GET TO KNOW ME
Hi Guys! My name is Shaya Oliver and I am a passionate 28 year old Engagement, Wedding and Elopement Photographer living here in Central Florida in Maitland with my husband Jimmy, and two fur babies named Lily and Tripp. I attended the University of Central Florida here in Orlando from 2016 to 2019 and graduated with my Bachelor of Arts degree specializing in Photography. I have always had a passion for the arts ever since I was a little girl whose dream was to find something that made me truly happy!
My passions have luckily aligned with my career path and I am so incredibly grateful to be able to pursue what gives me creative freedom and happiness every single day. I love being able to work with people during the happiest times of their lives and get the chance to be apart of the magic. I have so much fun doing what I do and getting to capture the endless smiles, laughs, and bloopers behind the scenes for all of my Clients. Making sure they have the best time and unforgettable experience is my end goal. Making people happy is what truly makes me happy, and of course traveling, trying new Orlando restaurants and going to the pool are a few other things that make me very happy!
Everyone has their unique story to be told...
It's my passion to creatively document that with you!
