Adrift Hospitality: Adrift Hotel, shelburne Pub & hotel

Hey friends! So, I wanted to tell you all about this super fun shoot I did with Adrift Hospitality recently. We started off at the Adrift down in Long Beach, and let me tell you, it was such a cute place. The coffee bar and lobby were just so Instagram-worthy, I couldn't stop snapping photos. Then again, it was my job to be there taking photos, but that's beside the point. The bagels and croissants were so fresh and delicious, and the latte made by the barista working that particular Monday was just perfect. We got some fun shots in the lobby before heading just right down the road to the Shelburne Pub & Hotel.

At the Shelburne, we were greeted with cocktails (yes, please!). I tried my very first Perfect Manhattan and it was surprisingly really good, even for someone who isn't a big whiskey fan. Perfect, if you will. My model, Shawntelle, had the Bees Knees and it looked amazing. Then I was on to the food photography - the most delicious steak frites and a gorgeous pnw cheese board, along with a few other amazing dishes. The food was not only beautiful but also so tasty - my boyfriend was raving about the steak, and he ate it the next day for lunch. So that's damn good steak. And don't even get me started on the stained glass windows at the hotel, they were absolutely stunning.

Overall, it was such a fun and creative shoot, and if you keep scrolling, you'll get a glimpse into this fun collaboration. Can't wait for the next adventure! If you'd like to join me on my next collaborative and creative shoot, don't hesitate to reach out!
