Hi, I’m David Oleksik, photographer and owner of MJO Moments. My interest in photography began back in high school where I was the photographer for the football and baseball teams. After obtaining a bachelor’s degree, raising a family, and starting several businesses, my love for photography resurfaced when my grandsons became involved in sports. They inspired me to resume my passion, leading me to start my most fulfilling business venture yet.

Since starting this company I have expanded my photography beyond sports, developing a particular interest in Headshot portraits. In doing so, I saw the need for a local studio and have created a fully equipped photo studio here in Carroll County to support myself and other local photographers. Throughout my career I’ve learned that while a good photo reflects how a person looks, a great photo shares a person’s soul. Capturing the essence of who you are and getting to show you the best of yourself is what drives me to become the best at what I do. I am a member of the Headshot Crew, a group of esteemed headshot photographers from around the world, and I am fortunate enough to have been trained by the founder of the crew, a renowned NY-based photographer known to be the industry leader in headshot photography.

 I work hard and play hard, enjoying boating, flying, and spending time with my wonderful wife, our two daughters and sons-in-law, and our seven grandchildren. I am very grateful for all the support of my family and friends, without whom I wouldn’t have been able to pursue my passion and live my dream. Capturing those special moments in life is the most rewarding adventure for me. I look forward to capturing yours!

I’m Angelica Ciulla, and I serve as the Social Media Specialist and Scheduling Coordinator at MJO Moments. My role involves organizing and coordinating photo shoots, managing our social media presence, and actively assisting during photography sessions. With a background in both modeling and photography, I bring a strong understanding of posing and composition, paired with a keen eye for aesthetics.

I strive to create a relaxed and enjoyable environment during shoots, ensuring that every client feels comfortable and confident. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is helping people see themselves in a new light, proving that anyone can be a model and showing them the beauty captured through the lens.

Outside of my work with MJO Moments, I continue to pursue my passions as a model and actor, specializing in monologues and improv. My work has earned recognition through various awards, and I’m proud to bring that experience into every shoot!
