Plantation Fun

It's always fun when our jobs take us to fun places and really cool events. Such was the case this past Saturday. Earlier this year we gained a new client who owns a plantation in Taylors, SC - Lindsey Plantation. The owner's name is Estela and she's lots of fun to be around, and when you're lacking energy she is the go-to gal. She works many long hours on her farm/plantation to make everything gorgeous, take care of the many resident horses and various other animals, and just all that fun day-to-day stuff that apparently comes with running a place like hers. Honestly, I don't know if she ever stops!
Well, one of our jobs for her was actually her website, and we needed to get some more photos to keep it fresh and updated. Eli has taken a good bit of the photos on her site, but not all, so it's always cool when we get to add more.

So this past week she extended an invite to us to a Spanish Wine Dinner they were going to host at the plantation and we were asked to shoot some photos of the event to add to the website. We were more than happy to oblige! They turn the very large stable into a huge party room and let me tell you it's really impressive. All the little details are paid attention to and it's all so beautiful and authentic. One of the perks for us was getting to partake in the 3 course delicious meal catered by Table 301 including salad, chicken paella, and a delicious dessert tray, paired with a couple great wines.


After the food was served the partying started with a performance of 3 lovely flamenco dancers doing a few numbers (one of the dancers was Estela herself - didn't I tell you she has energy!). We took our leave shortly thereafter, but had such a great time! It's these fun occasional jobs with great food and fun people that make a REALLY long night of work totally worthwhile.

Well, I guess that wraps it up for now!
