David Mendoza III

rk with him and he made modeling comfortable and fun (especially for my lack of modeling experience). For all of the reasons a above, I would highly recommend David and we will be using him again in the future!

ece. Our wedding day was a blur of fun and excitement, and I'm so happy Doza was there to capture it forever.

nd. A little more expensive than others but so so worth it.

able to pose and shoot anyone - even our crazy Aussie pup ring bearer. He takes everyone's best photo and captured my bride as the fairytale princess that she is. Truly a remarkable talent.

ly capturing our special day.

d was great to work with - my fiance and I were both nervous going into it but David made it fun and easy and told us exactly what to do. I know that I'll treasure these photos forever. Thanks David!

e so happy with all of our pictures and they were everything I ever dreamed of! I cried so many happy tears when we saw the pictures for the first time. I would absolutely recommend him to everyone! Thank you soooooo much David, we are forever grateful for all the beautiful photos you took and will cherish them forever!

nd aesthetic. He had mentioned when we first booked him, over a year before our wedding date, that he had only been photographing professionally for a year. His portfolio was already pretty good to begin with, but it has improved drastically since then! Our engagement was in Joshua Tree, and those photos turned out amazing. And from there the wedding photos were even better. Doza made me and my husband feel so at ease, when we typically are so awkward and uncomfortable in front of the camera. Not to mention, he made us look sooooo good! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

th all that we had going on that day, he guided us every step of the way. Even though we had a rushed wedding planning process (about 4 months) he was totally on board and willing to work with us. His ability to create and capture the best moments of our wedding is more than we could have ever asked for. He lead us with different poses, different lighting, and was constantly seeking out the next opportunity to capture great backdrops and moments. He gave us so much more than we could have imagined and he brought out the best that day. We are forever grateful for his wonderful service!

ble. He cares about what he is creating and will deliver on your vision. But not only that, he always takes it up a notch and is so much fun. He has created some of my favorites portraits and photos ever! Ones of my family, my husband and I, and maternity. Working with Doza has been an absolute gift and I wont stop recommending him to ANYONE and EVERYONE who wants portraits done. I wish he had done my wedding 9 years ago! If you want to legitimately squeal and cry happy tears looking back at memories through photos. HE IS YOUR GUY. HE IS MAGIC! HIS CRAFT, GOLD. GO!

e across the country in PA and having only “met” him over FaceTime once he meshed so we’ll with our friends and family! He’s charming, hilarious, and makes it incredibly easy to be in front of his camera. We’ll cherish our wedding album forever! I still go through each picture every few weeks to relive our favorite day. Thanks, Doza! You’re one in a million!

for our wedding and wanted someone who captured the experience not the posed photos. After the call we followed up with a few fun questioners that provided my husband and I with great laughter and loving moments! The engagement shoot was far more elaborate than I expected. He helped us coordinate outfits and then took the time to help us figure out how to be way less awkward! The wedding day Doza was all over the place in the best of ways! He organized our family photos (which we were nervous about) with grace and fit right in with our entire the party. He even had a quick slide show with a few of the photos playing at the bar!! Not sure how he whipped that one up but it was amazing! Doza wants to be apart of the entire experience becoming a friend in the process. If you are looking for great care and attention to detail he is your guy! Now as far as the pictures go...wow. Our engagement session he captured what I feel with Blake! Laughter, fun, trips and falls and then more laughter. The photos are far from rigid stills. He captures the emotion. We have only received sneak peek wedding pictures to date but I have full faith in the magic Doza creates. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

month and we are so exited to see all of our images. So let me tell you, the few I’ve seen so far really captured our day. If you’re contemplating on wanting to spend money on a quality photographer David is WORTH THE INVESTMENT. Not only is he amazing at what he does but he’s an awesome person too! Name another photog who will get in the middle of a dance circle at your wedding, I’ll wait. On a real note, all you really need to do is take a look at his work it speaks for itself. Thank you Doza!

th an old friend the photographs he captured were freaking magical. He captured every moment and more, and he was down to hike and shoot anywhere and everywhere to get the shots he needed. The way he got so excited while shooting gave us so much confidence and made the whole process so fun, my husband even loved it! As a photographer myself Doza is a huge constant source of inspiration, the color and rawness of his work is unparalleled and after working together he is now one of our greatest friends. After having so much fun in Bali with him, Peter and I decided to also fly him out to Hawaii to cover our wedding reception even though we weren’t planning on having a photographer and danggg were so thankful we did that! I didn’t think I could love any other photos as much as our Bali gallery but the Hawaii gallery is just as amazing. He stayed with us in our guest house that week in Hawaii with a bunch of our friends and we had the best time ever! Seriously forever grateful for the images he has given us and already can’t wait for an another shoot with him! Doza you da best!!

and I can't stop looking through the photos- they're absolutely stunning! Even my bridesmaids commented on how comfortable they were during our getting ready photos and bridal party portraits with David behind the camera. If you're in the market for a photographer, call David! He was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and for the lifelong memories we trusted him with.

ay while making sure to capture every moment. Not only is he an extremely talented photographer, he is also a charismatic, fun-loving, genuine individual. I would highly recommend David for any event or moment you may want to capture. I will absolutely work with him again!

amera. He's also an incredibly genuine guy and in getting to spend time with him we had the privilege of experiencing his creative and brilliant mind. The way he'd pose us to capture our emotions, the lighting, the location, our families...all these things that he brought together in his stunning photos. I also remember feeling totally comfortable by the way he'd help me pose for some of the shots in ways that still was completely natural and didn't feel posed. Overall I really can't recommend David enough and will definitely be choosing him for some anniversary photos.

“WOW!” And I find myself having that same reaction with all of David’s photos I see. He is the whole package, incredible talented and creative and an incredibly genuine, down to earth guy to go with it! I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

hows, he had a big 'ol smile on his face the entire time and never appeared to be stressed or rushed, this really helped put us at ease during our entire day. I would STRONGLY recommend him to anyone I know!

during a 9 hour layover because we had moved out of state after booking him for our wedding. He took a stressful scenario on our end and found a way to make the relocation work for us so we could move forward with our original photography plans. He truly went above and beyond what we expected from a photographer we had just met. David truly has an eye for natural beauty, so we let him pick where he wanted to shoot while we were driving through Golden, Colorado, a town he had never visited, and he nailed each shot. Not only did he capture the amazing scenery and natural light beautifully, he caught the sweetest moments between my fiancé and I. David is such a pleasure to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him for any futute photography needs.

uch a gift to have pictures that bring back so many amazing memories!! He times the time to capture the essence of each couple and applies it to his photography. Making it a very personal experience. I would recommend David to anyone. We will definitely use him for all future celebrations. Thank you David!!!
