Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

Looking through our wedding album feels like magic. Every picture tells part of the story. I love how they didn’t miss even the smallest details. The video is absolutely incredible, edited so perfectly with music that made me cry. They captured the real essence of the day, not just posed shots.

It’s truly something I’ll treasure forever.

*PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE TO SUBMIT A CONTACT FORM AT WWW.CANDYNOGALES.COM.* MY WEBSITE IS UNDER MY PHOTO ON MY ZOLA PAGE. Hi, I'm Candy! I love capturing all of the raw, beautiful moments as they naturally unfold on your wedding day. Candids are some of my favorite photos! Don't worry; I will most definitely get those posed family photos as well, but for most of the day, I'm there to document it all as it naturally happens. I would love to chat with you more about your wedding plans and how I can be a part of documenting it!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was a 2025 bride, and to be completely transparent, we originally planned to spend no more than 3,500 on a wedding photographer. After speaking with Candy, we decided to invest 2,000 more than our initial budget, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Candy’s communication is truly exceptional—you can immediately tell she loves what she does. She is incredibly creative, adapts effortlessly to any situation, and brings such a calm, confident presence. She’s never pushy, yet she directs with grace, which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My husband and I were married at 21c Museum Hotel in Durham, and we wanted a blend of elegant, traditional wedding photos along with fun, fashion-forward, editorial-style images—and Candy absolutely delivered on both. Her editorial shots look so effortless, even though you can tell there’s a lot of intention and artistry behind them. We inquired with five different wedding photographers, but we immediately connected with Candy—her personality, professionalism, and stunning work stood out from the rest. Beyond her talent, she is genuinely one of the sweetest, most humble, and human people you’ll ever meet. Candy offers a truly elevated wedding photography experience, and I would recommend her without hesitation to any couple looking for timeless, editorial, and heartfelt wedding photography.

I’m Anna, a wedding photographer with a European artistic vision and a deep love for storytelling. I truly believe wedding photos should feel natural, emotional, and timeless not staged or rushed. I gently guide my couples when needed, but I focus most on real emotions: the way you look at each other, spontaneous laughter, happy tears, and those quiet, hidden moments of calm when it’s just the two of you for a second in the middle of a busy day. Those are often the memories couples cherish the most.

From the moment we first spoke with Anna from Anna K Photography, we knew we were in good hands. She was incredibly helpful, easygoing, and honest throughout the entire wedding planning process. On the day of our wedding, Anna was a calming presence - she arrived on time and helped us feel relaxed and at ease. Her photography style is truly remarkable, with great quality, amazing composition, and beautiful, vibrant colors in every shot. Anna captured so many unique and creative poses that really showcased our love for one another. We are thrilled with the final photos and would highly recommend Anna K Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer who will go above and beyond to make your special day perfect.

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

she aced my senior session! I am beyond obsessed with the pics even years later. She made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera and she is such a fun bubbly person! you will not be disappointed with your results at all

We had Josie capture our destination wedding / elopement with family & friends in Turks & Caicos. Josie was such a wonderful photographer to have beside us on our wedding day. She captured every special moment and even had all of our photos returned back to us in a months time (& a very large quantity too)!! Our photos had us smiling and feeling like we relived the day all over again. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she has such a calming and peaceful personality to be around. She made the entire wedding day light and fun. Taking photos with her felt so natural and easy. If you are looking for a wedding photographer you will make the best decision choosing to have her by your side - especially for destination weddings! Josie is easy to communicate with and responds promptly to all questions which made the planning process smooth. She adapts to the style of photos you would like - whether more portraits or more candid (or a mix of both). Within a week following our wedding she had sent us a link to access a bunch of sneak peak photos. Reliable, personable, professional, kind, talented are just some words to describe Josie. You will be at peace choosing Josie as a photographer. Josie we are SO grateful and blessed to have had you capture our wedding day - we will cherish our photos for many years to come.

So what VWC does is they pair you with a photographer that they think will fit you and your style the best and let me just say, they knocked it out of the park. Ashley and (both!) Brianna’s were amazing, they made our day so fun and special! Their attitude and outgoing personalities were so fun to have on our day, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the amount of pictures we were taking! All my family and guests were raving about how much fun they were and how at ease they made everyone feel, and just how much they could tell they loved being a part of our day! As for the owners, Ashley & Luke, they very clearly love what they do and respect their customers. We had a bit of a snaffu early in our wedding planning process and they took care of it in such a professional and apologetic manner that my husband and I felt comfortable that we still would have them capture our wedding day. Honestly, their entire team was wonderful to work with and our sneak peeks are just absolutely amazing and iI truly cannot wait to see the rest of our album!

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3
