From time to time, my wife and I talk about how we wish we could freeze time and enjoy our family as it is forever. Townsley Portraits has made that possible.

Stuart Townsley was actually our wedding photographer and has been a friend ever since. When he started his own photo studio, we decided to ask Stuart if we could set-up a session for us and our son. We met him at the Santa Monica Pier,  in Los Angeles,  and spent about 30 minutes just playing around the area and letting Stuart snap away. A few weeks later, we met again at the Townsley Portraits photo studio and showroom and saw the amazing photographs he had taken. They were breathtaking, and we wanted every one of them.

While walking from an amazing breakfast at Joe’s Cafe, I decided to drop by and check out Madison Avenue Salon.  While there are many beauty salons in the North San Fernando Valley, I was amazed at the quality of care I received at Madison Avenue Salon in Granada Hills, California.  The salon boasts a sophisticated flair typically found in the Beverly Hills, but sits on Chatsworth Street in charming Granada Hills.

Frank “Jack” Flam of Flam’s Lock & Key welcomed me with open arms without any appointment and gave me a full tour of his shop. We discussed the importance of having a qualified, and bonded, locksmith. It had never occurred to me to ask a locksmith if they were bonded before, but he explained to me that when working with a locksmith you are giving someone complete access to your home or business and should make sure they are working in a manner that would give you an ability to feel as if they operate professionally with the necessary credentials.
