Cindy Knull bio picture
  • Greetings!

    When I was six years old, my mother gave me a diary.  I remember very distinctly that it was red with a little brass lock.  This began my journey into recording the details of my everyday life.  Writing has always been a love of mine and a necessary part of my self expression.  While in school working towards my English degree,  I had the opportunity to visit the John Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles.  To my great pleasure, the feature exhibits consisted of many great Masters of Photography. One of whom was the great Andre Kertesz.  I immediately fell in love with his ability to form the perfect snapshot and felt something inside myself completely identify.  It was upon reading a quote by Mr. Kertesz that I went home and promptly changed my major to Photography.  The words were simply, "I write with light."

    I'm a street shooter at heart, who people hire when they want honest and intelligent images documenting personal events. I dabble in portraiture. I run half marathons. And write, a lot.

    I'm currently working on several personal projects. One of which is my first novel.

Surely Goodness Will Follow…

I haven’t been posting much lately. You see, I’ve been battling some pretty major depression. It started as a physical issue, my body was just run down, but then it has now spread into my mind. I’m trying really hard to not run from it or stuff it or suppress it. To be honest, I’m tired. I’ve started getting out and taking walks when I just want to sleep. But then sleep eludes me and finds me awake at odd hours or too early in the morning. Waking up tired, makes the day seem empty and hopeless. I know intuitively it’s not, but depression in a lot of ways can’t be reasoned with. I thought to fight my way out of it, but I am on a journey of self discovery lately and have decided to just be in the moment. I think in this case, the depression is trying to tell me something. So, as I lean into it, I will keep my heart open and listen and feel. I’m trying to not be so hard on myself, be kind to myself, and take note of the little things that might bring a spark, like tiny pink carnations with long green stems and fresh figs, eaten with much pause….
