About MJ Mendoza Photography

MJ Mendoza Photography

Owner/Photographer

I’m Monica, a fall scented candle lover, creamer with a splash of coffee fan, and a bright & colorful wedding photographer! I believe your photographic experience should be extraordinary and enjoyable. That’s why I’m here with you every step of the way... from helping you plan an amazing engagement session to helping create a wedding timeline perfect for getting all the gorgeous portraits to fluffing your dress, hugging your mom at the end of the day and celebrating your marriage long after the wedding is over.

My photography style is a bright & colorful style that's true to life. Your wedding day portraits should feel timeless & romantic, it'll never lose its magic. The Signature Collection includes an heirloom album because it's important to me that you have a handcrafted legacy album that'll be your family's very first heirloom. Posing is something couples mention to me with worry, but every couple who has mentioned this, have always been the most joyful & natural in photos! My posing style is both interactive & discreet. Meaning: I'm hands on with gentle posing & also know when to give distance to let beautiful candid moments unfold naturally.

    Monica is incredible!

    We love working with Monica at The Barns of Kanak. She is responsive, kind, and truly cares about her couples. We recommend her to our couples looking for a reliable, talented, and super sweet photographer!

    Monica is the BEST!

    Monica was such a wonderful addition to our wedding. She was so fun to spend time with, easy going, and a joy to work with! Her style of photography is so laid back, we got to have a blast at our engagement session and on our wedding day we didn't feel like we were missing out on cocktail hour, or dreading having to take pictures. She made the experience so enjoyable and we absolutely love all of our photographs. She captured us, our love, and our friends and family, perfectly. If you like a relaxed, yet fun and results-driven photographer, Monica is for you!

Typically, couples book me about 13-18 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, especially if you’re planning on a shorter time frame or planning a 2022 wedding!
Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I also offer retouching services like blemish removal and teeth whitening for an additional charge.
I love to give my couples some sneak peek photos 24-48 hours after their wedding day ends and it takes 6-8 weeks to receive your full gallery of high resolution wedding photos.
You can expect about 50-80 images per hour of photographing, but it tends to be more between myself and my second photographer! But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.
