  • Serves Carefree, AZ

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Candace is AMAZING! We had her photograph our engagement and wedding photos. She was a YES right away because she was immediately happy to capture us with our fur baby for engagement photos! Fast forward to wedding day, ALL of the photos were SO SO SO beautiful, carefully crafted detail shots, and just so perfect! Candace throughout both events was super friendly and personable, but still professional. She was amazing at corralling our large families for group photos, and seamlessly moving around the wedding day, and capturing everything! We liked how she sent a questionnaire a few weeks ahead of the wedding to ask us about minor details that she might not be aware of, and any photo inspiration to make sure we were on the same page. My husband and I love all of the photos Candace took and are so excited to have them forever! We are so grateful Candace was our photographer and you won't regret working with her!!! 3

Michael did a fantastic job as our wedding DJ and emcee. He took the time to meet with us on multiple occasions to get to know us as a couple, to learn about our music interests, and to understand what type of vibe we were going for at the ceremony and reception. He created a timeline for our wedding that was so helpful because I did not have a day--of coordinator. He even gave my brother some pointers since it was his first time being an officiant. The party was so much fun, the music was great, his lighting was awesome, and all of our guests enjoyed the photobooth. 10/10 would recommend!

Barbie and her team were so amazing! I had four bridesmaids and two moms getting their makeup done on my wedding day, and everyone was raving about their makeup and hair afterward! Barbie and the team came to our hotel room and set up very quickly, working with a slightly smaller space than they are probably used to, and got everyone done quickly and efficiently, all while making the experience fun and exciting! I am a serious crier and kept losing it through the evening, but my makeup stayed in tact literally ALL NIGHT. I was so impressed and grateful. With Boss Beauty, you are getting quality makeup and the application is quick & painless - as someone who rarely wears makeup and can’t stand the feeling of fake lashes/cakey makeup, the soft glam was right up my alley and exactly what I wanted. I will definitely use Barbie again for my next event, and special shoutout to Shae for seeing my bridal hair vision and executing flawlessly!

So here's the tea... I'm a wise-cracking, extroverted Capricorn who excels at corralling your rowdy family for photos and charming Aunt Carol, the self-deemed professional iPad photographer. Ever since I was little, huddled on the couch with my five siblings rewatching The Lion King, I knew that I wanted to be a storyteller. Growing up in a creative household, I studied a wide range of arts before settling on filmmaking. I envisioned in my head that I would be the next Spielberg, but after shooting my first wedding in 2013 all my plans changed.

Maya was my wedding photographer at my wedding in Flagstaff, AZ at Aldea Wedding in the Woods and she was PHENOMENAL. Her energy is out of this world & you cannot help but smile and laugh around her. She quickly feels like family. Not only does she have the most insanely wonderful personality that brightens the room but her photos she took are STUNNING! She really has such an eye for capturing the perfect moments and the quality and colors are just perfect. Myself, my now husband, and friends and family were just in awe when I showed them. I just got married two days ago and the day after my wedding she sent me sneak peek photos and there were SO many - I couldn’t believe how fast the turnaround was. And there’s more photos to come! Everything was just stunning I can’t rave about her enough. You need to hire Maya!!!! Also my friends and family couldn’t stop talking about how fun she was. We love you Maya you are amazing!!!

As a person who had never been glam before, Emily and Sarah made me super comfortable and had realistic expectations. THANK YOU for explaining why 18-inch extensions would be beneficial, and I am thankful for trusting you. My hair and makeup were freaking epic! I wanted old Hollywood Glam with smokey eyes and, being 48, requesting glowy skin instead of baked. Sarah made all my bridesmaids feel gorgeous with their makeup, and our hair was perfect! Most of my bridesmaids had been BM before, so they were expecting to feel insecure and not sexy. All five were so impressed they felt and looked beautiful. I have never been called "Stunning" before my wedding day. On that day, Emily and the team not only made me look stunning, but they also made me feel stunning. My hairstyle with the 18-inch clip extensions was done perfectly. My makeup lasted all night, and the glow that was used on my chest gave me the most beautiful glowing skin. Thank you so much! I haven't gotten any of my professional photos in yet. Here are a few from guests

DJ Dana did our wedding on 8/31/24 and we highly recommend him! He took into account my wedding playlists, and knew when to play the right songs. It took a lot of stress out of our day. He was very early, and set up with plenty of time to spare. His speaker system and microphones for toasts worked great. He brought his own lights to add to the party and even added some to our sweetheart table to spice it up! He was very thoughtful, and even sang us L-OV-E by Nat King Cole very tastefully and casually while people were finishing dinner. Highly recommend… thank you DJ Dana!

I discovered Laura's work on my Instagram and immediately fell in love with it. Her style was warm and soothing, and I was excited to collaborate with her. The booking process was seamless; she was highly professional and fully understood my vision. I felt fortunate because she had previously shot at our location, Lost Dutchman State Park, and I could use some of her past work for reference. On the day of our wedding, Laura arrived on time and remained professional throughout. That same night, we received a sneak peek of some of my favorite photos. Our wedding was a surprise elopement, and everyone absolutely loved the pictures. We received the final edits promptly and were showered with compliments. Laura played a big part in making my day special, and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

Our wedding consisted of mid 20’s to mid 80’s (all from different backgrounds and walks of life) and every single person was on the dance floor! I have never heard so many compliments on a wedding DJ - usually someone somehow ends up complaining that their taste of music wasn’t played - but not this time. Trego is so talented. He knows how to pick up vibes from the crowd and keep the night flowing. He also has a gift on the mic. His MC-ing got our guests so hype to see us during grand entrance. All around, Trego is all class. He is such a professional. He is such a hype man. He is such an important part of a wedding day. Worth every penny and more

We loved working with Jeremiah and his whole crew. Drew did a great job with our photos. So many people told me after our wedding that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. We could not have done it without The Womack crew. They made our day just the way we envisioned it to be. They have an app that we use to give our ideas and the things we wanted on our special day; this made it so easy to plan the day. The best part is that they offer so many options, we used them for wedding officiant, DJ, photographer, yard games, photo booth, and wedding coordinator.

Hi! I'm Abby, your behind the scenes guru of wedding & event planning! I started in the wedding industry when I was 18 working for San Diego Style Weddings and fell in love with the details that come with event planning. And partially thanks to this experience, I have been a bridesmaid 20 times (yes, almost like the movie).

We all know event planning can be overwhelming, so why not have a professional on your side to make sure things go off without a hitch? Schedule a consultation today!

Hiring Abby with Copper Blossom Events was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I found her online, but from our first call, I knew she was the one. She was fun, easy to talk to, and, as a fellow recovering theatre kid, instantly felt like my kind of person. Abby is incredibly organized, proactive, and a fantastic communicator. I was finishing my PhD while planning our wedding (chaotic combo), and she kept me on track with a clear timeline and zero added stress. She helped with everything from design to vendors and logistics so seamlessly that if anything went wrong, I never knew. My vendors and family adored her, and she kept everyone calm and organized. On the wedding day, she was pure magic. Not only did everything run smoothly, but she also made sure we actually enjoyed it. One moment that typifies Abby's style happened right after the ceremony: in a whirlwind of happy shock, I found someone had slipped my signature cocktail into my hand. That's Abby. She anticipated everyone's needs before we even realized them, always working behind the scenes to make things perfect. By the end, she felt more like a friend than just a planner. She genuinely cared, not just about the logistics, but about us. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and an absolute joy to work with, hire Abby. She made our wedding stress-free, seamless, and fun. She is worth her weight in GOLD - I truly can’t recommend her enough!

Brittany was such a pleasure to work with. We decided to elope and have a small intimate destination wedding at the beautiful San Francisco City Hall. We did our research on local California photographers but we have seen Brittany's work and knew we just had to fly her out to California with us! From start to finish, Brittany was personable, kind, and truly cared about our experience. You can tell she has invested a lot of time and effort into curating this experience for her clients and we were so thankful to have her by our side. She was great with communication, was very clear in her promises and expectations, and very thorough in her work. She exceeded our expectations and despite it being her first time shooting at the SF City Hall, you could never tell from the photos she captured for us. She was such a blessing! She guided us through every pose and was the best go-to girl for making sure you looked your best. She even delivered our full wedding gallery a few weeks early! Now that we're home and back in Arizona, we are so glad she's based here because we cannot recommend her enough!

We hired Ricky - Goodeye Photography - for both our engagement and wedding photos, and holy cow did he blow us away. Hiring him was easily the best decision we made. From start to finish, Ricky was an absolute joy to work with. His professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail made every minute of planning and shooting a wonderful experience. I originally found Ricky on Instagram (@goodeye.photography) and after a quick scroll through his page, I instantly knew he was who we needed. Every photo in his portfolio had emotion and love in them. After finding his Instagram page, I reached out and he very quickly responded with all necessary information. He communicated clearly and quickly throughout this entire process which was very appreciated! I plan events professionally and half the time it’s like pulling teeth to even get a response from someone. Never once did Ricky have a delayed response or leave us with more questions than answers. My husband is what we’d call “camera shy” and was pretty anxious leading up to our engagement shoot as this was his first time getting professional photos done. And while Ricky always behaves in a very professional manner, he also is extremely personable, friendly, and frankly just straight up funny. We instantly connected with him and he made my husband feel so much more relaxed - heck, my husband even had FUN during the shoot which I didn’t think possible haha. It goes without saying that the engagement photos were absolutely stunning… each one better than the last. As the big day drew nearer, Ricky met with us regularly and assisted us in our agenda, timeline, and all these other small details you don’t even think about. On the day of our wedding, Ricky and his team went above and beyond to capture every moment. He has an incredible eye for detail and was able to capture the essence of our day beautifully. (Petition for him to change his name from Good Eye Photography to Incredible Eye Photography ;) After the ceremony was over and it was time for my new husband and I to sneak off during cocktail hour to take our photos, a lovely wedding guest managed to spill red wine all down my white dress. Before I could even flinch, Ricky immediately jumped in and said “Don’t worry, I can edit out these red stains in all the pictures.” One of the BEST parts of working with Ricky is also his quick turnaround time. I wanna say it was like 5 days after the wedding and Ricky had already turned around a handful of “sneak peak” photos - which is quite impressive considering how many other weddings he had booked after ours. And to no ones surprise - there wasn’t a hint of red wine stains in any of the pictures ) Our wedding photos are more than what we could have ever hoped for. I may be biased, but truly some of these pictures deserve to be hung in the Louvre. I cannot recommend Good Eye Photography enough (and on that note it’s worth mentioning that since our engagement photoshoot with Ricky, two of my other friends that were engaged have also hired him and his team for their weddings)! If you are looking for a talented and passionate photographer who will go the extra mile to make your special moments unforgettable and your planning process a breeze, then Ricky is the guy for you.

In 2021 I quit my day job to pursue my long time love of wedding photography full time... and it's extremely safe to say I have no regrets! I've met the most incredible people through this job, and it fills me up knowing I can give what feels like the ultimate creative gift. I come from a small Illinois town with a large extended family and a circle lifelong friends who might as well be blood. My community, the people I love, and the little things that bond us together mean everything to me. Let me help you celebrate you and yours!

Andrea was one of the photographers recommended by our venue (Venue at the Grove) and we couldn’t be happier that we went with her. We knew we were in good hands at our engagement shoot, where she made us feel comfortable and was so fun to work with. I was so happy to see her on my wedding day because it felt like having another friend there with us on our day! Our photos (engagement and wedding) turned out beautiful and are the perfect way to look back on and remember our wedding.

We recently partnered with NJ event collective for a couples event at desert botanical garden we were catering. Jamie from their team worked closely with us to ensure a flawless execution and amazing wedding for Chris & Mariel! From the tasting process through the day of we felt her constant support and attentiveness. With a busy event season underway and being a busy catering company and knowing the challenges this time of year always brings with so many clients to attend to, I never felt like our team or our mutual couple wasn't a top priority. We look forward to working with NJ, Jamie and her NJEC team again soon! Sasha at Creations in Cuisine Catering

Their expertise and knowledge were truly amazing - Anissa made sure my eyes didn't water like they did in the trial, which was so helpful on the big day.

Me and my fiancé are pretty unphotogenic, but Ann’s easygoing demeanor really enabled us to relax and enjoy ourselves during the shoot! She gave us the perfect level of direction: enough to get some fun and interesting shots, but not so much that the photos felt unnatural. My favorite comments from loved ones about our photos is how much the photos really feel like us! She’s a genius with lighting and finding beautiful compositions, I can’t recommend her enough! 3
