Wedding Photography in La Fortuna de San Carlos

Prior to booking my photo appointment with Javier Mendez, I had spent months looking for the right photographer. I am a Hispanic American woman married to a Korean American man and I wanted a photographer that would capture both our traditional (Hanbok) dress as well as the wedding dress/tuxedo we were married in. I had a very specific look in mind and hadn’t found the right photographer until a family friend recommended Javier Mendez. As soon as I viewed his portfolio, I fell in love. He traveled to the New Jersey/New York area to take my photos, I am normally very camera shy and I expressed this concern to him ahead of time. I felt like a completely different person in front of his camera! He made both my groom and myself feel at ease, knew how to direct our poses and capture us smiling at each other naturally. He was very professional but at the same time, the session was relaxed enough that we all had a wonderful time. While the experience was beyond my expectations (which are already very high), the photos absolutely blew me away! I am so grateful I came across this photographer & was able to schedule a session with him. I got the photos I had only dreamed of and created memories I won’t soon forget. I can not recommend Javier Mendez enough! I am sharing photographs below of my wedding session!
