Cynthia was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. From our very first conversation to the final delivery of our photos, she brought such a calm, grounding presence that made the entire experience feel effortless. On a day filled with so much emotion and excitement, having her there was truly a gift.

What sets Cynthia apart is her remarkable ability to capture real emotion and tell a story through her photos. Of course, we love our portraits and family photos, but the images we find ourselves returning to again and again are the quiet, in between moments. The photos that instantly transport you back to how the day felt. The glances, the laughter, the tears, and the moments we didn't even realize were happening were all captured by Cynthia. She has such a natural eye for the little details that make the story feel complete when you scroll through your gallery.

My husband was so worried our wedding day would feel like an all day photo shoot, and because of Cynthia, it never felt that way at all. She lets you truly live in the moment, almost like a fly on the wall, while still being incredibly perceptive and stepping in with subtle cues or reassurance exactly when needed. We always felt completely confident that she we capturing everything beautifully, without ever pulling us out of the experience.

If we had to go back and do it all again, Cynthia Mae Photography would be our choice every single time. We are beyond grateful for the way she preserved our day, not just as photos, but as memories we will relive for the rest of our lives.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Cynthia. From our engagement shoot on, she felt like a friend and made us feel instantly comfortable. On our wedding day, she took the time to get to know our families and made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera.
Her photos truly tell the story of the day through movement and emotion. She’s not just photographing, she’s storytelling. As a bride who chose not to have a videographer, this meant everything to me. Our families were amazed by how many beautiful moments she captured without hours of stiff, posed portraits.
Cynthia’s work is real, pure, and emotional with a stunning editorial edge that perfectly matched our wedding aesthetic. We will cherish these photos forever.

We couldn’t be happier with our decision to hire Cynthia as our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. We have very limited hours with busy work schedules, and she was always so flexible in accommodating us.

She managed to capture every meaningful moment without ever being intrusive — it truly felt like she was part of the celebration, not just documenting it. As can be seen, the photos turned out absolutely stunning. Cynthia has an amazing eye and managed to capture moments big and small.

If you're looking for a photographer who is warm, incredibly skilled, and somehow captures your vision perfectly on film - Cynthia is the photographer for you.

Cynthia was an absolute pleasure to work with! She has such a calm, easy-going presence that instantly put my husband and me at ease. Something we especially appreciated during the emotional moments of our big day. Even when we fell behind schedule and I worried we wouldn’t have enough time for photos, Cynthia reassured me we’d get plenty and she was absolutely right. She managed to capture so many beautiful moments, some of which I had no idea she was even photographing. This made the whole experience feel so natural.

We recently received our wedding album, and we are truly in awe of Cynthia’s artistry and talent. Her ability to tell our story through photos is unmatched. She goes above and beyond, not only on the wedding day itself, but also in the months leading up to it. She made sure every detail was perfect and that we got photos that matched our wedding Pinterest inspo board. We couldn’t be more grateful to have had her capture our day!

Booking Cynthia as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day!
I was a bit nervous to be in front of the camera that much on our wedding day, but those concerns went away after we had our engagement photos with Cynthia. She made us both feel so comfortable and excited for our wedding day photos. Fast forward to our wedding day, it was one of the hottest & windiest days in June, but Cynthia worked her magic to provide us with stunning photos. She was strategic and agile with the timeline considering the heat, too. My family & bridal party even commented on her ability to organize the large bridal party with such a calm & patient presence. We absolutely love our photos and can’t stop looking at them, especially because Cynthia does such a great job of telling the story through the photos and capturing the candid moments that carry the most emotions. Not to mention, she is so speedy with her turnaround times!

There are so many things I could say about Cynthia—her eye for beautiful moments, her creativity, her talent—but what I really want to say is this: Cynthia was the one person I never had to stress about on our wedding day.

I have followed Cynthia’s work for many years and knew she would be the perfect fit for our big day once it came to deciding on photographers. From the very first phone call, she was such a comforting presence. As a “Type A” bride, I knew trusting vendors to bring our vision to life would be tough, but Cynthia asked all of the right questions, sent timelines and made sure there was nothing for me to worry about. I never had to chase her for answers or wonder what the next step was. She was professional but also incredibly warm—someone I genuinely enjoyed working with!

On the day of our wedding, Cynthia showed up early, camera in hand, calm, collected, and completely in sync with everything happening around us. She somehow managed to be everywhere without ever being in the way. She caught the quiet in-between moments, the belly laughs, the teary smiles—things I didn’t even see!

And it gets even better! The photos? They're everything. They're us. They're better than I even hoped. We have so loved re-living this day over and over again through Cynthia’s work.

Cynthia was the absolute best and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking!

I knew we had found our photographer after one conversation with Cynthia. Beyond her portfolio being absolutely stunning, she had an ability to, in just a single call, make me feel heard, understood, and calm. I knew that she would bring her beautiful artistry to our wedding day but, most importantly, her intentional, kind, and creative spirit. And we were right! Cynthia was incredible from the start and throughout the entire process. She was always just a text away, supporting us through logistical issues, helping to build timelines, and answering our crazy questions. On the day of our wedding, she was there for every moment. She captured venue shots, family portraits, candid laughter, overflowing emotions, pure joy, and lots of silliness. She was game for all our requests. And she ensured that we had all of the photos that we wanted before leaving, including a brief but fun intermission for evening photos outside the venue. I am also astounded by how quickly she turned around our previews (the next day - what??!?) and our full album just a few weeks later! The photos are simply gorgeous and we couldn't be happier. My friend took one look at our album and said "I don't envy you because there is no way you're going to be able to pick just a few of these to print because they're all INCREDIBLE." And I agree 100%! Thank you to Cynthia for so thoughtfully and beautifully recording our day. We will treasure these photos forever!

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Cynthia. From the moment she arrived on our wedding day, she was the ultimate hype woman — making us feel confident, joyful, and completely at ease in front of the camera. Her energy was infectious and exactly what we needed on such a big day.

Not only is Cynthia incredibly kind and easy to work with, but she’s also a phenomenal communicator and deeply professional. She kept everything running smoothly and was always one step ahead — from helping wrangle family members for group shots to capturing candid moments we’ll treasure forever.

And let’s talk about her talent — the photos are absolutely stunning. Every single image is beautifully composed and filled with emotion. We were genuinely blown away when she got our entire gallery back to us in under a month! That kind of turnaround, without sacrificing quality, speaks volumes about her dedication and work ethic.

We’re so grateful we had Cynthia as our photographer. She didn’t just document our day — she enhanced it. If you’re considering working with her, don’t hesitate. She’s a gem.

Choosing Cynthia as our wedding photographer may have been the best decision we made among all of our wedding plans. She is an absolute joy to work with and her work speaks for itself - stunning, real, and inspired. Her level of care and close attention to detail were apparent from the start. She sought to learn all about our excitements and concerns for the big day - any and all details so that she could bring our vision to life in photos. Her system to collect information and document plans was streamlined, professional, and made collaboration easy. At the same time, she was only a text message away. At any stage where I felt stuck with our timeline or overwhelmed, Cynthia was ready to jump on the phone and talk me through it. I felt like I had a friend coaching me through - a friend who knows weddings like the back of her hand. More than anything, photo shoots with Cynthia were so fun. From the engagement photo shoot to wedding day portraits, our time with Cynthia was so enjoyable - a time where we got to be together, laugh, and celebrate the moment. And I can’t even begin to describe how beautifully the moments were captured. The small details, the candid memories, everything.

Thank you Cynthia! With love, Sophie and Nick Deely

We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. From our first meeting with Cynthia we felt completely at ease and knew that our big day was in good hands. She took the time to get to know us, understanding exactly what we wanted in our photos, and even offered helpful suggestions based her experience.
We unfortunately had to cancel our original wedding due to natural disaster damage, we ended up rescheduling and relocating our wedding all in 2 weeks and Cynthia made the process SO easy and went above and beyond to make sure our day was the perfect day for us.
On the wedding day, Cynthia was professional, attentive, and truly captured the essence of the day. She had a remarkable ability to be in the right place at the right time, taking candid shots that perfectly reflected the joy and emotion of the day, while also coordinating beautiful formal portraits. We were particularly impressed with how she made everyone feel comfortable, ensuring that our friends and family were relaxed, which resulted in natural, stunning photos.
The final images were beyond our expectations. Each photo tells a story, from the quiet moments to the big celebrations, and we love how Cynthia was able to capture the intimate, special moments we may have missed in the whirlwind of the day. The quality of the photos is exceptional, and we couldn’t be happier with the final gallery that we received within 24 hours.
We highly recommend Cynthia to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and passionate photographer. Thank you again for preserving the memories of our wedding day in such a beautiful way!
