So what does this mean for all of you?  There are now more options to choose from for the Candace Jeffery Photography experience!  Josh and I are still the owners and main photographers for Candace Jeffery Photography. We will continue booking weddings and portrait jobs as we have in the past.  You now also get the option of choosing between Josh and I or Maegan and Joe for your photographic needs.  If you do choose to book Maegan and Joe you should feel very confident in their professionalism, talent and ability to photograph your wedding in a style that is similar to ours.  You can check out their Bio and Pricing information on our official website: www.candacejefferyphotography.com

A warm welcome to the couples that have already signed for the 2013 and 2014 weddings with Maegan and Joe, we can’t wait to see the beautiful images that are created for you!

Here are some photos that Josh and I took of them a few weeks back:
