Black Friday Portrait Sale

Hugh Black Friday Portrait Sale! Only at Edward Mendes Photography. ModePhotography. Modesto, Turlock, Sacramento, Oakdale, Riverbank

The sale of the year!!! It’s not often we offer a huge Black Friday portrait sale like this, in fact we’ve never offered a Black Friday portrait sale but I figure this year is as good as any to jump into the game and I though, why not do it BIG!  Until Monday, December 2nd 2013 at midnight you can get a full session of your choice (family, senior, baby…whatever) for only $25 (that’s a $75 savings right there)!   But that’s not all!  You’ll also receive 20% off your print package!  Your face is melting right now, right?  Like I said this is kind of a big deal (pun intended!)

I book a very limited number of sessions to ensure you receive the best experience possible which means I have very few openings.  If you’d like to take advantage of this incredible Black Friday portrait sale and have amazing portraits of your loved ones jump on this fast, it won’t take long to book up.  Call by Monday, December 2nd 2013 to book your session!

Of course a print order is required, but I’m sure you figured that one out already, I have bills to pay after all.

Fall Portraits with Stella

Fall Portraits Children - Modesto, Turlock, Ceres, Oakdale, Riverbank, Central Valley, California

This little bundle of giggles is Stella,  adorable right?  I know.   If you ever find yourself in a cute contest with a 6 month old (I’m not sure why you would) you better hope it’s not this one because you’re going to lose.  Fall leaves are covering the yard here at the studio and Stella is finally sitting up by herself so it was the perfect time for some awesome fall portraits.  Fall portraits are always a lot of fun with kids because they love to play in the leaves and and the warm shades of red and yellow really pop making portraits eye catching.  Plus, with the cooler weather we get to break out the cozy sweaters, scarfs, caps and all the other stuff that add texture and interest to portraits.  Fall portraits are some of my favorites!  We also did a few images in the studio a few weeks earlier and I’ve included a couple of those here for your enjoyment as well.  Enjoy!

Happily Ever After – Erica and Candido

Modesto Wedding Photography by Edward Mendes

I met Erica a couple years ago when I took her senior portraits and was thrilled to be able to create the images of her wedding day as well.  Erica and Candido are a wonderful couple; you can see the joy they bring to one another when they’re together and that’s a wonderful thing.  The wedding took place at the lovely Rancho Canada Country Club in beautiful Carmel Valley and while the ceremony didn’t exactly play out the way it was originally planned (a bit of weather caused a change in direction) Kim and Christina at Cordially Invited Planners did a fabulous job of rolling with the punches and creating a wonderful event.  With Erica and Candido nothing could dampen the sprite of the day.

We had a blast hanging out with all of Erica and Candido’s friends and family, they’re a truly wonderful group and creating the stunning images of their day was a pleasure.  Candido is back severing our country so I hope he has the opportunity to see these images too.  Here’s a preview of some the images from the wedding of Erica and Candido Cruz.  Enjoy!

Family Portraits for the Holidays

Family Portraits - Modesto, Turlock, Oakdale, Ceres, RIverbank, Ripon, Central Valley, California

I know it’s hard to believe but Christmas is only seven weeks away!  If you haven’t already scheduled your family portrait session for this year, now is the time.  As you know I’m all about creating the best portraits you’ve ever had and that means only creating your family portraits during the absolute best light possible.  The soft, warm light that I use to create the images of your loved ones is only available during the last few minutes of the day when the sun is low on the horizon.  Because of this  I only book one session a day in order to give you the best experience possible and make sure your session is noting less than amazing.  Long story short, I book up fast.

Wait, one more thing…as you also know I do a lot more than “just” create amazing portraits that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.  I also offer beautiful, custom designed cards, brag books, albums and more, perfect for Christmas gifts or just to stay in touch with those you love.

Give me a call today to schedule your family portrait session and celebrate the season in style, 209.541.1815 or edward@edwardmendes.com.
