Chelsea Johnson – Class of 2014 Senior Portraits

Modesto Senior Portraits

Chelsea will be graduating from Ceres High (class of 2014) in a few days and stopped by the studio for her senior portraits recently.   Chelsea was wonderful to work with and very easy to photograph.  We started in the studio before branching out to our outdoor location for some fantastic conditions and light.  Chelsea is a very talented drummer and will be playing with the Fresno State Marching band in the fall, way to go Chelsea!  Here’s a few images from her senior portraits.

Are you graduating or know someone who is and are looking for more than your typical boring senior pictures?  Then you’ve come to the right place.  Give me a call today 209.541.1815 or send an email to schedule your senior consultation.

Monterey Wedding Photography

Monterey Wedding Photography by Edward Mendes

It’s been amazing getting to know Stephanie and Chris since day one. I’m very lucky to have worked with so many wonderful clients over the years and these two certainly rate right up there with the best. Since they stopped by for the initial consultation they’ve been excited, friendly and a ton of fun.

Chris and Stephanie had a beautiful beach front wedding at the lovely Monterey Beach Resort in Monterey, California. The California coast, and this part of it specifically, is one of my favorite places in the world to both work and play so getting to photograph the wedding there was great.  Monterey Wedding Photography…not a bad job!

Chris is a big football fan and wanted to incorporate his passion for the game into the images we created with the guys. I can’t think of a better way to do that then a little football game on the beach before the ceremony just to keep things loose. As Chris tossed a couple touchdowns, Stephanie was looking stunning as she had her hair and makeup done with her bridesmaids.

Surrounded by friends and family, their day was stunning! Filled with love and laughter it was a pleasure to have the opportunity to share in the event and create the memories of their wedding day. Congratulations, Stephanie and Chris!

Happily Ever After…Taylor + Tommy Sacramento Wedding Photography

Sacramento Wedding Photography by Edward Mendes Photography

Taylor and Tommy tied the knot in a lovely ceremony at St. Stephen church in Sacramento before heading back to Reno and start their lives together.   I had photographed Taylor’s sister a few months before for her senior portraits so it was great getting the opportunity to photograph Taylor’s big day as well.  Tommy and Taylor are an awesome couple and we enjoyed meeting the rest of their family and friends where creating the stunning images of their wedding day.

It’s wonderful to have the opportunity to be part of the happiest day of a person’s life, all the best Taylor and Tommy!
