Meet Cindy Noland
I grew up in rural Western Pennsylvania loving nature, animals and
the outdoors. I inherited my artistic abilities from my mother and
combine the two interests in my work. I have been drawing as long
as I can remember and got my first camera as a teenager. My main
subjects for artwork and photography are of course, dogs and other
animals and also nature and scenery. I am a self taught artist and
photographer and have done artwork and photography for many
private individuals and have sold my images to magazines and
calendar companies. I strive to capture each animal’s unique
personality in it’s portrait, and a detailed head study that focuses on
expression is my favorite work of art.
Of my many hobbies I found the one I never tired of was
photography. Put a camera between me and a dog and I am in
heaven. I especially enjoy the challenge of capturing exciting action
shots of dogs enjoying themselves, so shooting agility and
schutzhund trials was a natural choice for me. Being an exhibitor in
the sports as well, I can bring this knowledge to my trial
photography along with my technical abilities. I am just as thrilled
seeing a great shot as the owners of the dogs are. If you are looking
for something in particular, different or specific please let me know
and I will do my best to capture it.

I still reside in western Pennsylvania and I am available to do photo
shoots and trials in this and other areas. I use the Canon 1D Mark 3
digital SLR camera with top quality Canon lenses.  My set up at the
trials includes computers, large monitors for viewing images within
minutes of the class ending, and proof books with contact pages of
all the images of the trial. I also bring books of previous trials for
exhibitors to peruse. Images are also available for viewing on my
website. I usually get a trial's images posted by the following
Wednesday, and keep past trials online for two years.
Please contact me if you would like me to cover an event or do a
portrait sitting.   Thank you, and I hope you enjoy your photos as
much as I enjoy creating them!
