This group shoot location offers lots of opportunities to photograph a variety of subjects and try different photographic techniques. Their website http://bernardowinery.com/ provides a good “heads-up” into the full range of these opportunities, as well as other non-photographic leisure activities that can be enjoyed after your memory cards are full. As you might expect from a venue that is over 100 years old, there is a potpourri of antiques from knickknacks to tractors. The outdoor setting also offers shots of grapes (in the vineyards), flowers, bugs and birds.  Capture the history and ambiance of the winery in any number of creative ways . . . experiment with different lens combinations, seek out interesting and challenging lighting scenarios, or pre-visualize some cool post-processing technique you want to try.

 

Those interested can plan to meet for lunch at noon on the premises at Café Merlot ( http://bernardowinery.com/villageshops/cafe-merlot/ ).

 

The Bernardo Winery is located off of Pomerado Road in Rancho Bernardo, North San Diego County. While traveling to Bernardo Winery, you will drive through a retirement community, keep on Paseo Del Verano until you see the winery entrance on the east side of the street.
