Vineyard Vows: Capturing Love with Engagement Photos at Paso Robles Winery
This is your sign to get your engagement photos done in a vineyard!
Here are a couple tips when researching the best possible location.
Choose your vibe. Are you a rustic drinker? Do you like more of a sophisticated, elevated atmosphere? Thankfully, Paso Robles has many vineyards and wineries that are perfect for either vibe. Check out Justin Wines for a really sophisticated lunch and superb wines. They’re known for their Cabernet Sauvignons and red blends. We had a moment to taste wines with Iris and Chris at Justin Wines and had the best time! They even got us into wine that day!
If you’re more of a laid-back type of sipper, you may enjoy Stillwaters Vineyards just down the road from Justin. It is a family-owned vineyard and has more of a relaxed atmosphere, with a hill of vineyards just behind its tasting room with plenty of space to roam and take pictures. Iris wanted to get her tall grass in the wind-type shots, and we found a little section at the op of the hill just to get that moment for her and Chris!
Stillwater Vineyards is located about 10 mins outside of the Paso Robles main downtown and gives a homey, casual vibe. Our couple, Iris and Chris just got engaged and thought a fun engagement shoot with wine in hand was perfect! It truly was perfect since these two absolutely love wine (they got us into it too after a day at Justin Vineyards). What we loved about this specific vineyard was that it felt secluded and not too busy with guests this weekend we went (September 2022). We walked a little bit up the hill to capture this Twilight-esque, in the meadow type imagery that Iris envisioned. Glad to see that we can make that vision come to life with videography from Renz!
If you’re ever looking for a place to make a day out of your engagement shoot, consider a vineyard! Check out the album on our Pixieset.

For Iris and Chris, their engagement photoshoot at Stillwaters Vineyard was a dream come true—a celebration of love, laughter, and the promise of forever. Against the backdrop of Paso Robles Wine Country, they created memories that will last a lifetime, capturing the essence of their love amidst the rustic beauty of the vineyard. As they look forward to their wedding day and the adventures that await, they know that their love story began amidst the vines and will continue to blossom for years to come.
