Cindy fell in love with photography when her uncle gave her her first camera at age 9. It was a Kodak Brownie film camera – so you can tell it was awhile ago. When she reached high school, she worked painting houses all summer to earn enough money to purchase her first professional camera. The times and technology have changed a lot since then.

After spending years in photography, she followed her other dream: to have her own business. Back then, it was a retail shop – which she and her partner ran for over ten years. Then came the eCommerce revolution. One thing she realized when she transitioned from bricks and mortar to selling online is the importance of a good quality photograph to sell your product.

She also knows how challenging it can be to get a great product shot. The cameras today are designed to give stellar photographs under most conditions. However product photography is challenging and requires additional skills and techniques to get the best image from your camera.

She is currently a multi-channel seller (eBay, Amazon, Bonanza & occasionally Etsy). She is one of 30 people worldwide that has been certified by eBay as a Business Consultant. Cindy is also the author of Easy Auction Photography and Co-author of The eBay Marketing Bible.
