Born in Wuhan, China, Ciel Cheng is a Toronto-based photographer who specializes in portraiture and food with a natural, authentic feel.

Ciel fell in love with art as a little kid and moved to Winnipeg to become a film student at the age of 18. After graduating from the University of Manitoba, her first job was as a social media photographer, and her love of photography grew.

Taking it to the next level, Ciel began studying photography at Humber College in 2021 and won the Creative Photography scholarship two years in a row. Her photographic style focuses on minute details and subtle emotions, caught in both studios and on location. When Ciel works with her subjects, she makes them feel comfortable and part of the process.

Ciel also loves capturing precious moments of her own life, including good food and music.
