Corporate Photography Clients say:
Yoly Villanueva-Ong, Group Chairperson & Executive Creative Director, Campaigns Group of Companies: “In true Tony fashion, his passion for photography grew quietly, profoundly and profusely. From crafting words on a sheet of paper, Tony begun to tell his story with visuals. The same poetic intensity that he used to create award-winning ads is now channeled into each photograph. The subject, the light, the mood, the composition – each element is used with deliberate intent to evoke the wanted response.”
Wish Ronquillo, Director of Content and Creative Factory at Mig33, Singapore: “I have worked with Tony with most of my projects at Mirant Philippines. As his former client, he gives us wonderful-crazy ideas that strategically work for the goals that we want to achieve. We have a great partnership in regards to producing the ideas and making it great, winning communication awards as one of the results. He is very personable, creative, work-focused and a fun person to work with. Also, he is an amazing photographer, keen with details on his subjects. If you are looking for a full-circle creative director to work with, Tony is highly recommended.”
Jack Orendain, Manager – Internal Communication, Pioneer Insurance: “Tony Oquias is a sensitive storyteller whose pictures capture the beauty and drama or life and humanity. He’s a joy to work with as he adeptly empowers his clients to tell their own stories through the timeless and universal language of his craft.”
William S. Fernando, Executive Director, Bato Balani Foundation, Inc.: “Tony Oquias is one of the most understated creative artists in town. His low-key manner belies the artistry and intelligence that goes into every photo and creative undertaking that he does. He is not only a great photographer, he is also a visual storyteller, able to tell a story with his creations, a surefire formula for attaining communications objectives in the graphic dimension.”
Panny Paragas, Senior Program Officer, Food Fortification Program, MOST-USAID: “I feel at ease working with Tony. He has no problem putting himself in the shoes of the client, absorbs what needs to be done, and accurately and creatively translates these into photographs. He is very perceptive, which has enriched many of our visuals beyond our original intentions. Tony will always be our first choice!”
Wedding Photography Clients say:
Rhoa Dequina-Tan, Billing & Collection, ALI Group Support: “Sir Tony was heaven sent. I found him by luck via internet, I contacted him because I like his web post and he captured my interest with his witty captions (other than the obvious visual excellence of his work posted in the net). He was very accommodating (when it took me a year to finally book his services, it was as if it was just yesterday when we talked, we resumed negotiations and closed the deal in a snap). I felt he reached out to his clients and he was easy to deal with so much so that he even customized the package for me because he truly understands. During the event, he was very professional and his shots are visually stimulating (it tells stories even with just one shot). He made my wedding really special and gave me something to treasure and show my grandchildren later in life. He’s honest and transparent, I felt reassured because he keeps me updated on his pending work. I will be forever grateful that he captured the highlights of my wedding and I thank heavens because he was the photographer on my wedding (I’m lucky indeed).”
Maria Monica Babanto Abestano: I found Tony Oquias’s website tonystill.com while I was looking for a wedding photographer in Cavite area. What caught my attention in his work was how he captures the moment with all its emotional intensity, and that is what I really want to see in my wedding pictures. His low-key manner makes him really easy to work with, yet very professional with what he does as evidenced by his photographs. I am very, very happy and pleased to have worked with him on my wedding day and I would definitely recommend him to others.
Jeannette B. Cepillo, Emerson Process Management: The wedding day was stressful, but Tony helped lessen the stress by not being the type of photographer who tells people to “Pose! Pose! Pose!” He just took pictures naturally, as if he’s not there, but I know somebody’s making sure precious moments are being captured. He just asks us to “smile” from time to time, and not in awkward moments. He also takes pictures of inanimate objects with life like a work of art. Like that problematic arrahae that I covered with cotton to prevent the coins from falling … didn’t look like “remedied” at all!
Alejo Armenal (Husband of Jeannette above): The pictures are great! Very nice quality and great timing also. I can imagine stories in every shot, won’t get tired looking at them, both candid and portrait shots
