Jack and Candace both have huge hearts, they are perfect together. Jack has a passion for photography and has some amazing images from his time spent traveling in Africa, working along side my grandparents. Candace is sweet and fun and was such a joy to photograph!

Jack and Candace, we wish you the best and we can't wait to see where your next adventure leads you!

Our favorite vineyard... Alexandria Nicole Cellars in Horse Heaven Hills where my great grandfather drilled wells for the farmers one hundred years ago.

This has to be simply one of the most dramatic photo's that has ever been taken of Destiny Ridge Vineyard. You have captured the experience that my wife and I have wanted to share with our friends since we planted the vineyard in 1998. All I can say is thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting into a single picture a decade of dreams for us.

This is why they call it Horse "Heaven" HIlls. The real beauty of Destiny Ridge is best seen thru starlight. This is the place for dreams for a lot of us.
