Hi, I’m Candice! Photographer, storyteller, mama of five, and a big believer that beautiful spaces and beautiful moments deserve to be captured.

I picked up a camera professionally at 21, and now that I’ve officially entered my 40s, I can say I’m still loving every minute of it! From weddings and events to interiors, lifestyle, and product photography, I’ve spent nearly two decades photographing the people, places, and details that tell a story.

I married my teenage crush, and together we built Mark Brooke Photography from the ground up when I was 23. For the first ten years, Mark was my partner in crime, carrying gear, chasing light, and shooting right alongside me. What started as a passion turned into a career that has taken us through more than 500 weddings, events, family sessions, product launches, and beautiful homes.

These days, Mark calls himself the Laundry King of Charleston (yes, we own a laundromat!), but I’m still behind the camera doing what I love most.

Life looks a little different these days. We have five kids, including our newest little addition, and you can usually find me juggling motherhood and creative projects with coffee in hand, a camera on my shoulder, and quite possibly a baby on my hip. I wouldn't have it any other way!

I love the variety photography brings. One day I’m capturing the excitement of a wedding day, and the next I’m photographing a beautifully designed home, a creative brand, or the little details that make a space special. Whether it's people or places, I believe everything has a story worth telling.

My goal is always the same: to create timeless, beautiful imagery that feels natural, tells a story, and makes you fall in love with the moment or space all over again.

I'd love to work together!
