Art at Savoury's

For those of you local Mariposaians (is that even a word?) when I mention Savoury's, your mouth starts to salivate just a little at thoughts of delicious meals. Since we moved to this area over five years ago, we have enjoyed many a tasty meal with good friends and family here. Savourys' owner Miriam has created her own space in the middle of this little town offering some of the finest food available anywhere. And when she moved into a new building last year, Miriam completely remodeled the interior to fit her exact needs, including bringing in a selection of photographs from the Ansel Adams Gallery. Seriously, how cool is that?

So when I ran into her a few weeks ago and she asked me to display some of my photography at an upcoming event, I looked at her for quite a while before asking if she knew that I only shoot weddings. Even though I shoot weddings as art, I have never heard of displaying wedding image in a gallery setting, especially not the Ansel Adams Gallery.

Finally the night came and the party was here. Miriam created a fine selection of delicious tapas to pair with an assortment of wines, brought by four different wineries including our local Mt. Bullion Winery. I sampled wines from Argentina, Italy, and Spain while visiting with friends old and new. All the while, my wedding prints were proudly hung side by side with prints from the Ansel Adams Gallery.





Huge thanks to Miriam and her crew for putting together such a wonderful event for our community.
