I hope you've made it through the heat of summer and are ready for the cooler weather come our way the last few days. This is my first portrait/wedding newsletter in almost a year, the last one was sent our just after Thanksgiving last year. Wow, how time flies! I've been busy with creating many portraits and wonderful weddings images since this time last year. It's hard to believe that the holidays are almost upon us, in just over a few weeks the kids will be rotting their teeth on Halloween candy as us adults will be getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
The main purpose of this edition of the newsletter is to remind you it's time to update your family portraits for those all important 2010 Christmas cards and to introduce my new Model program for upcoming seniors, Class of 2012. All the information is below!
Be sure to stay in touch and let me know how you and your family are doing, especially if we haven't spoken in a while.
One last thing, if you're having trouble viewing the newsletter it is also on my website under the "News" section. Here's a link, http://edwardmendes.com/portraits/recent-news/past-newsletters.html
Happy Fall,
Edward Mendes

It's Time To Update Your Christmas Cards!
Yep, it's that time of year again! Time to start thinking about getting your Christmas cards ready and updating that family portrait to send to everyone on your greeting card list. In case you didn't know we offer a ton of greeting card designed that you can't find at your local warehouse store. We have everything from the standard 4x8 slimline cards to the breath-taking 4 color press tri-fold cards and everything in between including folded and flat cards in 4x5 and 5x7 sizes.
In addition to the hundreds of template based designs, we also do custom designed cards for the same prices! The custom designed cards are as unique as your family and can feature any color, fonts, image(s) and greeting you would like. I design all the cards myself so theirs no limit to what we can do. Don't settle for ordinary cards this year, send something that will standout from the bunch.
Just want to update your portrait? No problem we can do that do. We can create beautiful portraits of your family, children, parents and grandparents anywhere you'd like, indoors, outdoors, locally or on location. Give me a call today so there's enough time to send everything out for the Holidays! 209-541-1815
Complimentary Portrait Session
Just a quick reminder, if you've been one of my brides in the past you have a free maternity or newborn session waiting for you as part of your package (heck, as a baby gift I may just give you both!). So if your family is about to grow give me a call and we can set up a time to create some beautiful images of you and your little one-to-be.
To create the best newborn images possible we like to work with your little guy or girl as early as possible, idealy within the first week, just an FYI.
