Crystal Briseno – CSU Sacramento 2014 – Graduation Portraits

Graduation Portraits by Edward MendesWhile I photograph a lot of graduation portraits for high school seniors, we don’t tend to do that many for college seniors, why is that?  Crystal will be graduating from CSU Sacramento (my alma mater) in May and thought the occasion should be marked by getting some awesome graduation portraits made.  A Good idea in my book!

I had been in nearby Knights Ferry about a week before Crystal gave me a call photographing the beautiful wildflowers (we had a stellar bloom this year) and thought a couple meadows I “discovered” would make the perfect setting for Crystal’s graduation portraits.  Hillsides covered in poppies and wild lupine are always good for portraits, right?

If you’d like to see one of my new fine art images I made in the same area during the peak of the wildflowers, here you go.

We had a great time exploring a couple new areas and created some stunning images.  There are some great options here for wall portraits, particularly the images featuring some of the area’s stunning landscapes.  Here’s a few from our session.

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.

Turlock Wedding Photography by Edward Mendes

This happy couple is Leslie and Michael Rodriguez.  I had the honor of creating the images of their wonderful wedding day a few months ago and what a day it was!  The church ceremony took place nearby in downtown Turlock at Sacred Heart Church with it’s unique and lovely alter before heading to the reception at the always wonderful Turlock country club.  Leslie and Michael are perfect for one another, a smile never leaves either of their faces when their together.  It was a pleasure having the opportunity to share Leslie and Michael’s wedding day and getting to meet their friends and family, a wonderful day.  Congratulations Leslie and Michael! Here is a sneak peak at their wedding day, I hope you enjoy!

Happily Ever After – Christine and Christian

Modesto Wedding Photography

Christine and Christian we’re married on January 4th in a beautiful ceremony at Christine’s church in Ripon, California (a beautiful place for a wedding).  Christine and Christian decided to have a “first look” prior to the actual wedding ceremony and did something pretty cool to commemorate the first time they saw each other, they wrote they’re own vows and exchanged them right there in front of their family, a mini ceremony before the main event.  For the formal wedding portraits we had a chance to use a family friends walnut orchard and the awesome old barn next to it. We had a wonderful time meeting all of Christine and Christian’s friends and family while creating the beautiful images of their wedding day.  The happy couple is back from their Hawaiian honeymoon and jumped right back into finishing their degrees. Here’s a preview of some the images from the wedding of Christian and Christine Smith.  Enjoy!

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!

 

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

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!
