Good morning and happy Friday! Today I am so excited to be sharing with you some of our newest TuesdaysTogether groups! As our groups grow throughout the country and the world, we decided it would be fun to give you a peek into some of their cities, with a guide to some of their favorite hang-outs. Without further ado, get an inside look at Thousand Oaks, California, Visalia, California and Dayton, Ohio.

Tell us about yourself in one sentence:
I’m a wedding photographer located in Southern California and loving being a wife, mom and business owner!
Your favorite local hangout?
The beach! Something about it really calms me. Plus, the kids really love it there so we go to the beach as often as we can.
Your favorite local cuisine?
Sushi from Sugarfish. With a giant pile of ginger on the side! 🙂
What’s your favorite thing about your city?
Thousand Oaks is a family friendly town. I love that there are tons of parks, great schools, and lots of kid-friendly activities to do… But really, I love Thousand Oaks for its proximity to so many of gorgeous hiking trails, open spaces, and the beach for photos! I’m so lucky to have access to all these beautiful backdrops for my couples!

Tell us about yourself in one sentence:
Hi, I’m Christy! I’m a wife, pup mom, wedding photographer based in Central California and I have a beautifully strange addiction for coffee and peanut butter!
Your favorite local hangout?
Visalia has a vibrant downtown with delicious restaurants, concert venues, shopping and some really cute and welcoming coffee shops. Tazzaria is my favorite spot to spend Friday mornings sipping on my morning coffee.
Your favorite local cuisine?
Gosh this is a hard choice since Visalia is know for its food. Today I’d have to say Keothip Thai Cuisine!
What’s your favorite thing about your city?
It’s locations! Visalia is nestled perfectly in the middle of California. It’s easy to hop in your car and within an hour or two you can spend the day among the giant trees at Sequoia National Park and Yosemite National Park or bask in the sun on one of California’s amazing central coast beaches. You don’t have to travel far to have a beautiful weekend getaway!

I’m a small town girl with big dreams, a newlywed, dog mom, and pancake enthusiast who loves photographing weddings!

I love exploring the Historic Oregon District! Dayton has always been known for its industrial history, and the Oregon District is a hidden gem! Besides beautiful historic homes, the area is filled with breweries, distilleries, restaurants and quirky shops!
Your favorite local cuisine?
I LOVE the Butter Cafe! Everything is freshly made, free-range raised, and there are many gluten free and vegan options! The Classic Club and homemade chips are amazing!!
What’s your favorite thing about your city?
I love the history we have and the direction of our future. In it’s day, Dayton was booming with industrial and manufacturing excellence. Now, the dynamics are changing and I think the creatives are going to transform the city! It is full of potential and so inspiring!
