With 10 + years of experience producing photo, video, and digital content, I bring creative ideas to life through structure, strategy, and seamless execution. From concept development to delivery, I bridge the gap between artistry and operations, ensuring every project runs smoothly, stays on budget, and exceeds expectations.
I’m seeking a long-term role where I can help teams produce beautiful, on-brand content at scale, collaborating closely with creative, marketing, and production partners to make every shoot a success.
If you’re looking for someone who can balance creative vision with production precision, you’ve just found your match.
Hi, I’m Candace Perry. From creative brief to final frame, I bring brand stories to life.
As the founder of Beautiful You Studios, I grew it into a $1.3M portrait studio from the ground up in just five years, producing shoots for both boudoir and branding clients. Managing everything from creative direction to set design and post-production taught me that true magic happens when structure meets creativity, frequent client pep talks, and a little caffeine.
Before launching my studio, I spent years as a fashion and beauty photographer, managing casting, budgets, and creative direction for editorial shoots. Along the way, I also stepped in front of the lens as a professional model and actress, backed by a minor in theater specializing in acting for the camera. Over a decade of experience on all sides of the lens has given me a superpower few producers or creative directors have: The ability to see every angle, from lighting and emotion to energy and flow, and turn it into visuals that make people feel something.
After more than 500 productions, I’ve mastered the art of juggling creative storytelling with logistical precision. I’ve led teams, wrangled vendors, and delivered projects under tight deadlines, always keeping countless parts humming in sync & the process fun, collaborative, and beautifully on brand.
When I closed my studio in 2024 due to the economy, I jumped into a role with Jane Media, producing podcasts and social media content for an influencer. Now that my contract is wrapping up, I’m ready to bring that same drive, creativity, and production know-how into a larger creative organization, one where I can keep leading shoots, supporting amazing teams, and crafting stories that move people.
Known for my calm under pressure, attention to detail, and ability to turn big ideas into flawless execution, I’m ready to be your go-to gal, the one who gets it done beautifully, efficiently, and with a smile...because every great story needs a hero behind the scenes. LET’S ROLL!
