Meet Cindy
I am an Ottawa based wedding and lifestyle photographer, and nothing inspires me more than your authentic love story.
Take me on your adventure whether it’s at the cottage, a swanky venue, or a shabby street corner. What matters most is the people in the frame.
There is nothing I love more than working with humans who aren’t afraid to let their hair down and who believe in the magic of what is meant to be.
I’ve always been an artist and a dreamer. At 19 I decided to set aside my love of painting, and academic life to go work at sea. For 9 months, I pinched my pennies until I was able to enroll at a photography school in Vancouver, BC. During my studies, and to my surprise I fell in love with street photography – the fleeting moments and raw emotions. This eventually evolved into a passion for photographing people in love.
I am generally soft spoken, but have no issues rallying people and getting things done. I am known to be the calming and grounding force in a room even if it’s going to thunderstorm, or you’ve forgotten your bowtie. I have a goofy side that most people don’t see coming. I also love to flow with the crowd when the music is pumping.
Seeing the real you
Nothing is more inspiring to me than the opportunity to truly know you.
Whether I have a camera in hand or if we are simply exchanging a few words, I will create a space for you to feel seen. My approach to photography is simple. I will read your energy and translate it to shadows and light.
Unposed
The best moments are the real ones.
If being real in front of the camera feels impossible, I promise, it’s not. I will prompt you with questions that will make you laugh or cry; I will ask you to reminisce about the good times, and I will capture the little moments between the big ones.
I can assure you that your photos will never look stiff or unnatural. And if you’re wondering, I will also make sure to capture some classic smiles and posed family photos for the archives.
Throughout the day, I will blend in with your guests so that I capture the essence. I want to you reflect on the big moments, but also see all of the small moments that are too fleeting to remember.
Your wedding gallery will have you reliving the day through everyone’s eyes and hearts.
