Incredible to work with and we LOVE our photos! Highly recommend them.

Erica Mendenhall Photography (EMP) were absolutely amazing to work with and I highly recommend them! After discussing our wedding goals over the phone and browsing their wedding photos portfolio, I knew that EMP would be the perfect photographers for our wedding day. After one phone conversation I felt like I was friends with Erica, she was so nice and genuine and I couldn't wait to hang out with her on my wedding day! I was having a destination wedding, so I booked EMP as our photographers without meeting them in person, but was totally confident that they would be amazing and achieve my wedding day photography goals!

Unfortunately, our wedding could not go ahead as planned due to Coronavirus, but we had an amazing engagement session with EMP at the Palm Springs windmills. Our engagement photos were incredible and my now-husband and I couldn't believe how great we looked! Erica really got us to open up in front of the camera and the results were fantastic. I will treasure them forever!

In addition to the awesome photos, EMP were always easy to get in contact with, were a pleasure to work with and I plan to work with them again when we are able to have a wedding celebration in the future. I would give them six stars if possible!

Erica is the BEST!

Erica is AMAZING!! We are SO glad we hired her. The quality of her work is absolutely incredible, and the quality of her character is just as great. She was so kind and helpful from the very beginning, and throughout the ceremony/ reception, she directed us and kept us right on track for each of the photo scenarios we planned together. She also helped us decide which moments we wanted photos of- she is truly experienced with photographing weddings, because she was able to walk us through things we never would have thought of on our own. Furthermore, communication throughout our entire experience was excellent; thorough, professional, and with great kindness and enthusiasm. I could tell you how beautiful her work is, but I have attached photos so that you can see for yourself! We are so happy we hired Erica, and we would recommend her over and over again!

It was the best experience we had the day was beautiful and everything was just right.

As the Mother of the bride we want everything to go as smoothly as possible . We are excited and nervous and Erica Mendenhall Photographer made it possible for us to enjoy our daughters engagement session day we watched her do her magic. Erica took beautiful pictures of our Bride and Groom to be. Looking forward to the Wedding Day!!! Thank you again Erica Mendenhall for so many beautiful pictures that will last us a life time..
