About Cindy · 关于

Photographer, author, and the person behind AURLOA.

Photographer · Author · Creator of AURLOA · California

She meets life head-on — she has jumped from planes and dived beneath the sea. The tiger is her favorite animal; the eagle, the one she loves most. Both — and the real places and creatures she has photographed across 24 countries — are becoming characters and worlds inside her AURLOA anime.

Every photograph on this site is an original, straight from her camera — no retouching, no filters. What you see is exactly what she saw.

Her animals — where the anime was born

Every animal and every signature scene in the AURLOA universe comes from her real photography. The tiger is her emblem of courage — the strength to face fear eye to eye; the eagle, her emblem of freedom.

She meets life head-on

Not a photographer's frame, but her own leap — Cindy in free fall, jumping from a plane. She lives the courage her stories are made of.
