Hello! I am Cindy McCrory is the owner and primary photographer of Blue Room Photography.  The studio follows a systematic system and incorporates three teams of professionals to insure a great customer experience!

ELECTRONIC TEAM:
  • Studio appointments are booked online by the studio team or online by you
  • You will receive confirmation and reminder emails or texts regarding your session
  • Contracts are signed online
  • Invoices are sent via email
  • Payments may be made online with any credit/debit cards or you may write a check
  • For wedding and event photography, I build a photography timeline and text it to you. 

BLUE ROOM'S EDITING AND DESIGN TEAM
  • Blue Room's professional editing panel selects the best images and edits them in Blue Room's signature true-to-life style, or to the style you request
  • Your online gallery is carefully curated; a password to the gallery will be granted upon request
  • You will be given a special link to your favorites gallery where you "heart" your favorite images.  These are the images we use to build an album, or send your images to you if that is part of your package
  • Our editing teams select the best images and edit to the style you request (or our standard Blue Room style)
  • For wedding clients, our professional album designer creates the first draft of your album or photo book
  • Your draft is online in a magazine flip-book style, and the final version is available indefinitely
  • Working with your album changes/deletions, I make the final changes to bring it to the final, awesome version
  • You may order photos through the shopping cart on the website or directly through the studio.  Prints are sent to the studio or drop-shipped if that is what you prefer

BLUE ROOM'S PHOTOGRAPHY TEAM
  • Our photography team currently has three professional wedding and special event photographers. Cindy McCrory is the primary headshot photographer.  All have exceptional talent and at least ten years or more of wedding, special event, and portrait experience.  Blue Room does not use our bookings as training grounds for newbies.

WEDDING NOTES

I love flowers, beautiful manners, gorgeous dresses, wonderfully "done" hair, makeup, cake, and lovely spaces!  Weddings include ALL of those things and I am in heaven when I am spending the day with a bride and groom at a decorated venue with their family and friends.  My professional work includes a history of all kinds of photography: architecture, news, children, fashion.... and weddings require photography expertise in all of these things.  In my super young years I was a film model and also did pageants (it was the thing back in the day), so I know what it is like to be on your side of the camera.  I try my best to gently make my couples comfortable and relaxed,  and at the same time confidently guide and direct members of the wedding party and family through the photography timeline.  It is always exhilerating, and I can't wait to get back to the studio and take a peek at what I've captured! ​
My natural editing style is photojournalistic realism but with rich color and a bit of glamour. I have the editing skills to give you an edgy black and white, a vintage kodachrome 50's retro look, or the "light and airy"  look some brides prefer.  I find life much more interesting meeting lots of different people and we all have our own "filters".  So offering a diverse choice of looks from which you can choose, is always more interesting for us all!   Look through my photographs on this site and you'll see the diversity of styles I can offer.  ​
THE STUDIO STORY
Picture
The afternoon that a long awaited box arrived from Canon with my first PRO LEVEL CAMERA,  I was so excited that I tore into the box and began walking around the neighborhood taking photos.  I returned at dusk and all of the lights in my house were on, including the bedroom I was using as my editing room.   The room's walls are a Martha Stewart color named named "Milk Paint" from Sherwin Williams.  I also had small blue-ish halogen desk lights turned on.  All of the windows in my house were glowing with the GE golden light except for the one window belonging to the office. The light coming from that window was SO BLUE. Quite honestly, it looked terrible from the street because it was so different from the other windows.  BUT it ultimately served a purpose! I had been struggling with a name for my business, and although most people use their own name for their photography business, my business class at USA recommended using a third party name in case you want to ever sell the business or have children take it over at some point.  So after seeing the blue room window, I lamely named my photography business BLUE ROOM PHOTOGRAPHY.

Established in 2010.
I turned my photography habit (addiction) into a full time business in 2010 after shooting film since the 70's.  I shoot weddings and commercial photography on location, and headshots and portraits in the studio and studio courtyard.  Family portraits are in multiple locations: bluff of Mobile Bay, beach at the gulf, my studio courtyard, and in family homes.
