Carmel Valley will always be home for me. I grew up on a property that backed against the river and all of my childhood days were spent outside exploring with the hills as the backdrop. Working at Bernardus is a perfect combination of Carmel Valley relaxation and European style elegance.

I am a big softy now when it comes to babies. I used to be lukewarm about all things baby until I had my own, and now the mere glimpse of a baby smile or toe has me tearing up. When Meg asked me to help capture her sweet babe and her amazing quilt at their home, I couldn’t believe my luck. I know love between mothers and babies is unparalleled, but seeing it through a super 8 lens was heartwarming to say the least.

Meg is a creative force, which is apparent when you meet her, and even more so if you are lucky enough to be invited to her home. It is welcoming and stunning and completely and truly Meg. She is an artist on many levels and I hope that comes across in this film.

Thank you Meg and Charlie for being the cutest duo that could ever be.
