Hi, I’m Cecilia Benitez – the photographer behind Cheerful Moments Photography. Based in Mission, BC, I’ve spent 9+ years photographing newborns, expecting mothers, and families throughout the Fraser Valley, including Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, and Chilliwack. Photography, for me, is about more than images – it’s about preserving moments that matter. I believe the most powerful photographs are the ones that feel real, timeless, and full of emotion, whether it’s a quiet glance, a burst of laughter, or a once-in-a-lifetime milestone. My studio is located on a working farm property in Mission, giving clients a relaxed, private setting with plenty of open parking – no hunting for street parking or squeezing into a tight studio lot. I want every session, whether it’s your baby’s first days or your family’s yearly portraits, to feel unhurried and genuinely enjoyable.
