Cindy Westerlund

I am an Equine and Pet photographer located in Pittsburgh, PA. Growing up, I have always held photographs close to my heart. From getting my film developed until now in the digital world, I will never get tired of capturing moments that should be remembered for years to come. I started DSLR photography in 2011 and photographed a wide variety of genres, from newborns to weddings and everything in between. In 2015 I took things to a professional level and today I concentrate on pets and equine (both domestic and wild). For the last several years, I have been learning, growing and following my creative dream as a photographer. I'm kind of city, but kind of country. Sometimes a homebody, but I also love to travel and go on adventures with my husband. My two pups also keep me quite busy and there is nothing like a good puppy snuggle to end the day. I am also a horse lover and advocate for America's Wild Horses. A quote by Martin Buber says, "An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language." As an animal lover myself, I know the connection that can be made with an animal. It is an incredible feeling and in my case I have grown personally from my connections with certain animals in my life. I want that to be shown through my photography.
