The Milner Family Photos SLO are below 🙂
It was great to head out to one of my favorite spots with this family, which, as it turns out, live just down the street from me! The kids were happy to spend their photo session running thru the forest, jumping down the dunes & literally dancing in the tide pools. We did manage to capture some good posed photos as well.
Looking forward to the next hike!
Blake Andrews founded SLOtography in 2008 and now works alongside photographer James Lester, Stephen Heraldo, and videographer Robin Ayers. Together, they bring more than 10 years of experience (and serious good vibes) to weddings and events throughout San Luis Obispo and the Central Coast.
The sweetest. 3 generations of ladies getting ready. Beautiful newlyweds. A mission SLO wedding. A true-SLO celebration. ❤️

What’d you do for Valentine’s Day? Way to set the bar high, Dimitri…proposal perfection. Outfit on point ❤️ 🌹. Such a great anniversary TBH…makes Valentine’s Day actually meaningful ;)
The concept of celebrating your 40th birthday by inviting 20 of your closest, quirkiest couple friends to gather together and dress in the theme of their chosen hotel room is nothing short of brilliant. Aslo brilliant: doing it all at the Madonna Inn ;). Congrats on being legends, Renee & Chris! And Happy Valentine’s Day…if you’re into that? @madonnainn1958 @madonnainnevents ~ if you have any interest in seeing more from this shoot and the MadonnaInn, find the link to my blog in my profile!
441
That’s how many weddings I just counted—441 weddings I’ve had the pleasure of capturing. All time.
Starting in 2008, that’s an average of 26 weddings per year! Wow. Yes, that includes elopements. However, I’ve also calculated that, on average, I spend about six hours capturing each wedding.
For all of you who love numbers, this one’s for you. And here’s a big one:
500.
For a long time, I had the number 500 in mind—like, “After 500, I’m out!”
At the rate I’ve been going for the last five years, I’ll hit 500 by the end of 2026.
Spoiler: I’m not retiring in 2027. That’d be no fun. So maybe 2037? I’ll lay down my camera, and I’ll…

Planned Parenthood ~ SLO Together
Celebrating and supporting the SLO chapter of Planned Parenthood is paramount. Always. But, as we are well aware, this amazing organization needs our support more than ever.
Because when you are in need, who is here for you? Planned Parenthood. Just like always. Fighting. And once a year, PP invites together, in one room, a group of the most amazing people ever assembled and asks for another year of generosity. This support allows them to continue to help people when they need it most.
