This weekend I am heading up to Santa Barbara for a friend’s wedding and in thinking about it I realized I am a real Santa Barbara fan. I love the terraine, the vineyards, the landscape and the rich history. Two of my favorite photographers (Jose Villa and Elizabeth Messina) hail from the Santa Barbara area and they shoot some amazing weddings in Santa Barbara. Below are some of the images of Santa Barbara and the surrounding areas that I find truly inspiring.
My Favorite Winery to visit: Alma Rosa Winery and Vineyards
