Saddlerock Ranch spreads across a thousand acres of Malibu wine country — vineyards under sandstone peaks, a working ranch's barns and animals, and landscapes that photograph like a western shot in golden hour.

Frames from ConneryFilm weddings across Los Angeles. Close, people-first coverage — the same approach we bring to Saddlerock Ranch.

The ranch's famous residents — including its giraffes and camels — make cameos in the day when arranged, but the land is the star: vine rows against rock faces, oak meadows, and dusk light that turns the sandstone amber. This is big-landscape wedding photography.

Common questions

When is the best light for photos at Saddlerock Ranch?

Sandstone peaks glow amber at last light — the defining backdrop. We build the timeline backwards from that window so your portraits land in the light the venue actually gives, instead of wherever they fall in the running order.

Which parts of Saddlerock Ranch do you build coverage around?

Where permitted, drone passes over the vineyard bowl are extraordinary. Knowing this before the day is what lets one team cover both photo and film without either one compromising the other.

Anything else worth knowing about shooting at Saddlerock Ranch?

Animal encounters need advance arrangement; they make once-ever candids. Distances are real on a thousand acres; plan transport between sites.

Do you travel to Malibu?

Yes — Malibu is inside our regular coverage area and there is no separate travel charge for it. ConneryFilm has worked across Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange County and the Inland Empire for 17 years, covering ceremonies in English, Persian, Armenian and Spanish.
