Dennis and his wife, Debra take amazing photographs and were able to bring our wedding to life. Dennis was readily available via e-mail and phone and is easy and fun to work with. He was very flexible with our schedule as far as meeting for our engagement photo shoot as well as on the day of our wedding. He is prompt in getting the photos up for viewing and even did a special little slideshow to music of the main event photos. The team worked well with our other vendors (photographers, DJ, coordinators, etc..). I would highly recommend Studio101West photography for any event in which you are wanting quality photos, great service, and a quick turn around time. read more

I needed professional business photos on short notice, and Dennis at Studio 101 West Photography was responsive, professional, and did quality work. We experimented with various wardrobe changes on a couple of different backgrounds, and the shots turned out great. Definitely recommend him and will be using him again in the future. read more

I highly recommend Dennis at Studio 101 West Photography. Dennis took my business portrait and it was the best picture. So when my mom was turning 70 my family came to our house in cayucos. We had Dennis take family portraits on the beach. His price was very reasonable and the photos turned out amazing. If you need any photos no matter the occasion Dennis at Studio 101 West Photography is the one to go to. read more

I highly recommend Dennis at Studio 101 West Photography. He responded quickly to my email inquiry and was able to set up a date for my drone video request on a short notice. The visual image I had imaged in my mind was brought to life with a stunning video I can use to promote my art piece. His was very professional from his expertise in drone videos to his creative input on the various camera angles etc. Thank you so much! read more

My son and daughter in law referred us to Studio 101 West. We wanted a family portrait with our grandchildren. It was very last minute. Studio 101 was very accommodating. We met Dennis two days later in the evening at Heilman park. Dennis was very professional and easy to work with. He got the children to relax and made them comfortable with the poses. Our portraits were beautiful! read more

Dennis did such a great job taking my photo with my dog that I just had to upload it to his Yelp account. He was able to get her to stand still and look at the camera just long enough (she's a lab, so do the math on how hard that was) to get a great shot. read more

Dennis was great! He made the process so easy. I would definitely recommend you use Studio 101 for your photography needs!

I scheduled with Dennis online, which was an easy process. When I arrived for my appointment, Dennis was ready to get started right away. Throughout the process Dennis was personable and easy to work with. Photos were delivered a day earlier than promised. Will definitely use him again in the future if I need another photography session. read more

Wow. When you get a negative review it is easy to play the, you must have the wrong business card, etc. I called your business 805-235-3801. I talked to you and you gave me your name. Since you want to call out my origin of Yelp posting, yes I'm from Las Vegas, but live here on the central coast. Check our my other posts and you will see many from other businesses in this area. You obviously are trying to influence yelp users on the mistaken post. Not a fake review, or post. I stand by what I said. You should know about slander. You post lots of negative reviews to other businesses in this community and slander their names without any conscious. That's real Christian too, coward. read more

I'm a real estate professional and it's tough to get a picture that really looks like you. I called Studio 1010 West Photography. He was able to schedule my picture the next day. He listened to what I was saying and was patient. He took pictures that didn't look 'plastic', changed backgrounds for me, and made a fantastic effort to take a picture that looked like I actually am. I highly recommend this studio. First class. Friendly, professional, reasonable and great quality photos! read more

Absolutely had the best experience with Dennis. He was always quick with responses and made mine and my step daughters photo shoot one to remember. He even added in some pictures of us together at no additional charge, which was the most special moment for me. Pictures look amazing, and he knew what would look good for our taste and our appearance. Thank you so much Dennis! We will be seeing you again NO DOUBT when it's time for family portraits. read more

All I can say about Dennis is - WOW! I am so impressed with the amazing beach photo shoot and family pictures. After photographing our son for his senior picture in 2010 I knew -- it had to be Dennis. He has been able to capture our family better than I could have imagined. Our oldest son just doesn't smile in pictures but he trusts Dennis, and Dennis can bring out his true self. This photo shoot was very important to me. Our oldest has moved to college. Our oldest dog is elderly. I can't thank Dennis enough. Our youngest son is very close to making Eagle. We will see Dennis very soon for his Eagle Scout portrait. He has my business. Loyally. read more

We had professional photos done for our business in Studio 101 West's studio. Dennis was very talented at making us look our best! In fact, I use his photos as my profile photos! Dennis was very courteous and helpful at giving direction as to how to pose for the camera. He has also helped many of our customers with their wedding and family photo shoots, and I always hear good things from them about his work! read more

Dennis was very enjoyable to work with on my recent architectural photography project. He was prompt, professional, well-equipped, flexible and very good at his job--making my building look gorgeous! He went the extra mile to meet the job requirements and his photos were beyond expectations, despite some challenges. I unhesitatingly recommend Dennis Swanson and Studio 101. We all have lots of choices for professional services--I prefer to work with people who are pleasant and upbeat as well as competent--Dennis was all that. Thanks for the great job. read more

Today Dennis did a shoot of my new products. This is the third time I (and my dog came along) have worked with Dennis. I was up against a deadline and asked him if he would please get my photos to me as soon as possible. I left his studio, shopped at Trader Joe's I then took my dog to the park for a run. I arrived home sat down to my computer to check my email and to my BIG surprise, there was an email with all my photos. Working with this man who is an absolute perfectionist is a pleasure, and now my important project is ahead of schedule. Thank's Dennis, Righton Tool Supply Wm. Ford Owner read more

I just got done with my photos and I just couldnt wait to get home and just YELP about my experience!!! Today I had my engagment photos and let me start off by saying I drove several hours in order to have my photos done by this company..and I wouldnt have changed it for the world.. even if a photographer lived next door and offered to do it for free.. I would still pay for Dennis! He is just so easy to work with and so much fun as well!!!! Its always a little hard posing for someone that you dont know very well but after today all my doubts went out the window. He was willing to do ANY shot that we wanted. Especially since we wanted a photo at the beach of a wave taking us out...now not only do we have to get into the freezing water but so did Dennis and he had nooo problem doing what it took to get the shot we wanted! Which is just soooo great!! I highly recommend this business. THANK YOU DENNIS FOR SUCH A GREAT ENGAGEMENT PHOTO SESSION, WE ARE NOW LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR WEDDING DAY PHOTOS!!!!!!!!!!! read more

We hired Dennis to do pictures of our home for marketing purposes. The responses we got within 24 hours of posting the ad blew us away. Not only were the pictures awesome but Dennis was great to work with and a total professional. We were totally happy with the results and the great service. read more

Dennis took our wedding pics and did a very lovely job accommodating guests, doggies and our bridal party. His service was great and he provided awesome products very timely - he also responds very fast to inquiries and accommodated every request I had. I will most certainly use his services again. Our ceremony was in Pismo on a beach cliff while our couple pics were taken on the actual beach. He did a great job with the bright sun, lighting and editing. Very affordable packages available. read more
