Nathan Goodwin Photography

As one of the preferred photographers at Villa De Amore in Temecula’s Wine Country, I’ve had the honor of documenting many love stories at this stunning all-inclusive estate. It’s one of my favorite venues—not just for its breathtaking vineyard views and golden-hour light, but for the endless variety of photo opportunities it offers. From intimate courtyards and romantic barrel rooms to sweeping vineyard backdrops and lively dance floors, every corner of Villa De Amore feels designed for timeless imagery. Having worked here extensively, my team and I know the flow of the property, the staff, and the little hidden spots that make each wedding unique.

Whether you’re dreaming of classic portraits, candid storytelling or a cinematic film you’ll relive for generations, my team and I bring the experience, familiarity and artistry to make your Villa De Amore wedding unforgettable.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Nathan and his team photograph our wedding at Villa de Amore and it was one of the best decisions we made. They were so kind, professional and genuinely fun to work with. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, gave us so much encouragement and just the right direction to capture the most beautiful photos.

I had a very specific vision and inspiration board going into our wedding and they brought it to life better than I could have imagined. They perfectly understood the aesthetic I was aiming for and captured it so beautifully. They paid attention to all the little details that mattered most and somehow managed to capture both, the big and small moments throughout the day.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who will understand your vision, make you feel confident and deliver a gallery that exceeds every expectation, I can’t recommend Nathan and his team enough. They gave us memories we’ll treasure for a lifetime and we are beyond grateful.

Nathan was so encouraging through the planning process and during the wedding day itself, and always supported what we wanted. He was incredibly communicative during the planning process and was quick to respond to our questions and ideas. We had put together a Pinterest board with poses and ideas that we liked, and on the day of our wedding, he made sure to bring those ideas to life while also allowing us to be fully present on one of the best days of our lives.

When we received our gallery, we loved seeing the beautiful moments between the two of us, but what meant just as much were all the moments we didn’t even know had happened. Nathan and his team captured our family and friends laughing and celebrating together. Those candid moments were such a nice surprise because we were able to experience parts of our wedding day that we had completely missed. Looking through our photos truly felt like reliving the day all over again - Nathan and his team truly captured the magic of how the day felt. We will treasure these memories for the rest of our lives, and we couldn’t recommend Nathan more highly to any couple looking for a team that genuinely cares about you and making the most of your big day!

Nathan, our lead photographer, was absolutely incredible. From the moment he arrived, he made us feel completely at ease. He was organized, professional, creative, and had such a calm confidence that made the entire day stress-free. He knew exactly how to capture every important moment while keeping everything natural and fun. Looking through our photos, we're amazed at how beautifully he documented not just the big moments, but all the little emotions that made our wedding so special.
Nicole, his assistant photographer, was equally amazing. She brought such a positive and encouraging energy throughout the day and was always there to help with anything we needed. Whether she was fixing a dress, helping us get into position, or capturing moments from another perspective, she went above and beyond. She made us feel so comfortable and genuinely cared about making our day perfect.
Together, Nathan and Nicole were the perfect team. They worked so seamlessly that everything felt effortless, and their chemistry made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The photos are beyond anything we could have imagined, and we'll treasure them for the rest of our lives.
If you're looking for photographers who are not only incredibly talented but also amazing people to have by your side on one of the biggest days of your life, Nathan and Nicole are the team to book. We couldn't recommend them more highly. Thank you both for giving us memories we'll cherish forever!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When we decided on VDA for our wedding we were given options for photographers, Nathan’s gallery was extraordinary in a way where it seemed effortless while getting all of the detailed shots that a bride and groom could want! Nathan and his team were great at posing and making sure it was not too posed, I felt that all of the moments were captured and they listened to what I wanted or needed.  They were great about timing and not rushing I couldn’t recommend Nathan more!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nathan is amazing! Definitely book him for your next photoshoot! We had such a wonderful experience with our maternity photoshoot. Being able to do the session at home with our dogs made it feel relaxed and extra special. He made everything easy, gave clear direction while still letting us be ourselves. The photos turned perfect, I literally can't stop looking at them. They have the sweet, warm, candid feel we had envisioned. We're so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully, no one else could have captured it like he did. If you’re looking for someone to capture your most meaningful moments in a natural and timeless way, I would highly recommend

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I absolutely adored working with Nathan and his team. My husband and I had booked him for our engagement shoot as well as photo/video on our wedding day. He made us feel at ease and was so quick in communication. He also went above and beyond to be send some recommendations for photo ops, advice, and poses for us 😊

My mom saw how attentive and efficient the team was during our wedding day and wants to book Nathan someday as well 😆 We definitely look forward to booking him again for any important events in the future!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience working with Nathan has been nothing short of incredible! He shot my wedding at Villa de Amore in Temecula, and he was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! He is professional, kind, thorough, and was always quick to respond to any questions we had throughout the wedding planning process. On the day of the wedding, he helped the flow of the evening move according to plan while also capturing all of our special moments. My husband and I aren’t the most natural in front of the camera, but Nathan made us feel so comfortable and was able to capture our love through his photos! Definitely hire him for your wedding.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nathan and the crew took photos for me and my wife in Temecula at Villa de Amore and I could not rave more about the photos. Not only was everyone so kind and accommodating, they truly captured the magic of the day and our love. Everyone I show the photos to gushes over them and calls them majestic and regal. My spouse and I are enthralled with the photos and the service and could not recommend Nathan more! We’d definitely rate 100 stars if possible!

Capturing the Way It Felt

My style is documentary meets editorial—an approach that allows your story to breathe while still giving it shape.

My team and I are always photographing, always tuned in to the quiet in-betweens and the loud bursts of joy, letting the day flow as it was meant to. Laughter spilling out in the courtyard, a quick hug exchanged between old friends, the details you’d miss if you blinked—these are the moments I treasure and preserve.

Onsite, we work with a presence that’s calm and attentive—never intrusive, never staged beyond what feels natural. We will gently guide when the light is just right or when a bit of direction helps create something timeless, but the heart of your gallery will be the moments that unfolded honestly. My goal is to make the experience fun and comfortable, even if you don’t love being in front of the camera.

Then comes the editing, where the story is refined. My style leans into warm, filmic tones and soft, natural contrast, creating a cinematic feel that’s modern yet timeless. Colors remain true, skin tones stay natural, and the overall finish has the richness of film without feeling dated or trendy. The result is a collection of images that feel both beautifully unplanned and artfully curated—a true reflection of the day you lived and the love you shared.

✅ What You Get

A blend of documentary and editorial photography
Candid moments that unfold naturally, guided with gentle direction when needed
A relaxed, fun experience with a team you can vibe with—perfect even if you’re camera-shy
Images described by couples as cinematic, filmic, and modern—not stiff
Storytelling that captures the true emotions and energy of your day

❌ What You Don’t Get

Stiff, overly posed photos that don’t feel like you
Forced smiles or awkward directions
A photographer who interrupts or takes over your day
Overly trendy edits that won’t age well
Missed moments because I “waited for the perfect shot”

“Nathan and his team are a delight to work with. Nathan is phenomenal with communication and direction, we felt comfortable the entire time. We kept telling him we trusted him through the process, from our engagement shots, to the actual wedding day, and he more than delivered. There were a good mix of classic shots, but also the sweetest candid moments, and the coolest party shots. Looking back through our pictures was such a joyous moment. It felt like reliving our wedding day as we laughed and cried all over again. Also, the videos he edited were amazing! We felt like he truly understood our personalities and dynamic, and you could feel it through the work. He made our wedding video trailer look like the blockbuster hit of the summer! Our jaws were on the floor, and I cannot stop watching it.

When I got to my venue on the day of the wedding, the first thing my coordinator said to me was that Nathan and his team were already there and they were some of the nicest photo teams they’ve ever met. We knew it from the beginning, we were in good hands, but Nathan, you exceeded all of our expectations. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for everything. We will forever be grateful.”

“Nathan and his assistant Nicole were so incredible on our wedding day. They were attentive, kind, funny, and so welcoming. My husband and I felt so at ease photographing with them and they got so many beautiful candid moments as well as created the most stunning posed photos as well. We never felt forced to take pictures and they were just there as a part of our wonderful day. Nathan secretly filmed moments for us during the day that he felt we would want to see, and that surprise was so amazing to see. They were mine and Josiah’s biggest supporters as well as protectors during that day and did a great job of removing us from any chaos before we even noticed it. 1000000/10 experience, and we will definitely be recommending them to our friends in the future. What lovely people on top of a perfect day.”

“We made the decision to have Nathan and his team of photographers/videographers for our wedding day at Villa De Amore in Temecula, and we firmly believe it was the best decision we made in terms of vendor decisions. Nathan was superb at communicating from the time we decided to move forward with them all the way through the day prior and the day of the wedding. He worked with our needs for a set shot list and made the entire day feel super smooth. We received a set of preview shots a few days after our wedding, and we were absolutely blown away by the shots he and his team took. Cannot wait to see the full album and recap video. As for Nathan and his team, we will always recommend him to any Southern California wedding couple looking for a photo/video team. The work speaks for itself, but the team goes above and beyond through the entire day. Nathan and team, we will be forever grateful for you all.”

“Nathan and his team are the absolute best! From the first time we got great vibes from him. Leading up to our wedding he was there for any questions, tips or advice we needed. Then the day of our wedding… Nathan and his team make you feel so comfortable during the “photo shoot” part of things. During the dancing and fun time, we didn’t even notice them yet there’s so many fun photos they were able to catch! The quality of their work is top notch. Thanks for transporting us right back to our wedding day with the photos and videos you put together. They will be with us for a lifetime and we couldn’t be happier with the product!”

“After doing some research we settled with Nathan and his team to capture our wedding! And we wouldn’t have it any other way! I can’t express how grateful we are to have such an amazing team. The results speak for themselves.From iconic dance floor shots to time stopping images, they were able to capture it all! You can tell from the images how much love and hardwork that was poured into a single image. Also received the photos so fast and it was organized by sequence of events! They were able to capture so many memories and we are so excited to share them! Absolutely love the results and definitely recommend to all my friends and family. They do not just simply capture images they make art out of it!
