Every month I participate in a blog circle with other photographers from around the globe, sharing images taken with our Lensbaby lenses. This month we had the theme of “love” and I decided to shoot the day of the week I love the most- Saturday. So my share is “a day in the life”, a quick glimpse into a beautiful sunny Saturday in Santa Barbara with my son…
Ziah is a HUGE reader so a stop at the local library is a must..

then off for some frozen yogurt as a sweet treat..

finally, a little organic produce shopping at our local Lane Farms fruit stand…


all images shot at mid-day with the D700 + Lensbaby Composer Pro + Edge 80 optic.
Our circle is always filled with gorgeous Lensbaby eye candy, so please continue through and visit Kristen Ryan Photography!




great job! love the colours!
Love these! Library photos! What a great idea! Looks like a really fun day. You did a great job!
Jennifer, I LOVE these! Beautiful compositions and love the colors. My favorites are Ziah at the library with the headphones, him getting the yogurt, and I LOVE the one with the drip on his chin! It’s inevitable, isn’t it?! There is always a drip or two. I also love the fruit stand sign. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
Love that orange grove shot! The Lensbaby effect looks fantastic on these shots! :)
Loooove these! What a wonderfully fun day all captured with a Lensbaby! Crazy great! :D
These are some great photos! I LOVE library shoots! I want to do a day in the life now!
Such beautiful shots and your son, wonderful!
I love how you used the lensbaby to put all of the emphasis on your subject. This whole set is just awesome!
I love how you used the lensbaby to really place the emphasis on your subject. I love that you used it for lifestyle shots! This whole set is amazing!
Beautiful captures this month. I love a good “day in the life” theme. The photo of your sun crouching in front of the oranges is my favorite.
What a fabulous interpretation of the theme. Looks like you guys had a fabulous day. Love the frozen yogurt drip shot – but I think the second to last photo of your son under the orange trees is my favorite.
LOVE the library! My favorite shot is the one peeking at your son between the books! I miss my guys being little!
Wow! Fantastic use of the edge 80! Tons of inspiration here:) Loved the library shots.
