Inspirational Legends to Keep you Moving Towards Your Goals | THE NAPA VALLEY FILM FESTIVAL
We were fortunate to be behind the scenes again talking it up with some of the most iconic celebrities in Hollywood for the 9th year in a row! This annually attended event, The Napa Valley Film Festival is always sure to draw in some our most talented Hollywood stars as well as some of my fellow peers in the industry. It’s gotten much larger over the years with more celebrity presence and become an even more well dressed affair. For us it’s part work and play. It lands on my birthday ever year so I manage to ensure I’m found walking the red carpet as well behind the camera capturing iconic moments and ensured I’m never to miss a beat. I found my amazing outfit at Shoppe Twelve an amazingly cute popup shop on Main Street in Napa. Each year it’s important for me to dress the part of both looking fabulous on the red carpet as well as being comfort in my outfit which I have to be agile in as I am also behind the scenes operating the camera to provide the best ultimate coverage to capture gorgeous celebs. Among the attendees we conversed with were, You can check out some of the behind the scenes below to see who was in attendance on the red carpet. Also, find some of my fav’s of sponsoring restaurants and Napa Valley businesses. Our very own legend chef Bob Hurley of Hurley’s Restaurant Our videos and photos highlight the best of here!

Nicole’s Interview with Billy Bush
One of our favorite movies: Capernaum.
It’s a poignant movie about making change in the world and I found it to be an absolute must. It gives much perspective of what’s actually happening in other parts of the world that we hadn’t seen or ever fully realized. We had the pleasure of chatting with director Nadine Labaki, and Zain Al Fafeea who was the child main character in the movie (two Photos below by Tony Flores).
We also had the pleasure of interview many celebrities on the red carpet a few of which were Taissa Farmiga.
7 Must do’s when here for the Napa Film Festival:
1. Book your hotel and rental car much in advance to minimize your stress. Napa’s parking as as well as capacity at hotel stays have been limited when we have a huge event like this in town.
2. I highly suggest you grab a copy of the Napa Film Festival Program Book a couple days before the festival in order to strategize which movies you’d like to see since many of the movies overlap and you’ll want to plan accordingly.
3. Research which movies are up for awards and stars & directors are worth watching following the movie. You’ll see most stars that are attending on the red carpet as you head into the movies and directors along with some of the stars being interviewed following the movies in the theater! I strongly recommend highlighting in the program book to discover which movies you want to see.
