Hi, I’m Cindy, photographer and owner of Milestones by Cindy.

My love for photography began when I was just 10 years old through 4-H, and I’ve had a camera in my hands ever since. Over the years, I’ve photographed nature, families, couples, weddings, celebrations, and countless everyday moments. For most of those years, photography wasn’t a business—it was simply something I loved.

Now, after decades behind the camera, I’m turning that lifelong passion into Milestones by Cindy.

I believe the photographs we treasure most aren’t always the perfectly posed ones. They’re the genuine laugh, the look between two people who love each other, the personality of a beloved pet, or the excitement of a senior about to begin a new chapter.

That’s why my sessions are relaxed, personal, and designed around you. Whether I’m photographing a senior, family, couple, pet, or intimate wedding, I want to capture more than what this moment looks like—I want to preserve what it feels like.

Giving back is also important to me. Through Milestones Gives Back, I hope to partner with local schools and community organizations to provide complimentary senior portraits and family sessions to those who may not otherwise have access to professional photography.

I’m a lifelong photographer, member of the Notre Dame Camera Club, wife, mom, animal lover, and someone who probably notices beautiful light everywhere I go.

You don’t have to know how to pose or be comfortable in front of a camera. Just bring the people you love. I’ll help you preserve the moment.

Because these aren’t just photographs. They’re your milestones.
