Hi there! I'm Candace!
I’m super excited that you are here (literally on this website) checking out what I do! If you can’t tell, I’m a Phoenix based Family + Wedding Photographer.
I’m told that I am bubbly, friendly, and patient…all the things that hopefully make you feel comfortable with me. My hope is that you can catch a glimpse of my passion for telling your story with photos, whether it’s your love story or your family’s moments. Together we will capture life’s greatest memories.
Be prepared to have a little fun when we get together. Beware! I’ve been known to change the minds of those dreading husbands, fiancé’s, and teenagers and hearing them say, “This was actually fun!”
I'm so glad you found me!
I make my bed in Phoenix, AZ. Long before even being a full-time photographer, pictures have always been an important part of my life. My daughters have always nicknamed me “Mamarazzi.” I always say that if my home ever caught on fire, if I could take a tangible item besides my family, it would be my photos.
In my years of experience, who knew that I would capture the greatest memories and even the last moments together of families. That’s why I am called “Memories by Candace.” I want to tell your story!
So whether you are just starting your life as a married couple, starting a family, or celebrating any milestone, head over to
And if you are like, “Nah! I have already seen your stuff and I’m in!” Then okay…

``Highly Recommend``
“We scheduled family photos as a gift for my mom for her birthday and it was the best decision. Memories by Candace was easy to schedule with and gave all sorts of tips and tricks online with style guides and tips for easy photos.
Candace worked so well with my family and was amazing with my two girls, even coaxing smiles from my toddler. The landscape she chose was breathtaking. I was amazed that she had our photos ready in just 2 days!!!
I highly recommend using her for your photos, we will definitely use her again!!”

Photos aren't always forced smiles!
Don’t get me wrong, we’ll absolutely get those classic smiling-at-the-camera shots that your mom needs for her wall. But the photos that you’ll want to keep forever? The in between moments, the genuine laughter, the way you are naturally with the people you love…yeah, that’s what we’ll be sure to create together too.
The feel good memories!
My sessions are all about fun, energy, and making you feel like your best, most confident self in front of my camera. Whether we are capturing your love story, wrangling the fam for a playful shoot, or marking a big milestone, I’m here to actually make sure you enjoy the experience. Honestly, let’s be real, that’s when the magic happens!
