“I recently renewed my professional headshots, returning to Oliver who shot my previous set seven years ago. Oliver established a great rapport, beginning with our initial emails and flowing into the shooting session. He understood my particular requirements and artfully applied his considerable photographic skills during the session to put together a great range of options from which I could make a selection.”
Tom Lawton- actor, playwright. /
“Oliver was a consummate professional from start to finish. His warm demeanour and intelligent banter made me feel at ease throughout the shoot and the photos turned out perfectly.”
Holly Turner- performer. /
"Working with Oliver has been an absolutely joy. From the moment I walked in the door, i instantly felt welcome. His high level of professionalism was evident from the beginning with his clear communication, praise support, passion for his work and attention to detail. Oliver has assisted me to create my identity as an artist and I look forward to working with him again. I highly recommend this talented photographer to prospective clients."

“Oliver absolutely nailed our brief for professional promo shots. We literally had a hundred photo’s to choose between. A great guy who gives enough direction but also keeps everything candid. I would recommend Oliver to anyone who needs to capture something with perfection”.
Commercial Property. /
“After looking at various photographers I chose Oliver to photograph a number of my short stay accommodation properties. I liked the style of his work and he did not disappoint. The images he took were beautiful and really captured the individual feel of the different properties. Oliver was lovely to work with and very professional. I also felt he was very good value. When I updated my websites it looked like my properties had had a complete makeover due to Oliver's ability to bring out the best in each of them!" Jennifer- A Home Away Tasmania.
Commercial property and Real Estate.. /
"I have used Oliver to photograph a number of properties now. I have found him great to work with. He is punctual, reliable and efficient and has a fantastic eye for detail and capturing the best images. Oliver takes a great deal of care in his work and always goes above and beyond the brief.
He is certainly my photographer of choice." Karen Fraser- Property manager.
Migrant Resource Center. /
"Oliver was engaged by the Migrant Resource Centre (Southern Tasmania) Inc. to capture the essence of the Inspire program, which connects Tasmanian Multicultural performers to the wider community. Oliver took on this project with a very tight timeline. He was pleasant to liaise with and very responsive throughout the entire process. Oliver’s interest and personal connection to the project was evident and is reflected in the beautiful images he has produced. As many of the performers and public speakers are new members of the community with English as their second language, it was very much appreciated how patient and understanding Oliver was during the three portrait sessions. Oliver also did an amazing job capturing the performance night at the Peacock Theatre Hobart, working in real time with lighting challenges. Oliver is a friendly, easy going, talented and professional photographer. We would highly recommend his services and look forward to the opportunity to use him again for future MRC projects."

"I would like to say a few words on what a great experience the whole photoshoot was. From the moment I arrived I was made to feel comfortable and relaxed. I dislike having my photograph taken and wasn't looking forward to standing in front of a camera at all. The minute I walked into the studio you made me feel at ease. I have receive fantastic compliments about my photographs. Who doesn't like hearing "that is a great photograph of you"? "Thank you for the experience and I will definitely recommend you to friends, family and business associates".
Crystal Sky-Campbell- CD cover/ general promo. /
"Having never experienced being in front of a lense and trying to be "natural" I was able to relax as soon as I stepped in the studio with Oliver. I never felt awkward or out of place and I especially felt like I was being, me. He gave direction well to a total beginner like myself but the results were just awesome! I was nervous to look at these honest images but when I did I poured over them and could not love the final images more! For anyone artist/performer/entertainer looking to expand their portfolio I would highly recommend Oliver Berlin as your go to photographer. He is genuine, professional and extremely efficient at his art!"
Mama K and the Big Love. /
"Of course, it is true that many people feel shy in front of the camera - I have to say I certainly have never liked the feeling. That was until I spent time with Oliver! For the first time i felt sexy! Self assured! From the first meeting to discuss the shoot I knew he was the right person for us. Oliver Berlin is more than a photographer; he's an artist! His work is thoughtful, beautiful, edgy!! "Kartika Franks- Mama K and the Big Love.

Promotional portrait /
"Oliver handled my comedy promo shoot with exactly the same easy manner as his did my art nude which made me feel comfortable straight away.
He understands what looks good and what doesn't and has very high attention to detail both behind the camera and in editing.
He is an extremely high standard of photographer and I would be happy going back to him time and time again." Le Fay Ella Morgan- Comedian/ performer.

"Far from sitting impatiently in a chair while some disinterested guy with a camera took a few head shots, working with Oliver was like meeting a new friend. I was really impressed by the importance Oliver placed on understanding me as a person and an actor before the shoot. This, along with his artistic sensibility, inspiring studio and faultless professionalism informed some amazing photographs"- Matt Stolp- actor/ writer.
