When I say I grew up in the small town of Mendocino, most people look at me with doubtful eyes and wonder if it is true...believe me, kids do grow up here! I moved here when I was 8 and had the best carefree upbringing a country girl could wish for; building forts in the trees, collecting sea glass on the beach and falling asleep to the frogs croaking in our pond. I have visited my parents over the years and thought someday I will return to live the good life again. Well, the time has come....I'm heading home to help my Mom with the B&B and Farmhouse weddings and going to run Clever Girl from the North Coast. I will of course still do events where ever my clients need me; most of which are in the wine country anyway, but I will no longer be a city mouse / hooray!! Stay tune for an amazing style shoot by Edyta Szyszlo (photographer featured here) + me...it is pretty darn cute & features some local folks.....check in often to see when the shoot will post.
Meanwhile, come visit me or my Mom or both, the chickens, have a glass of wine in the meadow and watch our
practically tame deer eat grass 5 feet away from your toes...not kidding! -your clever girl, Karin
