Santa Barbara Engagement Session at Knapp Castle

Priscilla and Chris are a passionate couple.  They are passionate about wine… about food… and definitely about sports!

Their love for wine got our day started in Santa Barbara Wine Country at Koehler Winery in Los Olivos.  In one of the BEST wine regions, I might be a little biased, we spent time wine tasting and wandering the immaculate vineyard.  From the tasting room and nearby patio to a large pond with all the rows of grapes in between, it is easy to get lost here.  If you have never heard of Koehler, be sure to check out their Les Trois Cepages (one of Priscilla and Chris’ favorites) or Accomplice (my favorite) blends.  This was a truly epic way to start things off.

As we headed back down to Santa Barbara, where this beautiful couple’s relationship was launched, we made a pitstop at Knapp’s Castle for some quick sunset shots.  We wanted to make sure we took advantage of the gorgeous day but didn’t necessarily want to end up at a crowded beach, so we suggested the amazing little spot we discovered a while back while we were in town for a conference.  Watching these two interact was even more beautiful than the views.  The way Chris holds Priscilla and loves her is truly magical.

From there we headed to O’Malley’s on State St. in Downtown Santa Barbara, a frequent home away from home for these two sports fans.  Decked out in support of their college alma maters, we watched the conclusion of the NBA Western Conference Finals and celebrated.

It was great to have a couple to talk sports with and these two are some diehard sports fans.  It is only fitting, that sports is the thing that brought these two together.  Chris was attending the Men’s Soccer Tournament held at UC Santa Barbara for work and had to retrieve his credentials from Priscilla in the Ticket Office.  Even at this early stage in their relationship, Priscilla was the one in control!

Before heading back home, as any true foodies should do, we all grabbed a slice (New York style) and shared stories.  From reliving college days at UCSB to what is to come on the new season of Orange is the New Black, it was a great evening.

We absolutely cannot wait to celebrate and dance the night away with these two very soon as they become husband and wife!!!
