Review via yelp.com

“I was recently at The Country House Location for an editorial photo shoot. I was pleasantly surprised by Michelle and Andre’s warm welcome. They had nice strong Cuban coffee and fresh orange juice ready for us as well as some delicious local peaches and plums to hold us over until our fresh home made egg sandwiches (on croissants) were ready. We all headed over to the prepping room where we set up hair, makeup and wardrobe and got straight to work. After about an hour or so in walked Andre to check in on us with a pitcher of cucumber iced water and a bowl of fresh fruit. Back to work we went after a nice sip of refreshing water. When it was time to head out into the fields of tall grass I realized I didn’t bring my sunglasses with me. Michelle came to my rescue, she loaned me an extra pair she had. The shoot was well underway, under the hot sun. To our surprise we spot Michelle in the distance, as she approaches we notice she is carrying a plate of sliced watermelon and a bag. She check in on us leaving the watermelon and bag of cold beverages with us, making sure we have everything we needed before heading back to the house. At lunch time we went into the house and feasted on delicious homemade Mexican inspired meal. Guacamole, grilled chicken with grilled veggies…  Mmmmmmmmm… all washed down with sparkling lime water.  I’m in heaven.. Oh wait, I forgot about desert, homemade lime sorbet with a slice of grilled pineapple. There are no words to describe my state of bliss at this point in the day. The only thing that made it better was left overs I got to take home with me for the ride back to the city. If you are looking for a beautiful location to shoot your next story check out The Country House Location and make sure you say hi to Michelle and Andre for me.”
