To our friends around the world, old and new…We wish you the merriest of Christmases and a New Year full of fun, health and happiness!

We had a wonderful day out a few weeks ago with Lauren and John, shooting their engagement session in the Napa Valley, which of course included wine tasting:-)

It was a perfect autumnal day – mild and sunny – the vines were a beautiful hue of vivid yellows and rich reds, and Lauren and John, who are very much into wine, had selected a few of their favorite wineries to have their photographs taken.

We started at V.Sattui – a particular favorite of ours too. It was busy (as usual) but we managed to capture Lauren and John enjoying a few quiet moments together. We then called in at Yountville’s Jessup Cellars’ tasting rooms to enjoy a sample of their award winning wines…and buy a couple of bottles! Our last stop of the day took us to Andretti, a Tuscan style winery with its gorgeous ochre washed walls, weathered doors and arched windows – the perfect romantic backdrop to capture a few final shots as the sun went down…
