Welcome back to the 'Morba Gould BLOG' featuring our most recent portrait

and wedding events. It has been a while since our last posting but everything

is in full swing for the rest of the wedding season and we have plenty of new

photos to show you.

This photo shoot took place at the 'Carmelite Monastery' in Carmel and we got

off to a great start. Tara and family were totally ready to go!

Ted and their new baby Brandon - a perfect fit!

Lena and Zuess...

... and then a few shots of Mom and Dad - they totally lit up for this shoot!

We actually spent quite some time working this bench location to get these shots and it paid off.

This structure is on the Mission tour and was built in 1925 - the backdrops

are incredible!

Let's go for the ocean view and hang out in Carmel.

Joy and happiness. It's what makes these moments so important.

Tara and baby Brandon hanging out on the lawn. Brandon was a joy to shoot

and always put on his happy face!

We spent roughly 90 minutes doing this shoot and the energy kept getting

better and better...

As we started to rap the photo shoot Brandon gave this great memory! Time goes

fast and we captured some moments that will be treasured forever - it's all about

feeling comfortable with your photographer and producing quality images that will

last a lifetime!

We'll see you soon! Thanks for checking in.

Sitting right on the beach in Monterey is Adventures by the Sea which hosts

some of the best beach parties on the Monterey Peninsula!

This is a beautiful spot for a weddiing, party or conference.

This benefit was for Chelsea who was injured in a car accident and needed help with some medical bills - the silent auction was a great way to bring in some extra dollars.

The attendance was over 400 people at $30 per person... this was a total

success!

Zo from the Money Band sporting his new girlfriend and some fun had by all!

Chelsea (lower left corner) chatting with folks.

Mac MacDonald from the Monterey County Weekly Go Magazine and the woman

who made it all happen - Tanya's first time organizing!

PIcture yourself here with your friends hanging out with a drink and listening to some awesome music!

We got a few shot of Cheeky Spanks - classic rock and more!

No beach around here is the same without dogs!

Chelsea goes for a spin on her new beach mobile! We wish her the best of

luck in the future!

We have many requests for 'flushmount' wedding albums so we decided to revisit some of the different styles to give you a better idea of how they

look and how they are constructed. The sky is the limit in terms of size and the number of pages you can put into these albums!

Different materials are shown here including silk fabrics, leather and leatherette products.

Another cross section of the spine construction - these books are library bound and made to last!

Album design is our specialty and everything is done in house.

How the album looks when laid flat - these books are finished to perfection!

How the book looks when opened - they lay flat and are very easy to view.

Different cover materials are offered including metals - copper shown here.

Give you book a little more pizzazz with cover openings!

Another example of how we design - simple and elegant is our preferred style!

We hope you enjoyed this quick tour of our flushmount wedding albums!

Hello, Hello!

This is the perfect time to be focusing on marketing for your business and photography is the essential piece of the puzzle.

The Carmel Resort Inn, Casa de Carmel and The Monte Verde Inns asked us

to give them a photo makeover for their new and upcoming website.

It took two days to shoot and we highlighted their most popular rooms - Innkeeper Thom added some beautiful finishing touches and we came up with some

great results!

Check out these highlights from all three Inns and don't forget to stop by and check out the rooms when you're in Carmel!

See ya soon

The Carmel Resort Inn - comfortable.

Casa de Carmel - very charming!

The rooms at The Monte Verdi - extra pillows and extra comfort.

The Monte Verdi - feels like Greece!

The courtyard at the Monte Verdi.

Beautiful bathrooms at the Monte Verdi!

Hey everyone!

Wedding season is underway and we're mixing it up with family portraits

as well.

Tarnalee was a perfect subject and we couldn't help but think modeling

is in her future.

Dartanian is a robust 2 year old with energy to burn. The photo shoot was one hour and this little guy turned it on for the camera.

We used the bouncing balls as a theme for added color.

Finally the shot we were looking for.

We loved this shot. Tarnalee has the meditation pose down.

It was a fun and colorful shoot that Mom will cherish for years to come.

See you soon!
