Europa Village — A Rosé Lover’s Dream
If you’re looking for elegance, flavor, and fairytale vibes, Europa Village is your spot. Inspired by old-world European charm, this winery features three distinct experiences—Spanish, French, and Italian villages—each offering their own wines and tasting rooms.
What We Love:
Their Amorie Rosado is a fresh, spring-perfect rosé ideal for sipping with your crew under the sun. Between the charming balconies, vine-covered archways, and blooming gardens, there’s no shortage of dreamy photo opportunities.
Pro Tip:
Book a tasting at Bolero for the full Spanish villa experience. For golden hour photos, aim for a late afternoon shoot—the light here is magical.
Doffo Winery — Bold Reds & Motorcycle Vibes
Doffo Winery is a small-batch, family-owned vineyard known for its award-winning red wines and commitment to sustainable winemaking. What sets Doffo apart is their vintage moto-inspired decor—you’ll find classic motorcycles displayed throughout the property, adding an unexpected twist to your tasting.
What We Love:
Their deep reds pair perfectly with the rustic elegance of the space, making it a great option for moody, editorial-style photos. If you’re into storytelling with grit and glam—this is your winery.
Pro Tip:
Ask about their private tastings for a more intimate experience. Bring sunglasses and neutral-toned outfits—the shadows and contrast here pop beautifully in photos.
Briar Rose Winery — A Fairytale in the Vines
Tucked away in Temecula, Briar Rose Winery looks like it was plucked straight out of a Disney film—and that’s because it kind of was. Designed by a former Disney Imagineer, the property was inspired by the cottage from Sleeping Beauty, and its whimsical charm is still very much alive.
What We Love:
Known for its sweet wines, fruit-forward whites, and romantic setting, this is a favorite among couples, bridal parties, and anyone wanting a soft, enchanting aesthetic.
Pro Tip:
This location shines during weekday mornings when it’s quieter and the lighting is soft. Bring light pastels or floral prints for that fairytale finish.
We specialize in last-minute photography with fast turnaround and beautiful results.
