SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHY
Hello!
My name is Cindy Nowlin I am a photographer, based in East Tennesse. For five years I photographed all sports at Maryville College. I truly enjoyed that experience and the amazing athletes. During my time there, I was able to photograph not only all the action, sportraits and headshots. But my photos were also used in various media photos, social media posting, photos for the posters and various programs. I also worked for a few sports guys and shot middle school and high school sports.
My photography style has always been natural, in the moment, looking for the action. I look for the human element and reaction within the game. I love the fast pace, blood, sweat, tears and the victory!
While I am no longer photographing sports, I wanted to share my photos from those days. This website is a work in progress and all the photos should be up soon. So please come back.

If you want to view and purchase photos from the TN Agility Competition at Ispy in Maryville, TN April 26-27, 2025, please feel free to contact me.
A trophy carries dust. Memories last forever.
