Bob O'Lary

I am a commercial photographer in Tallahassee, Florida. I was trained as a photojournalist working for newspapers, magazines, and news wire services, and now specialize in commercial and editorial photography. I enjoy location work, as well as being very creative in my studio. I am a PhotoShop guru/wizard, and LOVE giving my photos that special look in PhotoShop if they need it after they come out of my camera.
Photography has been very good to me, and I enjoy working with creative people while practicing my craft.

My photographs have been published in MANY diverse publications including Time, Newsweek, and People Magazines. I have worked for the New York Times newspaper and Weekend Magazine, as well as many daily newspapers across the nation. My work has been published in encyclopedias, trade journals, and specialty magazines for many years, and one of my photos is in the permanent collection at the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C. I have photographed 5 US presidents, to sorority socials, and enjoy doing it all. My photography is in the Stock collection at BigStockPhoto.com, and my work is represented by Black Star Agency, and Frederick Lewis Agency in New York. My fine art photography is a strong passion as well, and I am the official photographer for the Florida Music Educator's Association, and am the photographer for the Florida State University School of Music in Tallahassee, Florida.
