We're so glad we found Chelsea!

We are so very blessed to have been recommended Chelsea by our coordinators. Her talent shines through her photos each and every time. Her kindness, and ability to work though unpredictable circumstances is why we appreciate her work so much more! Chelsea worked with us through the challenges of rescheduling our wedding due to Covid-19. On what was possibly one of the stormiest wedding days of all time, Chelsea's dedication to still capture genuine moments throughout our day will forever be appreciated as we look back on our wedding album for years to come!

Amazing work!

Chelsea was super easy to work with and such a sweet person! She was very responsive when emailing & texting. She even showed up early on the day of our wedding which gave us time to relax and take extra shots that weren’t on the itinerary. I’m am beyond satisfied with how the photos came out. We even got a sneak peak the morning after the wedding, which we were super pumped about. She got everything we asked for and more. I highly recommend Chelsea!

Chelsea was phenomenal! She literally ever sat down the entire day. She understood what we were going for, asked all the right questions, and the end product was beautiful. I highly recommend her!

Chelsea was warm and easy to work with. We had such a good time and she's not just a gifted photographer but a wonderful person as well.
Her mannerisms make even the most camera shy quite comfortable

We shot on location in an amazing oasis of nature in a big city. She captured such lovely moments and each photo is natural and relaxed. None of the poses felt posed.
Her natural talent and artistry shine through effortlessly.

The beautiful gallery she gave us is something we will forever treasure.

Chelsea was amazing! We couldn't believe how beautiful the photos came out. She even captured all the "little things" that we would never have thought of. Definitely would recommend her services!

We had a small, intimate wedding in Philadelphia that we planned from our home in Colorado - we didn't even get to meet Chelsea until the wedding day, and we hashed out all of the details over email. Chelsea was absolutely WONDERFUL! She was able to accommodate our smaller event (our reception was basically a fancy dinner party, so we didn't need 8-10 hours of photography), and was a total professional at every step. I don't love having photos taken of myself, but Chelsea made it fun and comfortable - a pretty amazing feat! We were thrilled with the photos, and loved having Chelsea there with us on our wedding day.

Chelsea did our 2nd Anniversary photoshoot, and we are in love with her work! She has a great sense of capturing personality and genuine interaction in her photos. I really loved the documentary vibe of our session; Chelsea helped choose an outdoor shopping setting, so we were able to walk around and "do something". Because she made us feel SO comfortable during our session, her images really capture who we are and how we actually relate to each other. She gave us great direction, and her easy-going personality made the entire session feel natural, as though we were on a casual date.

Chelsea's images made me feel so confident! We will treasure these anniversary photos for years to come. We will definitely be booking another session with her in the future!

We had a terrific experience working with Chelsea that resulted in beautiful, memorable pictures. We wanted some pictures of our 2-year-old son with his babysitter before she moved; Chelsea took the time to meet with both my son and his sitter before the photo session to establish rapport. She is WONDERFUL with children and coaxed some great expressions from our son. Our sitter also commented on what a positive experience the shoot was. Thank you Chelsea!

I'm always worried that photographers will think it's silly when I book a shoot for my dog & me. However, Chelsea was extremely flexible and appreciative of what our little family looks like. She was very comfortable with Muppet (my dog), and was able to capture both of our personalities in her photos. Chelsea genuinely seems to care about her clients and their unique stories. Her attention to detail, and her ability to really connect with my family is evident in our pictures. Chelsea's work is extremely high quality, and she offers it at a competitive rate. Additionally, she is interested in capturing REAL images of your family. None of our photos look posed or super cheesy- instead, they look authentic and fun. Chelsea's friendliness is really what made the biggest difference. She treats you like her friend-- not just another anonymous client. It feels more like hanging out than a tense, stifled photo shoot.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
