Nice to meet you! I'm Cindy.

Hey there! I’m a photographer who loves blending the fast-paced energy of sports with the personal touch of portrait photography. Whether I’m on the sidelines or behind the lens at a senior session, I’m all about capturing real, powerful moments that tell a story—your story.


What makes my work special isn’t just the gear or the technique (though that’s part of it!). It’s the connection I build with each person I photograph. I want you to feel confident and comfortable, and to walk away seeing yourself in a new light—strong, beautiful, and uniquely you.


From the thrill of a game-winning play to the quiet confidence of a portrait session, I believe photography has the power to lift people up. Every session is a chance to create something meaningful together—and maybe even have a little fun while we’re at it.



If you are in the greater Portland or Southern Maine area, or want to bring me along on your travels, please reach out. I'd love to talk to you!
