So glad we found her!

CHELSEY WAS AMAZING!!!!! There are pictures we didn't even know she took that WE LOVE!!
She was early for the day and was willing to stay if we weren't done celebrating! She made everyone feel so comfortable (including the shy children) and at ease which allowed for gorgeous and organic photos.
She was so easy to communicate with in the planning process and even followed up with us after our day! Pictures were edited beautifully and quickly!

Chelsey was wonderful, very helpful, relaxed, and professional.

Chelsey was relaxed and helpful throughout the whole process. She put us a ease and captured so many lovely moments. I wanted a documentary style and she delivered. The photos are so beautiful and I recommend her wholeheartedly.

The best ever.

The best ever.

I spent two weeks looking for a photographer for our wedding. When I saw Chelsey’s work, I knew instantly it was exactly what we had been looking for, moody and romantic. The fact that Chelsey was extremely easy to get ahold of and her personality was super chill and easy going was just the cherry on top for us. When we first arrived at our engagement shoot my fiance and I were both nervous because we didn’t know what to expect but Chelsey made it all so easy. She gently guided us into different positions and had us do some fun and unexpected poses that I would have never thought of and they turned out to be some of my favorites. When I mentioned an idea I would like to do, she was so enthusiastic about it and made it come to life exactly how I dreamed it would. We laughed the whole time, made jokes, and truly felt like one of our best friends was on the other side of the camera and we had just met her that same day. My fiance and I agreed that our engagement shoot was one of the funnest experiences that we had been able to do together and we wanted to do it again. I owe all of that to Chelsey.

Flash forward two-ish weeks… Yes, you read that right, TWO WEEKS!! Incredible turnaround time in the photo world, we received our digital copies. I am not an emotional person but when I got our pictures back tears filled my eyes because they were exactly what I wanted and they captured the love and happiness between my fiance and I that I know someone else may not have been able to. Once I posted the pictures, I had friends that had used the same loved photographer for years reaching out to me to know who I used because they were ready to make the switch to Chelsey for all of their future photoshoots.

Due to a date conflict that neither Chelsey or I could take responsibility for, Chelsey was not able to shoot our actual wedding day, something I’m still grieving about. However, in true Chelsey fashion she “gifted” us more (like way more) than the normal amount of engagement photos that we were expected to receive, which again brought tears to my eyes. The generosity and kindness that Chelsey showed us is something we will never forget. People, stop looking. Stop wasting your time. I promise, you will not find better quality, personality, and character. We can’t say thank you enough to Chelsey. ♥️
