About me…


I’ve been working with clients since for close to 10 years, but my career as a photographer really started when I took photos of all my friends at my 6th-grade graduation! Fast forward to today, I am living my dream of working with people and creating something that truly sparks joy.

I’m here to make your portrait session stress-free, enjoyable, and unforgettable. Whether you’re looking for timeless family portraits, stunning senior photos, or heartfelt maternity shots, my goal is to capture authentic, beautiful moments that reflect your unique story. I’ll guide you every step of the wayβ€”from helping you choose the perfect location and outfits to ensuring you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. With a keen eye for detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality images, I’m here to provide you with photos you’ll treasure for years to come. Let’s create something truly special together!

About my style…

My photography style is all about capturing you at your best with genuine connections. During our session, we’ll explore a mix of poses and locationsβ€”standing, walking, and even sitting if the setting allows. While we’ll take a few classic shots looking at the camera, the true magic happens in those candid moments where your personality and relationships shine. For families, expect plenty of closeness, laughter, and playful interactions. For seniors, I’ll guide you through each pose with care, ensuring everything feels natural and effortless. When you trust me and embrace the opportunity to express yourself, we’ll create photos that feel vibrant, meaningful, and uniquely you.

We had a fantastic experience with Cindy as she captured photos of our greater family for my dad's 80th birthday.  She took the time to "coach" us on posture and posing and it made a world of difference!  She got great smiles out of the teenagers and the toddlers, and made the adults feel comfortable and at ease as well.  It was truly a great time! Highly recommend Cindy Richey Photography!
