First Look at April and Rob :: Santa Barbara Engagement Photographer

Here's a quick look at a few of the photos from our Santa Barbara engagement photography session with April and Rob, two awesome people who I had a lot of fun with!  They're on a trip right now but when they get back, I'll post the remaining photos and the video slideshow.

First Holy Communion :: Santa Maria Photographer

One of my favorite things about photography is the people I get to meet.  Another favorite thing is when those people tell other people about me.  And then those people tell more people and so on!  Well, that's what happened with this Lompoc photography session.  Lorena called me out of the blue and told me that she was referred by a friend.  The friend has never been a client of mine but just loved my work.  I met Lorena and her husband to discuss their session and they were awesome.  The kind of people you feel like you've known for a long time.  

It was no surprise to meet their daughter Jazlyn only to learn that she was just as friendly as her parents.  They did a good job raising this one.

Onto the session!  Jazlyn had her First Holy Communion a few months ago.  Her mom had a dress custom made back in Mexico and really wanted to get some photographs of her in it but wasn't happy with the images she got initially.  That's where I came in and I'm so glad I had to opportunity to meet them and be their photographer.  I can't wait to see these images hanging on the walls of their Santa Maria home.

Organic Bloom Frames and Ornaments :: Santa Maria Photography Frames

The Organic Bloom.  Just Google them and you'll see how cool they are.  Or you can click this link to their website.

I ordered a few of these frames for my personal use because I love them so much.  The smaller frames are 3x3 "ornaments" but we're going to string up several of them to make a photo garland in our baby Natalie's nursery.  I'll post a photo once we get it on the wall.

If you're looking for a unique frame for your photograph, this is it.  Organic Bloom only sells to photographers so if you want them, just order through me!  They come in a variety of colors and 16 shapes.

This first one is a 10x13" with a chalkboard.  I plan on using it for my next photo session.  You'll see!

These next two photos are the ornament frames in 3x3".  They're amazing but my dog, Lani, didn't like wearing it so much.  I threw the third photo in just because it's Christmas time and it's a relaxing image!

Wild Sorbet Frames :: Central Coast Photography Frames

For the past couple of months I have been selling amazing Wild Sorbet frames.  Today, I finally have the opportunity to show you what a they look like.  You can check out their website to see the different colors and variations but here's a small sample.  The frames can be ordered in 2 inch, 4 inch, or 6 inch wide wood.  They're all handmade to order with whatever trim you want.  You can order any color of trim or frame to suit your craziest desires!

I have a Newborn Baby Girl! :: San Luis Obispo Baby Photography

I have been rather absent from this blog (and my mind) for the last month because my wife was 9 months pregnant.  On November 27th at 3:44 am, she gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, Natalie Marie Lynn Quesinberry (the middle names are her grandmas' middle names).  Ashley was so strong and did such a great job.  I couldn't be more proud of her.  I can't even imagine what it was like to be in her shoes.  Also, our RN and midwife were awesome and if I had to spend 5 days at a hospital, I'm glad it was French Hospital in San Luis Obispo.

Natalie came into this world at 8 pounds 2 ounces and 21 inches long.  Her toes are so long they almost curl around my finger!  I love this little girl more than anything on this planet.

Take a look at the photography from her birth.  I'm so happy I was able to document this!
