Beer, Beautiful, Beer!
Monterey Coast Brewing not only brews their own beers, they also have a friendly staff, serve delicious food and they have a nice banquet room in the back of the restaurant. The atmosphere is warm and family-friendly, yet still a great place to hang out with friends and have a locally brewed beer- my favorite? The sampler- a set of seven distinctly different flavors all in a row, so I don’t have to decide. Monterey Coast Brewing is located at 165 Main Street in Salinas, near the Steinbeck Center.
Happy Mother’s Day!
One of the things I love about my job is spending time with wonderful families like this one. I wanted to share this family session close to Mother’s Day and I think you’ll understand why when you see it. Pia and Brian both have such a wonderful rapport with their kids. These photos were taken on a warm sunny morning in Carmel Valley’s Garland Ranch Regional Park with the blue lupine in full bloom.
My Foray into Advertising
Check out my new postcard! I’ve just started handing it out and I wanted to put it up here for all those people who might not stumble on to one. Thanks to all those who agreed to be pictured on the card, including my own son who didn’t get much say in the matter- although he does refer to it as “my postcard,” so I guess he’s OK with it. Please scroll down to the next blog post to see a few photos of the wedding couple featured on the card.
From the Archives
Recently I’ve begun handing out the postcard shown above. (And with it the introduction of a “Pricing” section on this website.) On the card I’ve included a photo from a wedding I photographed a few years ago. I’ve always loved the photo and when I created my card I wanted it to represent the budding wedding photography element of my business. The lovely couple, and friends of mine, Russ and Donna, were kind enough to let me share this photo and a few other favorites from their day. They were married in a Buddhist ceremony in the chapel on the beautiful and historic Asilomar conference grounds in Pacific Grove, just a short board-walk from the beach.
