From start to finish Blake was incredible! With all the stress and chaos that goes into wedding planning, Blake was a breath of fresh air for us. He is very responsive and positive and made everyone feel comfortable. When I woke up in a panic 2 days before the wedding and realized I hadn't calculated the timeline correctly, he quickly shifted and made it happen. My family and guests had nothing but good things to say about him and all were impressed at his level of professionalism and grace. Since we were doing a beach ceremony, having a local photographer that new the terrain and had the gear was a high priority. When you're planning a wedding you'll get a lot of ads for cheap photographers and if it's too good to be true it probably is. Blake is worth every penny and more. Our photos came out stunning and we have absolutely no regrets. Blake is organized, knowledgeable and it's amazing how he was able to capture all the shots we wanted and more. Hire him in a heartbeat.

We absolutely LOVED working with the SLOtography team for our wedding day! Blake and Robin were both wonderful and we had such a good time shooting with them throughout the day. They did a fantastic job of making us feel comfortable and at ease, and were great at directing us for all the posed shots (the ones we were notably most nervous for!) Blake even managed to wrangle together some huge family photos outside the venue, which we are super grateful for. Cannot recommend working with them more highly!

Blake was exactly what we needed for our wedding and reception! He was professional, kind, and responsive! We felt comfortable when taking our posed shots and he wonderfully captured the whole night from the background too!

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Blake! From start to finish, he was incredibly talented, professional, and gracious with his direction. He made our entire family feel comfortable and at ease throughout the day, which truly shows in the photos. Once we saw the finished images (which came in record time!), we are absolutely blown away! Blake brought our wedding memories to life in the most beautiful way and gave us photos we will cherish forever. We are so grateful and look forward to having the opportunity to work with him again!

Robin created the most breathtaking video to capture our elopement in December. They have a beautiful vision to capture love and I could not recommend them more!

This thank you is a long time coming, however Blake was absolutely INCREDIBLE during our wedding week and engagement shoot! Blake has such a knack for making everyone feel at ease and capturing the most special moments of our most special day.

Especially with intimate moments, it is extremely difficult to feel comfortable with a camera pointed directly at you. From the second we met Blake, all our nerves and anxiety washed away as he helped us seamlessly sink into the scenery. The best way to describe Blake is being ever present with his calm demeanor, but completely invisible when capturing our most raw, genuine moments. That balance of energy and fluidity is hard to come by!

His ability to naturally blend in with the festivities, fully embrace our culture, and be everywhere at all times made sure we’ll be able to relive our cherished memories for a lifetime. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU, Blake and SLOtography! We couldn’t recommend Blake enough to anyone looking for the best wedding photographer in SLO (The world ;))!

We recently hired SLOtography as our photographer and videographer at our wedding in Paso Robles. I cannot recommend these folks enough. Their communication and professionalism was great, they truly listened to what we wanted and the pictures and video turned out amazing. Taking pictures at a wedding can be long and tedious but we did not feel that on our wedding day. They are true professionals. We received the pictures and video within three weeks of the wedding and they look AMAZING! Thank you SLOtography!

Blake and Robin from SLOtography were an absolute pleasure to work with! Although we had our wedding in 2020, we never got the chance to properly celebrate with close family and friends until late this summer. We settled on having an intimate event in Paso Robles, CA and needed to find a photographer and videographer team who could help capture moments from our belated celebratory event.

In came Blake and Robin - who were incredibly helpful from our very first conversations. They suggested ideas that we hadn’t even thought of (e.g.,. incorporating iPhone footage from our 2020 pandemic wedding into a highlight reel from our event) and were very diligent in making sure we provided them a storyboard of what specific photos / moments we wanted to capture so that nothing was missed.

On the evening of the event, both were great in communicating and helping coordinate the posed shots we wanted in addition to grabbing candid shots throughout. They also facilitated a special sunset photoshoot which turned out amazing!

Post the event, the service didn’t end - Blake and Robin reached out within a few days with some sample shots and questions regarding music we wanted for our highlight film. The turnaround time to receive final versions of both were very quick and we (and our family / friends) couldn’t be happier the end results!

If you’re looking for a team to provide a great overall end-to-end experience, SLOtography is the way to go!

SLOtography was everything we could have asked for! We know the day moves fast for everyone involved and we are so happy Blake and Stephen were there to capture it all. We couldn’t have asked for a better team and are so happy with how everything has turned out.

My wife and I found Blake and Dustin of SLOtography a little over two years ago after we decided to get married in SLO. Working with both of them was an absolute pleasure. Blake was incredibly friendly and responsive. He was extremely friendly and outgoing when we did our engagement photos with him which made it feel less awkward and relaxing. Sadly do you Covid we had to postpone and rebook our wedding twice. Thankfully Blake and Dustin were as flexible as they could be and we ended up on a date that worked for all of our vendors. If I could I would post all the photos from our wedding day and shoot to show how great of a job they and their assistants did. Price wise I thought they were incredibly reasonable given the quality of our photos and the amount of time we booked them for. I would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a photographer or videographer in the SLO area.
