Local Photographers Release 2025 Calendars
Two North Coast photographers have both released 2025 calendars featuring their work and the beauty of our area. Both have contributed to Estero Bay News in past issues.
– Paul Irving has produced a local wall calendar for the past several years. As an avid waterman, he gets out on the bay several times a week with the Baywood Rowing Club. With thousands of miles on the bay over the years, he’s able to capture images and angles from around the bay that most people will never see. Follow Paul on Facebook & Instagram to see fresh images daily: @BaywoodPhoto
Supplies are running out of the 2025 Baywood Photo calendars, so if you want one (or more to share), grab them now at BaywoodPhoto.com. They make great gifts and you can share our beautiful corner of the world with friends & family who aren’t here to enjoy it in person.
– Cayucos photographer Danna Dykstra-Coy is selling her 2025 Danna Joy Images photo art calendars with select scenes from Cayucos and Morro Bay for the 7th year. The $20 calendars are high gloss, saddlestitch-bound and sealed for gift giving.
Dykstra-Coy offers free local delivery or $5 shipping per order at www.dannajoyimages.com. Find her calendars in Morro Bay at Morro Made and Coalesce Bookstore and in Cayucos at Cayucos Pharmacy and Illuminate Spa & Boutique. She also sells photo Christmas cards at Morro Made, Illuminate and Sea Shanty.
Dykstra-Coy, a 30-year Cayucos resident, is the administrator/photographer for the San Luis Obispo County Improvement District’s (CBID) @cayucosca Instagram and Cayucos, CA Facebook social media accounts. Santa at the
