the past week. During his time with us it was almost as if he wasn't there. His super stealth mode allowed us to comfortably and candidly be ourselves allowing him to capture our genuine and posed moments with grace.
The pictures were processed quickly and easily downloaded from the links provided with many options to choose from. I was also happy to see he isn't one of those photographers that ruins every photo with a tacky company watermark logo. Courtesy, professionalism, and kindness from start to finish.
We're lucky to have found him.
Details: Birthday party • 26 - 50 people • Indoors • CD / DVD • Digital or online download • Flash drive • $$ (standard) • Party host
