“Chelsea did a wedding day after photoshoot for my husband and I and we just loved her and the quality of her work. I wanted some timeless photos of us shot with film. She was patient with us the day of the photoshoot and had a wonderful energy about her. She really helped us accomplish exactly what we had envisioned. When we received the photos, we were blown away. She had provided them to us digitally and gave us prints. She put them together in a beautiful package for us! We cannot recommend her enough. We wish we could the photoshoot with her all over again, it was so fun!”

What People are Saying

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Chelsea. She’s the kind of person that puts you at ease, and she gives plenty of direction so you don’t feel uncomfortable in front of the camera. Our session felt very natural, and she caught some candid shots of us interacting that ended up being some of my favorite photos. I’ll treasure these pictures for years to come!
