fam pics II

Just a few frames from our fun family picture day. I had so much fun just snapping most of the entire time we were there, caught some hilarious things. That is what it is all about.

.local love. [country organics]

Today is yet another edition of my local loves. I love being able to share with others wonderful local things that I believe in, there are really so many amazing little shops and products in our amazing city.

So, today I am featuring Country Organics. The owners Bob and Mandy are friends of ours, Bob and I go way back to our days of working together at Raley’s…..or should I say YEARS of working together there. He was the “produce guy”, and still is just in his own amazing store. Country Organics DELIVERS local organic produce to your DOORSTEP each week. Talk about amazing! They also now have a store front so rather than having a delivery you can go in pick and choose each item AND pick up other organic items from their shelves. I do not know how many times i am out of ONE item, and they seem to have everything right there…it is convenience at it’s best. They carry local Hat Creek beef at an incredible price, it is something that always makes it into my basket. I really cannot say enough great things about this small but rather AMazing business! You MUST go in! Great service, and products! You can get all the info HERE.

OH, and just in case you are wondering. I happen to love this place i call Redding, so i bring you all these local loves ALL on my own. I am a firm believer in sharing the great things i find to others so you too can enjoy amazing things…so NO i am not getting paid in any form to do these. :)

Liz&John

Had the wonderful privilege of capturing Liz and John’s wonderful wedding day. The wedding took place in Weed Ca with a spectacular view of Mt. Shasta directly behind them as they said their vows! They rented a cabin to host the reception, so quaint and perfect along with a huge fire pit and smore fixings it was them to perfection. This is my second wedding for the Rhodes family, and I just adore each one of them.  Liz was a stunning bride, and is an incredible person…I don’t think I have ever seen her without a huge smile on her face. Such a joy to be able to capture such happiness in a couple!

Thank you Liz and John for including me in your special day!

Special thanks to Gwen (the amazing coordinator) for making the day go so smoothly!
