Capturing Dreams
A Heartwarming Journey of Love, Family and Photography
Cindy and daughter
In August 2024, Dreamcapture Photography celebrated a meaningful milestone when the owner lovingly transformed her two-car garage into a professional studio. What began as a dream in 2012 has blossomed into a flourishing business dedicated to capturing life's most precious moments—specializing in newborn and maternity photography that families will cherish for generations.
This journey started over a decade ago when she graduated and pursued her passion at Tulsa Tech for photography training. Her talent and dedication shone when she competed and won an additional free year of schooling. Beginning with outdoor sessions and prints, she took a brief pause before discovering her true calling in newborn and maternity photography nine years ago. Since then, she has poured her heart into perfecting this specialized craft.
Her commitment to excellence has been recognized throughout the photography community. After four years of passionate study and practice, she invested her competition winnings into business school, where her dedication was rewarded—she won second place internationally for her photography business plan. Her artistic achievements include gold, silver, and bronze awards in maternity, newborn, and family photography competitions. She's currently developing her own workshop for newborn and maternity photography, with hopes of launching this September.
What truly sets Dreamcapture Photography apart is the personalized attention and genuine care given to every client. Every photograph is lovingly hand-edited, and she works closely with families to style outfits and poses that reflect their unique personality. Going above and beyond, she provides extra snacks and delightful surprises for children during sessions, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and engaged. Her popular mermaid sessions offer one-of-a-kind experiences that bring joy to entire families.
Safety and professionalism remain paramount in her practice. She maintains CPR certification and specialized training in safely handling newborns, giving parents peace of mind during their sessions. "I put a lot of heart into what I do," she shares warmly, emphasizing that clients receive not just skilled photography but a caring professional who genuinely values their experience.
At home on the outskirts of Broken Arrow, she lives on two acres with her three daughters—Lillyanah (8), River (5), and Hazel (3)—along with their beloved pets: Maverick the Australian Shepherd, Diesel the German Shepherd, and Jazmin, their cherished 10-year-old Russian Blue cat. The family's love for outdoor adventures, hiking, camping, and fishing influences her appreciation for natural beauty, which shines through in her photography work.
Rather than following industry trends, Dreamcapture Photography focuses on creating timeless, unique images that stand apart. "I don't like following trends," she shares. "I love for clients' pictures to feel like their pictures are different from everyone else's—truly special and uniquely theirs."
For families seeking a photographer who combines technical expertise with genuine heart and creativity, Dreamcapture Photography offers an experience that goes far beyond a simple photo session—it's a celebration of family and precious memories.
