Captured by Candace Photography · 2027
Seattle & Beyond · Est. 2017
Congratulations! This is such an exciting time. I'm Candace Connor, and I am honored you're considering me to document your wedding day.
Welcome! I'm Candace, the lead photographer and founder of Captured by Candace. I created CBC for vibrant and authentic couples like you. What started as a fulfilling hobby turned into the best job in the world.
I am dedicated to providing quality, inclusive wedding photography for couples of all backgrounds. As a Black wedding photographer, I understand the importance of being featured in your photos as true reflections of who you are as individuals and partners.
If you're an easy going couple who values connection and you're looking for a skilled wedding photographer who's professional but feels more like a friend than a wedding vendor, I'm your girl!
Candace
The CBC Standard
Because your starting point should already be exceptional.
Second shooter included for every wedding. Candace determines the right coverage for your day. · Every couple receives a $500 album foundation credit, a thank you gift that opens your private album design experience.
Three collections, each designed around a different vision of your day. The right one covers everything you need, and nothing you don't.
Your full wedding day, beautifully documented.
The complete photography experience, nothing held back. Eight hours with Candace and a second shooter, so every moment is covered. Begin together at your engagement session and end with a private album design experience.
Collection valued at $9,050 when booked separately
Ten hours, so your day never feels rushed.
Everything in The Classic Story, with two more hours. Getting ready, portraits, and your celebration all get room to breathe, and nobody has to watch the clock. Includes a 90 minute engagement session and a private album design experience.
Collection valued at $11,125 when booked separately
Everything. Held back nothing.
For the couple who knows this day only happens once and wants every version of it. Ten hours of photography and ten hours of film means never watching the clock. A two hour engagement session means we truly know each other. Full day film means it lives forever.
Collection valued at $17,750 when booked separately
These collections cover the wedding days I see most often. If your celebration runs longer, spans more than one day, or takes us somewhere new, I'd love to build a custom collection around it. Twelve hour days, welcome dinners, and destination weddings are all on the table.
For weekday elopements and intimate celebrations: a backyard, a rented restaurant, a quiet spot that means something to you. Up to 20 guests. Includes a Fresh Start session and up to 4 hours of wedding day coverage, with the option to extend up to 6 hours. Available Monday through Friday. Ceremony & Celebration Film available as an add on.
Just a judge, your person, and maybe a handful of witnesses. Courthouse ceremonies are their own kind of magic. Simple, sweet, and over before lunch. Coverage starts at 3 hours. Available Monday through Thursday.
You'll look at your photos a hundred times. You'll feel your wedding again when you watch the film.
Our film team works alongside Candace to capture the moments you'll want to hear and feel again: your vows, your first dance, the toasts that made everyone cry, and everything in between. The team is sized to your day, so you always have the coverage you need.
Depending on your coverage, your film can include:
A cinematic highlight film, plus full length videos of your key moments: ceremony, first dances, and toasts. Your films live in the same private gallery as your photos, all in one place.
Planning a longer day? Additional film hours are available at $650/hr, or we can build a custom collection together.
Every wedding collection includes an engagement session, but you can also book one on its own. It's our chance to connect, get comfortable together, and create images you'll love before the big day even arrives.
Simple, focused, beautiful.
For couples who want to stick to one look and one location. Perfect if you know exactly the vibe you want.

Every CBC couple is invited into a private album design experience, choosing their cover material, size, and finish from our full Dream Books sample collection. Your album foundation credit is your starting point.
Modern, tactile, distinctly you.
Available in an exclusive range of premium cover materials: velvet, soft touch, micro leather, Prestige, Buckram Natural, linen, and more. Layflat fine art pages. Every detail chosen during your private design session.
Handcrafted leather. Built for generations.
Genuine Tuscany leather: warm, substantial, and unmistakably heirloom. Layflat fine art pages. Presented in a custom presentation box of your choice. The kind of album that lives on a coffee table and gets handed to grandchildren.
Parent & Companion Albums: Smaller replica albums crafted to match your main wedding album. Fully customizable cover materials, stamping, and edging, everything but the box. Sold as sets of two, perfect for parents and grandparents.
How do I know which collection is right for me?
That's exactly what our consultation call is for. I don't believe couples should have to figure this out alone. I'll ask about your day, your guest count, your timeline, and your vision, and together we'll find the right fit. No pressure, no wrong answer.
What's the difference between The Signature Story and The Legacy Story?
Film. Both give you 10 hours of photography with a second shooter. The Legacy Story adds 10 hours of film, from getting ready through the last dance, plus a longer two hour engagement session. If you'd like film with Classic or Signature, you can add Ceremony & Celebration Film or Full Day Film instead.
Do I really need a second photographer?
For most weddings, yes, and it's already included in every collection. While I'm with you getting ready, they're capturing your partner's first reaction. I determine what your day needs during our consultation.
How does the album foundation credit work?
Every collection includes a $500 credit, a thank you gift applied toward your custom heirloom album. After your wedding we schedule a private design session where we go through our full Dream Books sample kit together, design every spread, and proof until it's exactly right. Everything is fully customizable.
Which engagement session is included with my collection?
Every collection includes an engagement session, and the length varies by collection (1 hour with Classic, 90 minutes with Signature, 2 hours with Legacy). You can also upgrade or book a standalone session at any time. The four options are Fresh Start ($750 · 1hr), New Beginnings ($875 · 90min), Happily Ever After ($1,000 · 2hrs), and Destination Session (from $1,750 · up to 2.5hrs · includes travel).
When will we see our photos?
You'll receive a highlight gallery within 1 to 2 weeks. Some sneak peeks may also appear on Instagram @capturedbycandace. Your full gallery is delivered within 6 to 8 weeks.
Can our family order prints?
Yes. Once your gallery is delivered, family and loved ones can order prints and products directly from the gallery.
Do you travel for destination weddings?
Yes, and I'd love to. Reach out for a custom quote that includes travel. Every wedding is unique and I'm happy to build something that works for your vision and location.
Ready to talk?
The next step is a conversation. No pressure, no obligation. Just a chance to make sure we're the perfect fit for each other.
