OLIPHANT PHOTOGRAPHY | Reflecting....


I was fortunate enough to realize what I wanted to do with my life at an early age. Unfortunately tragedy struck not soon after I photographed the image below in 1992 when I lost the majority of my photographic equipment to a burglary. I still photographed a bit with borrowed gear until the demise of Buffalo Photo Co.; a company I worked for and one that allowed me use of their studio space after hours, it was 1994. I didn't pick up a camera for 13 years. 

Not that you're asking, but if I had to give advice to anyone, I would say figure out what you want to do in life and do it. Let nothing deter you from following your dream. If you're fortunate enough to figure that out at a young age and you're passionate about your choice, success is waiting for you...


...my passion still burns...



....and I hope you find your passion too!!!

all the best,
OLIPHANT

OLIPHANT | PHOTOGRAPHER: Shooting a Fellow Photographer | Las Vegas

Last week I had the pleasure of shooting fellow Las Vegas photographer and friend Myron Hensel.  Myron and I bonded over the past year due to our shared passion for not only wedding photography, but photography in general.  A talented street photographer and former fashion model, Myron has made the leap into wedding photography and if his last wedding is any example of things to come, the skys the limit. Be sure to give his site a browse and send him some love on facebook.

love BIG,
OLIPHANT
