A.LITTLE.PIECE.OF.FRANCE.
i stepped thru the colorful courtyard and upon entering the door to what i thought looked like the front desk, i was greeted with a warm smile, a warm kitchen, and a warm welcome. i know you may think i should stop typing for a moment and pick up a thesaurus, but i really can’t think of a better way to describe the petit soleil.
from the brief tour and friendly conversation cole, our greeter, offered my bride and i upon our arrival, to dining on the best quiche and french toast i have ever had, served by none other than the charming owners, john & dianne, this little bed-and-breakfast tucked away in san luis obispo, provided a relaxing experience highlighted with details.
carlie and i wanted to get away to recharge and celebrate our 6 month anniversary, and i am so glad that we found this place. turn-down service complete with chocolate truffles, wine and appetizers in the late afternoon... that’s right, i did say chocolate truffles (i felt like a kid blessed with a surprise from the tooth fairy, when we returned to the room and found those two little treats on our pillows).
anyways, carlie and i had a great trip. we doted on each other, and soaked up a relaxing couple of days in the sleepy little town of slo. i found some time to grab a few shots around the grounds, and also spent some time with this super-hot-up-and-coming super-model (check back later for the images from our shoot).
here is a small taste of petit soleil. bon apetit...
john & dianne nailed every detail, even down to the bi-lingual "do not disturb" sign
this is what the best quiche in the world looks like... oh, it looks like you were too late.
Awesome! I love the images of the wagon!

ReplyDeleteAWESOME Gabriel! I seriously LOVE all these images! These rock!! If I owned this place, I'd use that first one in my marketing - it's just so charming!
ReplyDeleteI love how you call Carlie "your bride" all the time. It's too cute! p.s. Thank her for the comment on my cookie entry if you would. It was a surprise and thrill to get a little comment from her. :)
That place is simply amazing. Great shots.
