"A Heritage Studio, Perfecting the Art of Capturing Life’s Moments"

OWEN DE SILVA - FOUNDER

Owen De Silva, the visionary founder of OLGA STUDIO, established the brand in 1942 with a simple yet powerful mission — to capture life’s most meaningful moments with excellence and artistry. A pioneer in professional photography, he combined technical mastery with an artist’s eye, setting new standards for precision, storytelling, and craftsmanship.

What began as a single studio soon became the foundation of the OLGA Group of Companies, marking the start of a legacy built on creativity, integrity, and innovation. His commitment to quality and authenticity transformed the studio into a trusted national name — a standard that continues to guide the group’s values and vision today.

Through his timeless work and entrepreneurial spirit, Owen De Silva didn’t just create photographs; he built a heritage of artistry, excellence, and enduring impact that lives on through every frame and every company within the OLGA Group.

A LEGACY OF LIGHT

Every moment is captured with care, precision, and artistry, honoring a heritage of timeless photography. From the first shutter click to each image created today, the studio reflects decades of experience, craftsmanship, and enduring storytelling. Each photograph is more than a picture — it is alegacy preserved in light, a celebration of the people, places, and moments that shape a life. Through every frame, technical mastery and an artist’s eye come together to ensure memories are not only remembered, but treasured, cherished, and passed down through generations.

THE LEGACY CONTINUES

Over the decades, life’s most meaningful moments have been carefully captured and preserved, reflecting a heritage of artistry and precision. Alongside photography, custom framing and national distribution of photography-related products are offered, with every project demonstrating a commitment to quality, integrity, and timeless storytelling. Today, tradition and innovation come together seamlessly, ensuring that each frame continues to tell a story and honor the enduring legacy established over 80 years ago.

Being part of the OLGA Group of Companies, OLGA STUDIO carries forward this legacy and continues to set the standard for excellence in photography.

GENERATIONS OF EXCELLENCE

Founded in 1942 by Owen De Silva, the studio has been 100% family-owned ever since, preserving a tradition of excellence across generations. What began as a single photography studio grew into a legacy built on artistry, precision, and innovation — a legacy that continues to inspire every image created today.

Decades of experience have refined both technique and vision. Every project is approached with care, combining technical mastery with artistic intuition honed over generations of portraiture and fine art photography. From high-resolution imaging to advanced color grading, each image is crafted to preserve the soul of the moment while enhancing its impact.

Innovation and tradition are seamlessly fused here. Classical elegance is honored, while modern tools and technology ensure clarity, depth, and detail in every frame. Whether capturing a family portrait, a corporate profile, or a custom-framed art piece, attention to detail is uncompromised.

This unique blend of timeless aesthetic and contemporary visual impact, delivered by a studio still guided by the founding family, is something only a studio with over 80 years of history can offer.
