Wish Photography

Kandis is an exceptional photographer and my husband and I are so happy that we hired her to document our special day. She makes posing comfortable, she managed our large family photos with ease, and she captured every detail of our wedding. Highly reccomend!

As the mother of a young bride I had the challenge of finding the right photographer to fit our needs. The most important thing to me was family portraits. Kandis was so organized and efficient in wrangling everyone and organizing us into a small window of time we had. Never planning a wedding before I really relied on Kandis for her knowledge and the most effective way to get everything of importance within our budget and time frame. Her knowledge and experience showed in not only her skills with the camera but with her communication and her ability to work under pressure. Wedding days are stressful and I was a mess. The first thing Kandis did was put her arms around me and tell me everything was going to go smoothly. We ended up running overtime with some of our timeline and Kandis stayed an extra 30 minutes without charge to make sure she got all the important parts. Her turn around time was fast and gallery we received was filled with a variety of images in both color and black and white. She gave us a variety of formal portraits and candids. A lot of detail pictures as well as things we didn’t even think about having photographed but we are so glad she paid attention to the small details. I am so glad we landed on her as our photographer and when my next three daughters gets married we will use her again.

Kandis is an absolutely phenomenal wedding photographer! From the very first email to the final delivery of our photos, she was prompt, professional, and incredibly attentive to our needs. She made us feel so comfortable and confident, ensuring that every important moment was captured beautifully. What truly sets Kandis apart is how she went above and beyond to make our day perfect. She took the time to double-check with us not only before the wedding but also on the day of, making sure she understood exactly what we wanted for specific shots. Her attention to detail and dedication to capturing our vision was remarkable. Kandis provided a stunning variety of angles and poses for similar portraits, allowing us to pick our absolute favorites. Her artistry shines through in every image, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Beyond her talent, Kandis is incredibly kind and friendly, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. She was the epitome of professionalism, and her warm demeanor put everyone at ease. We would hire Kandis again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer who truly cares about their clients and delivers exceptional work. Five stars aren’t enough to express how grateful we are for Kandis and the beautiful memories she captured for us!

I wish that I were here to leave nothing but a glowing review of Kandis and Wish Photography, however, that is not the case. Having been the one to encourage booking her services I feel the weight of responsibility as mother of the bride for the short comings of what was delivered at my daughters wedding and reception for the one lasting memory of her special day - the photos. Kandis was a minimum of 15 minutes late to the church which left everyone and everything feeling rushed just prior to walking down the aisle. The arrangements of people and photos was very disorganized for what the bride had requested as this was done by text message with Kandis prior to the wedding. Upon her arrival to the church all the same questions were asked again and then not many of the requests were followed. The photos finally received are beautiful. I have to mention though, that there are many repeats of the same pose, some just black and white or a change in zoom. The biggest issue was the early departure from the reception. No word or text saying there was any sort of issue with the mysterious “bee sting” just now being disclosed, or mention that she would be leaving several hours early. Not that night. Not the next day, or even the next week. My daughter went over a month with no response from Kandis. I had to reach out myself to inquire on delivery of the photos. In fact, my daughter had to finally research and find her personal social media page to get any sort of response to inquire what happened the night of the wedding and reception. In discussing this with another of her clients, there was also an early departure issue at their wedding as well. While there was a resolution reached between the parties, we would have much rather had photos of the events of the evening. The dance party, the guests at the reception, the bride and groom jumping into the pool. So many memories missed because our hired photographer was simply not there to capture the memories that we had planned to be able to save forever. Kandis has a great talent ~ and much room to grow and improve professionally. I would definitely recommend a great place to start would be checking in and out with your bride and those that have hired your services. Just a side note as well, it’s strange that there is really nowhere on her own websites that a client is able to leave a review. Only what she chooses to post. Please be aware.
