Ponte Winery, Temecula Ca. – Brad and Gladys

By Austin | Published July 23, 2010

Ponte Winery is a beautiful family estate winery in the heart of Temecula wine country. Not only do they have fantastic wines, but their location is stunning and their staff is extremely friendly and easy going! Tori, their onsite coordinator, was extremely helpful and fun to be around and she kept their day flowing effortlessly. I shot Brad and Gladys’ engagement session there a few months back and we had so much fun that day that I knew that their wedding was going to be an amazing experience. And it was! Gladys selected a beautiful color scheme that really popped when set against the lush greens of the vineyard and it’s surroundings. Both Brad and Gladys are two of the kindest and warm hearted people I have worked with and it was an absolute delight to be a part of their day. Enjoy!

Ponte Winery – Brad and Gladys’ Engagement Session

By Austin | Published April 20, 2010

This was an amazing day! I met Brad and Glady’s out at Ponte Winery in Temecula, CA for a fun filled day of photos, good food, and lots of laughs! Brad and Gladys are getting married at Ponte this summer and wanted to do their engagement photos there so we could get familiar with the venue and scout some of the locations together in advance. Good news is there won’t be a shortage of amazing places to use for shooting! They came prepared with some fun ideas for the shoot as well. Brad’s last name is Tally and so they brought a bottle of white wine by Tally vineyards that we used, and Gladys is a big fan of color so we made use of a really fun shade umbrella as well as great scarves etc. Unfortunately the vines were not in full bloom while we were there, but I noticed a fantastic orange grove just across the street from Ponte that we ended up using for some really fun photos that really allowed us to capitalize on colors and matched well with the color schemes Brad and Gladys had already selected. We had such a great time getting lost in the groves and playing around in the vineyard and the food at Ponte is amazing. Thanks to Brad and Gladys for an amazing day!
