Modesto senior photography

Senior portraits here in the Modesto area has been in full swing for a while and Xavier came in for his a few weeks ago.  We started inside making some great studio images before heading downtown for the outdoor images.  Downtown Modesto with it’s cool alleyways, colorful walls, staircases and more make for awesome image…if you know where to look.  Luckily I know all the great spots.  It’s also a nice alternative to the big beautiful landscape locations I’m known for.  Xavier is a wonderful guy, cool to hang out with and did a great job during the session.  He’ll be graduating this June and moving on to great things in college.  Here are a few images from Xavier’s session.

I had the pleasure of taking Julia’s senior portraits the other day.  Julia is a senior at Enoch High School and will be graduating this coming June.  Julia’s mom and younger sister joined her for the session and they couldn’t have been nicer to hang out with for the afternoon.  Julia is a natural in front of the camera and it really shows in the images from the session.  We started in the studio and ended the session at one of my favorite outdoor locations where we were greeted with an absolutely stunning sunset and with beautiful warm colors that bathed the entire area in perfect light.  I’ve become known for my images from certain outdoor locations so I like to change things up occasionally in order to continue to offer something new to my clients and keep things fresh for me as well.  While Julia and I were walking the area we discovered a couple new locations with beautiful background vistas and took full advantage of them.  I’ll certainly be adding these to my shot list for future sessions.  It was a wonderful session with Julia and we created a number of beautiful images perfect for wall portraits, here’s a few images from the day.

Austin Trickey – Beyer High 2015 – Modesto Senior Portraits

Modesto Senior Portraits

Austin’s a pretty awesome guy, of course he’s also my cousin so I may be a bit bias.  He’s smart (you should hear the list of schools he’s applying to), he played water polo, has a cool car…I mean come on, mother’s lock up your daughters, right?  Anyway,  Austin wanted to go out-of-town for his senior portraits so we headed to San Fransisco for a day in the city and a chance to do something a bit different than what everyone else is doing.  We started along the Embarcadero where we found some awesome tagged walls before moving on to a few of my other favorite SF portrait locations before ending the day at the ruins of the Sutro Baths and then some tacos at a nearby taqueria.  It was a great session and an awesome day!  Want to check out some of the images from Austin’s session?  Here you go…

Mommy {To Be} Maternity Portrait Session with Whitney

 

Maternity portraits by Modesto area Photographer Edward Mendes. Also serving Turlock, Oakdale, Ceres, Ripon, Riverbank and the entire Central Valley. Maternity Pictures.

Whitney will be welcoming a beautiful baby girl into the world very soon so we headed out for a few maternity portraits, or Mommy {To Be} images as I like to call them.  Whitney makes a beautiful model which makes my job of making her look her best an easy one and allows me to focus more of my attention on creative stuff, like open fields and balloons.  Her baby shower will be featuring a pink color theme so I wanted to work that into the images in some way as the pictures are going to be used during the party.  We started the session with a  few studio images, a bit of a warm up, before heading to the field of oats just outside my studio for a few images with some balloons.  We finished the session at one of my favorite local spots.

If you’re expecting (or know someone who is) and would like your own Mommy {To Be} maternity portrait session give me a call, 209.541.1815 or drop me an email and we can set one up.  OK, enough talking, here’s some of the images from the session.
