You’re not here for basic receipts. You want someone who catches the breath before the kiss and the tremble before the yes.
I turn your in-between moments into the kind of legacy your grandkids will frame like art.
You want photographs your grandkids will fight over.
You want in-between moments.
You feel things deeply.
YOUR WEDDING IS NOT A PHOTOSHOOT. IT'S YOUR LEGACY.
You're my couple if...
PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE REBELS. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE MISFITS. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE BRAVE. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE TRAILBLAZERS. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE WEIRDOS. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE CINEMATIC. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE ECCENTRIC. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE OUTSIDERS. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE UNORTHODOX. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE CURIOUS. PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE NONCONFORMING.
The PORTFOLIO
I’ve spent years documenting love in its most honest, unfiltered form and I still get emotional every single time. My couples don’t hire me for perfect poses. They hire me because I notice the tremble in his hand before he sees you, the laugh you only make when you feel safe, the tiny moments most people miss. I mix strategy with intuition and a little chaos so your photos feel alive and cinematic instead of staged. If you want your love told the way it actually felt, I’m your girl.
I’m obsessed with how people love each other. Not the curated version. The real stuff.
Hey lovebirds,
I'm Chelsea!
BEHIND the LENS
— Arianna Carlson
From start to finish it was purely magical. For someone who hates having her picture taken, Chelsea has a way of making you instantly feel comfortable and almost forget you have a camera pointed at you. She has an eye for extraordinary moments and will go to great lengths to get the perfect shot. Her easygoing, playful personality is unquestionably one of my favorite things about her. And then you add her talent and she’s unstoppable. There is no one else I would’ve considered to capture the most intimate and special moment in our lives. In fact, we flew Chelsea to California from Texas to be our wedding photographer.

“MADE ALL OF MY DREAMS COME TRUE. We are in awe of how our wedding photos turned out. They are perfect in every way. I showed Chelsea what I was wanting and she delivered photos better than I ever could have imagined. She’s kind, accommodating, and so fun to work with. Truly the best experience ever.”
"They are perfect in every way…
Chelsea made all my dreams come true."

Chelsea and her team are the absolute BEST. My wedding photos are detailed, elegant, beautiful, and stunning. From our first phone call, I immediately gravitated toward her upbeat, happy, and genuine personality.
She made sure to capture every single moment and truly went out of her way for us. Chelsea has a way of making you feel so comfortable it feels like you’re hanging out with your best friend. And our photo reveal? I felt like I was reliving the entire night. I just can’t thank her enough.
“She truly went out of her way for us… I felt like I was reliving the entire night.”

“Chelsea is an exceptional photographer and the photos she creates are not just images, they are stories. She captures emotion with sensitivity, joy, tenderness, humor, and depth. She notices things no one else does.
Her portraits of my children are my most precious possessions. I cherish the images she created of my daughter twirling in the grass after sunset. I’ve never known a photographer more observant, intuitive, or kind.”
“Her images are my most precious possessions.”
— Steph Shimkus
One thing that struck me immediately was how professional the entire experience was. From the initial call to the day we received our photos, Chelsea’s process is smooth, thoughtful, and intentional.
On shoot day, she sees textures and colors you don’t even notice. If you trust her process, the final product will blow your mind. You won’t be sorry.
“She sees textures and colors you don’t even notice… and the final product will blow your mind.”
— Kendall Klein
I have been the classic “always a bridesmaid, never a bride,” and all that experience has led me to this: Chelsea is THE BEST I’ve ever worked with. She is fun, lively, and respects your vision. I wanted a few posed photos and mostly candid moments and she absolutely delivered. I will recommend her again and again.
“I have been in countless weddings… Chelsea is THE BEST I’ve ever worked with.”
— Carolina G
Love love love Chelsea. If I could give her 10 stars, I would. She exceeded every expectation. She wasn’t just my photographer... anything I needed, she jumped in with a helping hand. I wanted candid-style wedding photos and they came out perfect. She’s so sweet and you will regret not hiring her.
“She was more than my photographer…
she was everything I needed that day.”
