Hi, I’m Cynthia Graham, and I am “light-headed”. I work as a black and white portrait photographer, photographing mostly kids, babies, and pregnant bellies. Occasionally full grown people not associated with kids, babies or pregnant bellies. But my passion is photographing children, for while they can be elusive and slippery little beings to capture on film, I find the rewards so worth the effort extended.

I believe to photograph a child well, one should get down to their level, be willing to let go of all pretentiousness and expectation, and quietly enter their world. See what they see. Be in the present moment. That is where the magic is……always.

I think I’ve chosen to specialize in children’s portraiture because with every session I embark on, these children are teaching me the things I once had well memorized, but forgot. The really important stuff like wonder, inquisitiveness, and unbridled joy. Putting one’s whole self into everything you do: heart, mind, body, and soul.

This work has changed my life.
