Our photos fall into two categories: database and clilent sponsored. Right clicking on an image should enlarge it.

• Database:  We have included samples of our database images on this website.  They are shot with publications in mind; generally in RAW to give flexibility of format and size.  These are intended to support articles on the Santa Barbara Wine Country and the wine industry in general.  If you are interested in a specific image--e.g. a grape varietal, a specific vineyard, winery, or winemaker; a region, etc.--contact us and we'll see if we have one and/or can take one.  
• Events: When our event photos are not proprietary, we've loaded them on Kodak Gallery.  You can check the link(s) that appeal to you and scroll through them.  You can also order from Kodak directly.  We don't get any commission, but we don't have to print photos, so it works out well.  If you have an event you'd like photographed, contact us.  wineguydotcom@yahoo.com
