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.

Brad

This is the kindest sweetest man I know.  And I am in a complete understanding that I do not deserve him.  I rarely ever really talk about my husband nor do I ever show too many images of he and I together.  I don’t know, it’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just that I think life gets in the way and I just don’t want to ask somebody to take our picture.  We live a pretty quiet life.  We keep to ourselves and we raise our children.  Our favorite thing to do together is pop popcorn, lay on the sofa and watch a movie of some sort, be it a fictional movie or a documentary.  We share a love of film making.  We also love cooking together.  It’s something we don’t necessarily do a lot of, but we enjoy the time when we do.  One of the things I love about Brad is that he is ever mindful of those around him.  He absolutely wholeheartedly is a man in love with his daughters.  He is a human who could not function without their presence in his life.  His heart is always for them, loving, playing, supporting, thinking and working to be the best father a girl could want.  We often talk late at night about whether or not we are “doing” the “right” things by way of our children.  He’s always concerned with the question, “Am I a good dad?”  He sacrifices his own personal needs for the happiness of our children.  I admire him and admonish him in that endeavor.  Girls need a daddy.  He is the father, I never had.  And that brings me a joy that I never knew I could feel.  He also loves me, without end.  When this life is over, and I stand at the end, I can say, that I was someone who was truly loved.  Brad gives and gives and gives to me without complaint, without fatigue, without restraint.  He is a man of his word.  Where I have struggled, he stands strong.  I am a blessed woman.  And I love him.  I love this man of mine.

PS: I would be honored to take some images of the two of you. Let me know when…maybe during break.

A beautiful portrait of a loving man. A very honest post, and I too have a loving man, and I in the past have often felt that I didn’t deserve him. But that is something that has changed (for the better).I’m finally owning that yes, I do deserve him — I give to him in ways that are as essential to his wholeness as the things he gives to me.
