Tom Hanks in Forest Gump was right, life really is like a box of chocolates. Couples are really so much fun to photograph and capture. Each couple brings their own special sparkle to the table, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Bring the beauty of a love story to our Phoenix desert, and it’s a match made in heaven. Whether you need engagement save-the-date cards, or maybe you are celebrating something special, it truly is magic when we are all together.
As cheesy as it sounds, I want to capture your love for each other. And I want to have a little fun too! So we will get those posed timeless photos that the parents will want of you, but we will also dance and kiss and get those treasured moments for yourself and your partner during this part of your life.
So don’t worry! Be your awesome selves, and I’ll be the ultimate third-wheel paparazzo, snapping away to capture all your fantastic moments on this date extravaganza! This is the time we get comfortable with each other, so that on your wedding day – I’m just like your best friend tagging along and documenting the day.
“Her photography skills are FAR superior than any other photographer I have worked with before.”
Candace was an absolute pleasure to have on my side. I am from out of state, but that did not stop her from helping me with my proposal. She went above and beyond to make our moment so special. She catered to special requests with a fantastic attitude, and reached out to me giving me updates on the location that we chose! Her photography skills are FAR superior than any photographer I have worked with before. You will NOT go wrong with choosing her.

“Thank you for capturing the way he looks at me!”
Celebrating our 15 year wedding anniversary together let alone in pictures is beyond a blessing when your husband has spent more time with “the Army” than you…. Thank you for capturing my favorite human and the way he looks at me. #MyForever captured by Candace!!!!

Driving to this session, I was nervous. I had butterflies. My palms were sweaty while gripping the steering wheel. I can only imagine how Michael must have felt preparing to put this plan into action[...]
Couples photos are a beautiful way to freeze a moment in time when it’s just the two of you…no distractions, no rush. Whether you’re newly engaged, celebrating an anniversary, or simply enjoying life together, these photos capture the love you share in its purest form. Every stage of a relationship holds something unique, and documenting that is so important.
I love seeing couples in their element…laughing, holding hands, or sharing a quiet moment just for each other. These photos tell your story and preserve the feelings that words sometimes can’t express. Years from now, when life has shifted and you look back on these images, they’ll take you straight to that exact moment in time: the way you felt, the love you shared, and the happiness you both experienced.
Because life moves fast, and while memories fade, these photos will always remind you of where it all began and how far you’ve come together.

“She is not your normal photographer.”
Candace made our entire experience easy and fun. We had our engagement photos done in Prescott and everything was superb. She is not your normal photographer- meaning we didn’t spend most of our time posing (other than a couple posed shots); she captured real, happy moments filled with genuine laughter and joy. Not one fake smile the entire session! We are in love with our engagement photos and there’s no one else we would trust to photograph our wedding day
