Photographer Musician Ronnie Mendoza is one of the first people I look for while attending a John Stamos function. That is to say, he is an old friend of John’s and I always enjoy talking photos, music and past adventures with him. But I rarely get to talk at length with Ronnie.

So I thought I would ask Ronnie to do this podcast (so I could pry some “story” out of him). And I am happy to say that It was worth it.Because Ronnie Mendoza has seen a few things over the decades he has been involved with photography.
