Let’s create something honest, warm, and beautifully yours.
Meet the Photographer
hi, i'm cindy!
I'm a mom, a yoga teacher, a wife, a dog mom, and a doctorate student, and a photographer. Born in Indonesia, I moved to NYC at 17 and have been navigating life’s many transitions—including my biggest one yet: motherhood.
Photography found me in a tender season - during pregnancy, when everything felt raw, fleeting, and sacred. I began to take photos not just to remember, but to feel - to hold still the moments I knew would slip by too quickly. What started as an obsession with memory (yes, the kind with no storage left!) became a calling to help others slow down and honor their own stories, too.

Cindy with setgophotos was such a joyyy to work with! I was looking for a photographer to bring my vision to life for a couples shoot and she did JUST that. Cindy is communicative, genuinely kind, and truly good at what she does. Even with a newborn, she delivered our gallery within a week. I would absolutely book setgophotos in the future & you should too! Thank you Cindy.

Cindy was an absolute joy to work with! She is incredibly sweet, patient, and made the entire session feel fun and effortless. She captured my little family so beautifully — the photos made my heart just burst! Every shot was filled with warmth and love, and I know well cherish these images forever. Cindy truly is wonderful, and I couldn't recommend her more.

We had such a fun time with Cindy. She captured the most precious moments of our family. Getting pictures with a toddler is not easy but yet she was able to capture the best photos. I would definitely book with her again.
