{Portrait Photography in Santa Barbara} There’s No Place Like Home
What a fantastic Santa Barbara family with such a great bond and sense of humor. Loved everything about this session- the beautiful home they built together, their great style and laid back attitudes, the natural smiles that really showed their love and happiness, how can you go wrong with all that goodness?? The outtakes and moments shared between clicks were just as priceless as the posed ones. With their youngest son going away to college (to become a doctor!), the oldest into the military, and baby girl starting high school, I hope they cherish these times. One of my favorite lifestyle sessions ever! Thank you “D” family for such a fun afternoon. XOXOX

{Santa Barbara Portrait Photography} Thank You 2011
Goodness, to be honest I got extremely teary looking over images for this post. I know it’s cliche to say but I feel so blessed to have captured the faces of all my wonderful clients in the past year. My business really took off in 2011 and I have all of you to thank, I couldn’t have done it without you. I had such a blast getting to know you, hearing your stories, and for many- watching your children grow and change. As a thank you, not only will I be offering return clients in 2012 $50 off their session fee, I will be hosting a little contest on my Facebook page- a chance for you to win a free session, including ALL your digital files! So look out for that! And hopefully you stick around, and continue to follow my blog, I have a feeling there will be many exciting things in store for Z’s the Day in 2012. XOXOXO Jen
SEE YOU IN 2012!! :-)

{My Project 10} Christmas Edition
Every month I participate in a photography project with nine other ladies from around the globe. We post 10 photos from a “day in the life” on the tenth of the month. This is my holiday edition and probably my favorite Project 10 so far. I’ve been blessed with wonderful business and clients this past year- so much that most of the time I forget to slow down and capture my own family, and things that I love. For this month’s Project 10 I chose to document our Christmas decorating day with a trip to Lane Farms for a tree and some fresh veggies, home for dinner, a couple pumpkin spice martinis, a little Pandora holiday station, and a whole lotta tree trimming (which you can tell from the overloaded Noble)
I also love this addition because I had a little artistic fun with these photos, thank you to Florabella and Jessica Drossin for the textures on all ten images
Next please head over to the blog of Hope Toliver, she is completely inspiring with her lifestyle photography!

{Santa Barbara Family Photographer} Plus One
I was so happy to finish up my season of holiday photo sessions with this special family! Mama and I have known each other since we were 5 in kindergarten, the same age my son is now. It’s now a joy to see her own family grow, last time I photographed them they were four- with the addition of a new baby comes another reason for an updated family shot, and for that I am glad. This session was so fun, the colors were perfect, and it was yet another beautiful Santa Barbara evening. Oh and those three kiddos aren’t hard on the eyes, right? ;-) Thank you H Family!! XOXOX
