Welcome to Bella Mena Photography

Thank you for stopping by my site. I hope you enjoy these gorgeous faces. Every photographer finds their own style. When you book with me, you get an hour of a whole lot of picture taking. When I give you your CD, it is filled with edited, very candid moments of that hour as well as portraits you will want to have printed and framed. I have found that my clients love the candid pictures just as much as the portraits. I recommend that once you have your CD, you upload your pictures to your favorite photo lab and make a photo book with your pictures so you can display them and keep them forever. It isn't often you get to see pictures of yourself together with your family or of your children....just being. Those are the moments I love to capture. Make sure to click on play on the playlist below to listen to some great music while you browse through my page. Please feel free to contact me at bellamenaphotography@yahoo.com or 916-205-3575 from the hours of 5:30p.m. and 9:00p.m. Monday - Friday and anytime on Saturday and Sunday.

Ode to the Mama's

Happy Valentine's Day! I took most of the day to spend some time with my loved ones and I have some time to catch up on my site. I hope all of you had a special day although I truly believe there are 365 days to show your love =) As promised, here are only SOME of the gorgeous mom's I have been lucky enough to photograph this year. This is only 2010 so if you're not in here, it is only because my 2009 files are archived and/or I didn't take individual mom pictures of you but it is something I started doing with all my sessions in the latter part of 2010 and I'm loving it! I think all moms should celebrate their beauty in timeless photographs!
