So Fricken Glad You're Here

Not your average photographer here.

​

Up for anything! I’m willing to get knee-deep in a river or risk some grass stains for that perfect shot. By the end of our time together, you might just find yourself stuck with a new friend.  I love a good inspirational idea for a location or fun activity to document for you. 

​

I am here for the memories and capturing the moments with feelings.

Hey it's me Chelsie

I truly believe NOTHING is by ACCIDENT!

​

If you are here it's because we were supposed to cross paths at some point... maybe even google thought so! 

​

Photography came into my life in a not so traditional way, I was pretty non chalant about it from the start when I took a photo with a disposable camera and my grandma snuck it into a competition which I won for my age category! I think it was $5 I thought it was just lucky... The universe nudged me a few more times but you can read or watch my video by clicking below.

Bride with Bridesmaids
"Chelsie has been our go to gal for years now. She’s seen us through weddings, large family group photos and a couple babies. Not only are her photos beautiful, but she’s super fun to work with, makes you feel comfortable, a great communicator, and chooses some beautiful locations. We are so happy with our photos and will continue to have her capture our family and friends for years to come."

I am in your corner every step of the way. Whether it is for your wedding or your annual family photos. 

​

I have two wild boys myself so no amount of chaos will surprise me. I am here for it!

​

I want you to be YOU! and do the things that drive YOU and make YOU happy.

 

In a world where everything seems to be compared so quickly on social media and we are all over stimulated by the things we should or shouldn't do. I am here to help you and capture you and your family exactly where you are in this moment. ​

​

My job here is to tell your story for you to share with family, friends and generations to come. 

Believe it or not... getting your photo taken can be fun!
Hire Me! I'm FUN!

I hear it ALL the time. "I am awkward in photos" ..."I am really uncomfortable getting my picture taken" 

​

You are preaching to the Choir here! That is why it is important to me that you feel comfortable. It is more about the memories than the perfect poses...But don't worry we will get those too.  I want you to feel like you so I get to capture YOU. 

​

As for weddings let me take the stress of the timeline and make sure you are where you need to be. I meet with you a couple times during your planning process and we go over your day and make sure that everything is going to run smoothly and I can focus on the moments and the pieces most important to you. So you can enjoy the day and be in the moment.
