I had an amazing experience at candy in Miramar, the staff was so nice and helpful with the senior pictures. My photographer Lee helped me greatly with the poses and asked what I wanted. And the receptionist Justin was so nice checking us in and informing us of our session and deals.
Ace & Carl did my pictures very beautifully and I loved the experience.

I had a great time at Cady! Everyone was very polite and understanding there, especially Andrew when I asked him if I could retake my yearbook pictures. He had a lot of patience with me and took his time making sure I liked my pictures. He made me feel very comfortable and very happy with all of my photos. I had a lot of fun with him taking my pictures, he was very sweet to me and my mom. I appreciate everyone for all of their hard work, I had a wonderful experience here! Will always recommend this place!!
Sandra Gonzalez Oct. 2023 STAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARPSTAR-SHARP Every staff member at CADY has been so kind and understanding with my mom and I. Chris was the person who took my photos (acting headshots specifically) and he was so patient with me and made sure to get all of the shots I needed. The music is great and in there! The decor looks super cute and fun! Great experience! HAND-WAVE A Personal Welcome

Letter from the Leaders My Journey: How I ended up at Cady! I was born and raised in France to immigrant parents, my mom from Portugal and my Dad from Spain. I was blessed with the ability to speak many languages that I have utilized throughout my career, but one thing I learned from my parents was integrity, give your all, and show love for our family. My mom, especially, was compassionate and always took the time to help others. I've worked for most of my career in managing jewelry stores, not because of the beauty of the pieces but because of the relationships I would build through the years. It was more of a mission to be part of creating a memorable experience for others during one of the most important parts of their life. The commitment to always deliver at the highest level - the kind of service they would not encounter anywhere else. After Covid, things changed at the company I was employed with; they decided to close 53 locations, including mine, even being a top performer for the company. They offered a relocation, but I was unable to at that time and decided to pursue something entirely different, yet still carrying the same values I have always held and being authentic to my mission. I didn’t want a job, rather I wanted to always be part of something bigger than myself. I came across CADY. I researched the company and learned more about the vision and mission and they happened to be aligned with what I believed. After losing my mother to cancer, all I had left of her was the years of memories shared together on a printed paper. Those mementos we call photos meant way more to me because it was the only thing left of her. The only vivid images of cherished moments in my life and one of the most valuable items I own as of today of her; something to hold on to, something to look back on to recreate, and to keep those memories alive forever. I decided to join CADY for the same purpose because I knew it was important for me to take part in creating special memories for the students and parents. They can leave a footprint behind on this very special and memorable occasion for them to ensure that everyone understands that in our studio it is not just pictures they are taking, but so much more than that. It will always be that once-in-a-lifetime experience that they will never forget and always be able to relive that special moment they shared once they look back on those fine printed memories. These are all the reasons I am passionate about what I do each and every day. It is not a job, it is so much more for me each day! -- Elisabeth Rodriguez

The colors in the picture are perplexing. The use of the foliage to bring out the green in the scene alongside the subjects white and black outfit create a beautiful 13 combination of nature and personality.
