Bluephoto, San Luis Obispo Wedding Photographer | Santa Barbara bio picture

Hi, I'm Jonathan Roberts and I started Bluephoto 6 years ago. I've shot over 250 weddings and have loved every minute of it *(almost every minute....the naked reception guy freaked me out...and there was the crazy dog that bit Michael, the groom...)!

And a little about me:

I am living my dream. Not too many people can say that. I have the cutest wife ever. Michelle never stops smiling and she is simply a joy to wake up to each day. I am incredibly thankful for our happy little boy who spends way more time giggling than crying, a wife who is the love of my life and a job I look forward to each day. Marriage for me has been a dream come true and I am thrilled to be a part of each couple's wedding day as they make the commitment to be together for the rest of their lives.

And to be a little less sappy - I also love wine, cooking, cyclingnews.com, figuring out near impossible lighting setups, single speed mountain bikes, chips and salsa, brie with crackers and caramelized onions, the perfect margarita with just a touch of salt, and knowing when I click the shutter that I captured a perfect moment.

Shoot me an email or give me a call we'll figure out a time to grab a cup of coffee.

Becca and Chris

Becca and Chris own a successful restaurant business and are truly a wonderful couple. I was excited by how easy our entire engagement session went. The three of us quickly clicked and the images came easy. They will be having their wedding at the Cass House (HERE) in Cayucos this October. Cayucos is a small beach town just north of San Luis Obispo offering golden hills as well as scenic ocean views.

Selena and Armando

Selena and Armando will be married later this year at Eagle Castle Winery (HERE), in Paso Robles. Twice we rescheduled their engagement sessions due to rain. I am very happy to have landed on such a remarkable evening as the temperature and light were perfect. Spring has come early to San Luis Obispo and if these recent shoots are any indication of the 2010 wedding season, I am very excited to get rolling.

Becca and Chris

Last night, the wind stopped and the light turned magical. Chris and Becca were perfect. I shot a lot of film with these two and I can’t wait to get it back from the lab. Full blog post will be up in the next few days.

Grand Chenier Barn Warming

This last weekend I was invited up to the Grand Chenier Barn Warming. The Grand Chenier Barn (website: HERE) is located east of San Miguel and before you arrive at Parkfield. This is a working horse ranch with literally hundreds of horses up and down the hillsides. The barn itself has been recently setup to host weddings and is a top notch facility. The surrounding hills create a stunning backdrop and the accommodations are like none other. The upstairs is a unique experience with antiques from all over the country ranging from musket rifles and pianos to a 360 degree mirrored changing room and four post bed overlooking gorgeous green hills and a vibrant sunset.

I received my invitation to the barn warming a month before the event. The invitation asked that I arrive at noon before the 3pm start. When I pulled up, I was greeted by Nicole who was going to be our bride model for the afternoon. Sweet! Janie, who is the events manager, had arranged for wedding dresses as well as transportation and an extensive tour of the surrounding countryside. Not only is the facility top shelf, but Janie and the rest of her staff were simply wonderful! I highly suggest taking a look at the Grand Chenier Barn if you are looking for a country barn wedding venue.

Greg and Whitney caught my attention as they were playing around out in one of the fields. These two are sweet, sincere and totally hilarious. I had a blast shooting a few frames of them against the gorgeous green hills.
