We had the good fortune of connecting with Cindy Perez and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cindy, let’s start by talking about what inspires you?
What inspires me ? I’d say authenticity, staying true to yourself and who you are as a person. God created us so uniquely. Whether in my photography or daily life, I’m all for the real and raw moments that reflect genuine connections.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Photography for me, is more than just taking pictures, it’s about capturing the real, unfiltered moments that make life so special. My style is warm, natural, and timeless, focusing on candid storytelling that allows families to relive their most cherished memories.

I started my photography journey in 2019, on and off, but after becoming a mom, my passion for capturing special moments really was so special to me. I took a break during maternity leave, and now, I’m diving back into my business full force, balancing photography with being a stay-at-home mom and a full-time job. It hasn’t been easy, a lot of self-doubt and the fear of what others might think have been challenges along the way. But I’ve learned that growth happens when you step out of your comfort zone.

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned is that photography is not just about the tech side, and gear you have, it’s about connection. The connection you build, that’s what makes us as a photographer, not the gear but YOU. I try to make every session feel effortless and enjoyable, making my clients feel comfortable.

Through my work, I want the world to see the beauty in the everyday, the simple moments of laughter, the soft touches, the in-between that often go unnoticed. My goal is to create images that bring people back to a feeling, not just a memory.

I hope my brand becomes known for its authenticity and heartfelt storytelling. Whether it’s a new mom to be, newborn snuggles, playful family moments, or celebrating life’s milestones, I’m here to preserve those memories in a way that feels true to you.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I’d say Orlando! I’m a sucker for all things Orlando, I’ll take a trip over there any day. Go for some coffee ice cream, downtown Disney, watch the fireworks at Disney, and enjoy the vibe.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Yes! My husband #1, & all my photographer friends who have helped and have given me so much motivation since day 1. They know who they are!
