Fun Engagement Pictures at Wilson Creek Winery in Temecula
One of my favorite wineries in Temecula is Wilson Creek Winery. Not just because of the beautiful landscaping, architecture, and vineyards but also because of the staff there are so friendly and warm. If any of you are looking for a fantastic wedding venue with a good heart, please consider Wilson Creek Winery because they are one of the best!
Jeff and Sharon had a lot of fun during our engagement session at Wilson Creek, as you can see in the photos. They were all smiles and definitely in love. We just hung out and worked together to get some natural and creative engagement photos for Sharon to use on her “Save the Date” cards. After about an hour God decided it was time for some rain. So we headed inside and got a few pictures in front of the beautiful Christmas tree that Wilson Creek has on display. Sharon loves Christmas so I am glad that we got these last photos.
Oh but wait, Jeff had a great idea of me getting some photos of them running through the rain. GREAT IDEA! So I went ahead and prepared for some action shots. When Jeff and Sharon got halfway to the parking lot, they stopped and kissed in the pouring rain which was perfect for a photography at Wilson Creek Winery. Sharon didn’t even know it was coming nor did I! It was pretty romantic and a great memory for them! This wasn’t the first time Jeff stepped up, he also found a rose for her and it was perfect for my style of candid photos.
























Im so excited for their wedding this spring and cant wait to photograph their BIG day. They are such a joyful couple I am sure the wedding is going to be a lot of fun!
Engagement Photographer in Temecula Wine Country
This engagement photography session at Long Shadow Ranch in Temecula wine country was destined for gorgeous photos. What more can a photographer ask for than a beautiful setting and a beautiful couple that is so excited to get married! Cory and Erica have known each other for a long time, but just recently got engaged.
Cory will be deploying in the spring, and rather than wait more than a year to get married they decided to tie the knot before he leaves. I think that is a great decision, there is no reason to wait. When the right person comes around and you feel that its right, go for it. Its one of those things that you feel in your gut and you don’t have a second thought about it. Cory and Erica are a perfect match.
Long Shadow Ranch was a great setting for their engagement session. Its winter and the vines still have the leaves with all those red, orange and green fall colors! It actually started to rain right before we were finished. In some of the photos when you zoom in you can see little streaks of small rain drops! Long Shadow has amazing wine and I highly recommend going tasting there sometime. In fact, they also have live bands play there a lot. Plan a day to come out and I guarantee you wont regret it!























Engagement Photographs at Carrillo Ranch in Carlsbad
We had a great time at the Carrillo Ranch in Carlsbad capturing Ashley and Jeremy’s engagement photographs. The peacocks were running around and natural light was beautiful. The ranch is pretty historic, founded in the 1800’s and still standing with most of the original building materials. If your wondering if they hold weddings they do! Yeah, they actually have a pretty cool setup and there is so much space there.
Ashley and Jeremy have been dating for a year or so and really excited to get married. After hanging out with them for an afternoon its pretty obvious they were meant for each other. As you can see in the engagement photos they are so cute together. Not just because of the country style outfits and their willingness to get close together for photos! They are just a perfect match, something words cant describe!
Enough of my rambling now to Ashley and Jeremy’s engagement session…

















I would love an opportunity to capture wedding photographs at the Leo Carrillo Ranch. If your getting married there give me a call and I can tailor a special wedding package for you.
Sweet and Natural Engagement Photography in Temecula Ca

Couple’s Photography in Temecula
What a beautiful evening in Temecula it was for capturing Valerie and Nathan’s engagement photos. They chose the Monte De Oro Winery as the setting. After some wine tasting we headed out to their gorgeous vineyard to start the engagement photography.
The end of summer is great for this, because the vines are really lush and green still and the grapes are ripe and still hanging on the vines! We had a blast walking around capturing creative pictures of them just being themselves and smiling! Valerie was awesome at hiking around in her heels, she’s got skills in those heels!
I could tell Shane knows he is a very blessed man to have found his true love. He was a good sport the entire time, and when we wanted to take a few more shots after the sun went down and our time was up, he was still smiling! It was a real pleasure capturing their engagement photographs at Monte de Oro Temecula Winery.
I love being a Photographer in Temecula. The weather is awesome practically year round, which means I can always go outside and do what I love! Having Temecula Wine Country literally in my backyard is awesome. and so convenient.
