Cindy was comissioned to do a painting after my sweet Yorkiepoo passed this December 2025. The final product was MORE than I could have expected!!! She is super talented and was able to catch very small details which really made the painting seem so very lifelike! Cindy is a professional and my experience was very pleasureable! Thanks!

Cindy is absolutely fabulous, she gave me a gift that I can forever carry with me whenever I go. She made me a tumbler with my recently departed best friend Tilly. It came out so beautiful and I couldn’t be more blessed being given the opportunity to have one of her art pieces! If you want a remembrance painting/tumbler of your past fur babies I highly recommend Cindy. Her pet portraits are gorgeous!

 Cindy is a really talented photographer. She did my maternity photo shoot, and most recently, she took a picture of my daughter and our 2 pitbulls, and I ADORE the picture!! She really captivated the personality of all of them and their great relationship. It’s a very special keepsake for me, for when our pets are no longer with us, I’m very glad to have this portrait done. If you want any pictures done right, call Cindy, don’t think about it!! She is very talented and a very nice person with a positive attitude and a passion for photography. Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.

I met Cindy last fall at a fundraiser for the new no-kill shelter in Troutman and was very impressed with her portraits on display in her booth. They were so amazing in that the subjects literally looked like they could walk out of the frame. I had lost one of my two best friends, Lucky, in April last year, and I wanted a permanent remembrance of that very special friend (calling him a dog just doesn't sound right). I commissioned Cindy to paint a portrait of Lucky, as well as my remaining best friend, Holly. When I viewed the portrait, it brought tears to my eyes, as Lucky looked so "alive". To say I am most pleased with Cindy's very professional work is a huge understatement!! The real pleasure is Cindy is such a kind, wonderful, and beautiful lady. I highly recommend Cindy for those who want the best portrait for your furry friends or special people.

I would like to thank C. Canty Studios for the most beautiful and unique portrait of my husband and I. It has been such a pleasure working with you and we cannot thank you enough or be pleased enough with our one of a kind portrait. We have met Cindy, the owner of C. Canty Studios, at one of the Charlotte Seen Fashion Pre-Show showcase days and after seeing her incredible work, have entered into a raffle for a portrait. The next morning we woke up to us being the winners of the raffle as announced on social media. Shortly after we were contacted by Cindy, were sent a very professional information package, scheduled a photo shoot date, and were advised on clothing styling options . Upon the arrival at the photo shoot, Cindy already had everything prepared and we were ready to shoot. It was very easy to work with her as a photographer as she was always giving posing ideas and how to stand, as well as trying some poses we would come up with. After the photoshoot, we sat down with Cindy while she pulled up our photos on a big screen and we picked out the photo to be used for the portrait. While the portrait was being made, we were updated on the progress, and when it was done, it was personally delivered to us. Me and my husband are both grateful for such an opportunity which has resulted in a unique piece of art and working with a professional. We would definitely recommend C. Canty Studios to those who are looking for a special gift, a memory to be kept forever and the uniqueness of Cindy's work. Thank you Cindy!!

 Cindy hired me to participate in a promotional shoot for the relaunch of her fine art photography business, C. Canty Studios. Cindy is an exceptional photographer to work with. She gave clear instructions of what she wanted, provided a talented makeup artist and a convenient, spacious location with privacy and plenty of room for all the models to prep in before shooting. Upon my arrival, Cindy had prepped all the necessary legal documentation/payments in full, including an emailed copy of the release to review before the shoot. I look forward to working with Cindy again, and I highly recommend her to those considering her for hire; you won't be disappointed

Cindy did a phenomenal job of providing extraordinary artwork for our dental practice. Patients always comment on how the great artwork puts them at ease. She has helped me on projects outside the office and is quite the professional!

I received an immaculate portrait that far exceeded my expectations! She was very kind and patient and brought my vision to life. I will definitely be using C. Canty Studios for future fine art portraits.
