Bri S. Sent on 08/30/2023Working with Cynthia was a DREAM!
Cynthia was the best photographer I could’ve ever dreamed of. We used her for both our engagement photos and our wedding and we were thrilled. Her photos are stunning and I love how she excels in both film and digital shots. There is something so special about having film of our big day. Her eye for a good shot is something special. She captured all the small details to perfection. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and such a kind, reassuring presence on such a stressful day. We are so honored to have had her capture our special day and to have such treasured photos to look back at forever. I could not recommend her enough. -

Kind and professional, with amazing photography!
We feel so lucky to have had Cynthia as our photographer. She is incredibly professional, timely, and knows how to work in any situation that might come up on the day-of and wrangle family members together for those big group pictures. She also really gets to know you and your spouse and has such a warm, welcoming personality. We had initially booked her for a different date and had to change it to move our wedding out an entire year, AND changed the venue to a place that was not only difficult to get to travel-wise, but required a lot more logistics in general. Despite this, she was incredibly flexible, easy to work with, and so game for any changes that we made! Not to mention the absolute best part of working with her, apart from all of those other great factors, is really how incredible her pictures turn out. They captured our wedding perfectly. I felt so confident in having her as my photographer, that I did not hire a videographer. I am more than pleased to say that I didn't need one based on how great the photos turned out and how many pictures she took throughout the day! Now, as I am going back and printing them for family members for the holidays, I am always reminded and so impressed by her work and work ethic. It should be known that she had an incredibly busy weekend with our wedding on a Friday, another the day after, and her birthday the day after - and we still somehow received 60 fully edited photos the morning after our wedding! Cynthia goes above and beyond, and clearly works her tail off on every project, and it does not go unnoticed. We also never felt like we were just another wedding to her, her kindness and caring always shined through in every interaction via text, phone call, or in person. She is a master coordinator of all things leading up to the wedding and should honestly consider taking up wedding planning as a side gig too because she helped our day run SO smoothly. I cannot say enough good words about our experience with her (and her second photographer that helped throughout the day as well!) and recommend her highly to all of my family, friends, and anyone that will listen. -

Just the best!
Hiring Cynthia was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! Her light & airy style was
exactly what we were looking for and during our initial phone conversation I felt like I was speaking with
a friend. Cynthia has a great way of balancing her recommendations and professional opinion with what
each couple wants. It felt like we were on the same wavelength throughout our planning process. We
LOVED our engagement shoot and the photos turned out beautifully. She made both of us feel
comfortable in front of the camera. I was so excited to see her on our wedding day! She brought two
additional shooters and both were wonderful. Our families felt comfortable in front of the camera and
the team worked together exceptionally well. They did an amazing job keeping us on (and honestly
ahead of) schedule the entire day. Cynthia also smoothly accommodated every single thing I asked for
on the wedding day (like a last-minute mini “first look” with my brother). Cynthia is also adding value to
her services by providing film photography which was a beautiful bonus that we will always treasure. I
can’t praise the team enough for their wonderful work and keeping this bride calm on the wedding day. -

I cannot say enough good things about Cynthia! From the very first phone call through our wedding album delivery, we have been SO impressed with her professionalism, her talent, and how fast she is to deliver images without sacrificing quality. We had so much fun meeting Cynthia during our engagement shoot and knew without a doubt we had made the right decision because of how comfortable she made us feel. She gave us plenty of variety in recommended poses, was flexible with us through multiple outfit changes, and captured our love perfectly. On our wedding day, she was able to lead a huge bridal party through photos with ease and provided fun/ clear directions to everyone to make sure we got all of the shots that were important to us. She was always there to answer questions, provide tips, and make us feel at ease. She delivered SO many wonderful sneak peeks the day after our wedding, and soon after an entire album of images that we've looked at basically every day since :). We love how she organizes the album so that it's easy to find the images you're looking for (family vs. bridal party vs. portraits of my husband and I) and the quality/ quantity she delivers is truly unmatched. We would HIGHLY recommend Cynthia to anyone! -

Cynthia Mae Photography = Best Decision We Made
Anyone who knows me knows how important pictures are to me. I did a lot of research when I was looking for a photographer and as soon as I saw Cynthia’s page I instantly fell in love! Her pictures are beyond beautiful with the brightness and timeless look! From the start Cynthia was SO sweet and accommodating! She picked the absolutely best area! I was so nervous for our engagement shoot but Cynthia made us feel so comfortable and the pictures were beautiful and she got the cutest pictures of our pup! Throughout the whole wedding planning process she was there to help with any questions I had and to show us how everything should go so we felt prepared! Our wedding day was so stressful at first but once Cynthia arrived everything felt so calm and relaxed. She has a way of making you feel so comfortable and cared about! The pictures from our wedding day truly turned out beautiful! Better than I ever expected!! She made my family and the whole bridal party look amazing! Some of the pictures that she took, I cried when I saw them because she really captured the smallest moments of the day that meant so much! Cynthia is the sweetest and was the best decision we made for our wedding day!! We can’t wait to have her be our photographer in the future!🤍 -

Abbey K. Sent on 06/13/2022Best photographer we could have asked for!
Just after talking and inquiring with Cynthia over the phone, we were thrilled to hire her as our photographer! In November 2021, she captured our Big Day beautifully and we loved her company while she took our pictures! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer to capture the most heartwarming moments. -

Cannot recommend Cynthia enough!
Cynthia and her secondary shooters were an absolute pleasure to work with. We ran ahead of schedule all day for photos which was fabulous. They endured rain and heat for us all day! Cynthia is literally magic - between her film camera (so cool!) and her digital shooting, we got every desired shot we wanted 🙂 She was the hype girl I needed in my wedding day and rolled with the punches as the weather and our schedule changed throughout the day. She is absolutely 110% worth the investment in preserving your day 🤍 -

From the first time we talked to Cynthia we knew we wanted her to be our photographer. Cynthia was very flexible and accommodating, and was always quick to respond to any questions, comments, or concerns we had. Cynthia is very professional, but also loves to have fun too! We had gotten multiple comments from our wedding guests regarding how wonderful Cynthia was. It is clear that Cynthia truly loves what she does. And not to mention, the photos she takes are absolutely stunning! We would not have wanted anyone else to take our wedding photos. We would highly recommend Cynthia, and hope to work with her again in the future! -

Mackenzie N. Sent on 06/14/2022You MUST hire Cynthia Mae Photography for your wedding!
Cynthia was one of our first (and very best) hires throughout the wedding process after I fell in love with her timeless photos. She's delightful to work with and makes even the least photogenic subjects (like us!) feel comfortable in front of the camera. I trusted her to capture our day beautifully which made our wedding day stress-free. And to top it all off, she sent us 135+ pictures withing 24 hours of our wedding. Seriously?! She goes above and beyond for all of her clients, and you just MUST hire her for your wedding! -

Blaise Sent on 01/18/2022Is Cynthia Mae Photography Worth It?
If you're reading this you're probably on the hunt for a wedding photographer. Therefore, the pinnacle question on your mind likely boils down to; "is Cynthia Mae photography worth it?" The answer, is unequivocally "yes." Cynthia is worth it for her uncanny ability to make you feel at ease behind a camera. She is worth it for her easygoing and affable nature. She is worth it because her communication and responsiveness are second to none. She is worth it because her photographs will make you feel as if you waltzed off the page of a wedding magazine. Rest assured, dear bride-to-be, you are not hiring the camera, you are hiring the person behind the camera. And I can wholeheartedly say that person is incredible. -

Wonderful Last Minute Elopement Experience
We contacted Cynthia about a month before our spontaneous elopement. Originally we were going to go with another photographer but that photographer booked the date we had planned. Naturally, I was a little panicked about finding a replacement on such short notice but Cynthia responded quickly and was able to work with us. I am so glad we went with her to capture our wedding memories. From the first message she was friendly and always available to answer any questions we had.
The day of the wedding she was both personable and professional. We haven’t had professional photos as a couple before so we were glad when she helped us with posing. The poses she directed us in were natural and she was open to our input. When we were feeling awkward she joked around with us and made us laugh. It was very comfortable being photographed by Cynthia and she was flexible with our plans.
We wanted photos at the wedding venue and some at Saugatuck Dunes State Park (about 20 min away) and she was so accommodating even though we had to walk 1 mile to the beach at the second location. She was pleasant to talk to and get to know during our walk.
Finally, the photos themselves were gorgeous. We got them back within a month and there were about 250 photos in our album. Considering how short our ceremony was and that most of the photos were just the two of us, it was surprising that there were so many. They were all edited beautifully. I just had most of them printed and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.
We plan on doing a second ceremony with family and friends in 2023 and we definitely want to work with her again. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, you can’t go wrong with Cynthia. -

Kelsey S. Sent on 08/30/2021Stop what you are doing & book c.b.!
Oh my goodness... where do I even begin?! We cannot say enough amazing things about Cynthia! As soon as we got engaged we knew that wedding photography was at the top of our priority list. She was one of the first ones that I had found and reached out to. I honestly emailed at least 30 different photographers in total and I kept going back to her and comparing everyone to her every single time. Not only because she had the best package for the best price with the most gorgeous light/airy vibe, but she was SO enthusiastic and personable right away! From the moment we booked with her we knew we made the absolute best decision!!
We booked our engagement session shortly after and we finally got to meet her in person. We both felt like we had known her forever because of how comfortable she made us feel. Neither of us had any idea what to expect, but she made it sooo easy and so much fun we didn't want our session to end! She coached us through what to do the entire time to get the most genuine candid photos that turned out beautifully. This made us SO excited to hang out with her again on wedding day!
Throughout the planning process she was incredibly organized and on top of things, which was a major plus because that's totally what I needed. She was always checking in on me, always quick to respond if I had a question, created a day of timeline with me, and always had the best tips/advice to make wedding day run perfectly smooth!
On wedding day, she just made everything so effortless. She knew where to be and when to be there. We had a large bridal party and she handled our rowdy group with grace. She not only captures the important big moments throughout the day, but also the small behind the scenes moments that are some of the most memorable that we will forever cherish!
Less than 24 hours later she gave us over a hundred sneak peaks that were just breathtaking. That is just unheard of. Our friends & family could not stop raving about her as a person and her amazing talent!! Neither could we!
Bottom line - Cynthia is absolutely wonderful at what she does. She takes it to the next level and was so much more to us than our photographer! She made our whole experience so much better than we could have ever imagined!!

Samantha H. Sent on 10/11/2020Dedicated and Empathetic Wedding Photographer - She's the Best!
From the very beginning, Cynthia was friendly and easy to talk to. She was willing to call both my parents and my fiance's parents to explain every detail of the photo package. Cynthia helped us come up with a beautiful location for our engagement photos and made my fiance feel SO comfortable when taking them (like many men, he hates taking pictures). The pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL and we had the previews the SAME DAY. We received all of our engagement pictures within a week. When Covid-19 hit the US hard, we became concerned about our wedding even happening. Cynthia was only a text away and was reassuring me that it would all be okay! She helped me think of different options (totally not even her job!); she went above and beyond to help us make our wedding day happen, and happen exactly how we wanted given the circumstances. She arrived on time during the wedding day with her second shooter and began working with the groomsmen and my other family right away while I finished getting ready. Cynthia's work is absolutely gorgeous, and I received so many photos back from our day. I can't wait to hang those photos up around my house and to cherish them forever. I couldn't have had a better photographer, and I honestly plan on hiring her again and again in the future for anniversary and family photos. Huge thanks to Cynthia as she was a huge reason I was able to stay sane during this crazy Covid-19 planning! I'm forever grateful. -

Isabel D. Sent on 10/03/2021Absolutely Amazing!
From the start, Cynthia was so incredibly easy to work with. We had seen her body of work and knew her photos were gorgeous but there is so much more to Cynthia than that. She was incredibly attentive to us while we planned our unique wedding day and was so helpful and flexible when it came to our planning. However, the greatest thing that Cynthia brought to our wedding day was her attitude and presence. Brides, your wedding photographer will be there with you while you are getting ready for the most special day of your life- their aura and personality cannot be overlooked! Cynthia brought such a light and calming presence with her (while still being a complete professional) to an otherwise hectic "getting ready" time, and that alone was enough to make me so grateful we chose her to be our photographer. Cynthia was so easy-going but also worked incredibly hard to get the most amazing shots of us, all the while taking into consideration how we were feeling on our day. Our photos were so beautiful, we cannot recommend Cynthia enough! -

Easily the best decision we made
Hiring Cynthia Boyle as our photographer for our wedding last month was the best decision I made while we were wedding planning. When people tell you your wedding day goes fast you cannot possibly wrap your head around it until you have lived it and FELT how fast a day can actually go. Cynthia kept us on schedule and was a calm presence and delivered photographs to us that were so effortlessly beautiful and in only a few weeks!
We find ourselves looking through them over and over again finding our "new favorite" picture from the day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for capturing our wedding day in a way that blew our expectations out of the water!

Alex&Lexi S. Sent on 03/02/2021AMAZING- Cynthia captured our big day so BEAUTIFULLY!!!
I truly don’t even know where to start! There are not enough words to talk about how AMAZING Cynthia is!! From our first conversation I was hooked - her kindness is contagious and her passion for her work is unmatched! She is an EXCEPTIONAL photographer and an even better human being!
As soon as we booked Cynthia she immediately sent a book with all things wedding! It was a huge help throughout the planning process with what to wear, how to prepare your groom, and just all the details you would need for engagement shoot and the big day!!
Our engagement shoot was a blast!! She never made you feel rushed or uncomfortable! We truly felt like we had known her for years! It was a ton of fun and the pictures were BEAUTIFUL!! These happened through COVID and Cynthia was so flexible with days and times as well as locations! The best part — we had at least 5 previews by the end of the night!! Her turn around time is INCREDIBLE!!
Our wedding happened through COVID and it looked a lot different than we initially intended it to. Cynthia was the best listening ear and friend throughout the entire process. She revamped our day of timeline about 1000x to make it perfect for our modified day! As soon as she showed up the day of I was so excited! She made everyone feel so comfortable and at ease! She made sure everything was on time and running smoothly - literally the MVP of the day!! We also had a HUGE bridal party - we are talking 11 bridesmaids and 11 groomsman. Cynthia was able to coordinate and direct everyone so smoothly and effortlessly! We received at least 10 previews the next day and our full wedding gallery just 2.5 weeks after our big day. Her turn around time is AMAZING!! We absolutely love all of our pictures - her work is so so beautiful!
In short - the reason I chose Cynthia to capture our wedding day was because I loved her style, bright, light, photos. After getting to know her and personally experiencing her work I would choose her over and over again. I really can’t recommend Cynthia enough! She makes you feel so comfortable and like you have been friends for years. SHE IS INCREDIBLE!!!! -
