Cydney was born and raised in Santa Monica, California. She received her BA in Photography from Bard College, where she was mentored by Stephen Shore. Cydney has been working on an ongoing project exploring lesser-known islands. This adventure has taken her to such exotic locales as the Southern Finnish Archipelago (home to the Islands Korpo, Utö, Jurmo, Nagu, and thousands more), Olkhon Island in Siberia, and the autonomous Faroe Islands of Denmark.
When she isn’t ‘Island -ing’, she’s taking self portraits in her kitchen, shooting behind the scenes for music videos, photographing Sake still life’s, well dressed interiors, or shooting for Italian Magazines like D. La Reppublica.
Her work has been featured in the New York Times Sunday Magazine, AINT - BAD, PHMuseum, Smack Mellon, NYLON, Robert Berman Gallery, etc.
Cydney is based in Los Angeles.
