Meet your Photographer
Hi! I’m Cynthia Bullard, the owner and photographer at Cynthia Bullard Photography. I’m a Wife, Mom, New Grandma, Dog Mom, and Sports Mom!
Based in Ventura County, California, I’ve had the pleasure of helping families capture generational images for more than 30 years (I know, I don’t look that old right?!) I started in photography shortly after high school when I signed up for a black-and-white film class at Ventura College. As soon as I picked up my manual Pentax camera, loaded the film, and started taking images, I was hooked!
My love for photography began long before I ever picked up a camera. As a little girl, I would sit on the floor at my grandmother’s house, completely absorbed in albums filled with old photographs. Years later, my world changed forever when my mother was killed in a car accident at just 38 years old. I was only 14. In the quiet that followed, I realized how few photographs we had of my mother as an adult. That loss is what fuels my mission to ensure your family’s story is preserved in beautifully printed images—meant to be cherished, displayed, and lived with, not forgotten on a phone. Because one day, without warning, photographs stop being “just pictures”.
You will never truly know how important those photographs are until they are all you have left.
Let’s create photographs that will hang on your walls for generations to come.
