I love to capture your family's favorite everyday moments and what makes your family so special to you.
Mama, it's your turn to have your moments with your littles documented!
My sessions are fun, relaxed, personable, and patient!
It is always my goal to create fun, lasting, stress-free memories during our shoot. Nervous that your little might be fussy? Not sure how to pose? Swaddle?
What to wear? What to prepare?
I do it ALL for you!
With my unique background in early childhood special education, I know how to interact with little ones and capture those smiles.
I'm excited to run, laugh, and get a little whacky with you and your kids!

Creating a stress-free experience for your family, and capturing mama with her littles
Working with Chelsea was so easy, from start to finish. Before our session Chelsea provided an extremely helpful "Welcome Guide" that provided guidance on what to expect, outfit recommendations, choosing color palettes. etc. which really helped me prepare (and then prepare my husband!). And then from the moment Chelsea walked into our home, she was extremely professional, warm, welcoming, and patient. My newborn was pretty fussy the entire time and she was SO incredible with him...she truly is a baby whisperer and I'm still amazed that she was able to capture so many beautiful photos of our family. She is also extremely responsive and I was shocked how quickly she delivered our picture gallery. We are beyond thrilled with how everything came out and couldn't recommend working with Chelsea more!
Chelsea was great! She made the photoshoot enjoyable and comfortable, getting so many great shots!
Chelsea has a bubbly personality and genuinely gets to know her clients, making it feel as if we’ve known her for years!
I also really liked having that 1:1 communication with Chelsea either by e-mail or text, to help me in my search for an outfit for myself and something for my youngest. She shared a few brands to consider, but also tagged me in a few items that would pop up on her Instagram that she thought I would like/should look into (I did not receive this level of support from another family session we had, so it was such a delight and huge weight lifted off my shoulders getting all of these little tips.
Everything about our session with Chelsea was perfect. Our postpartum period was particularly stressful, as we weren't living in our home. Chelsea was able to make my vision come to life, and was so easy-going and accommodating. Everything felt easy. What was particularly helpful was how great she was with our 3-year-old, and didn't make us feel rushed or uncomfortable when the baby wasn't cooperating.
Our session was very relaxed and laid back and I really appreciated that. As a first time mom, I didn’t know what to expect from our session, let alone not knowing what to expect from my newborn day-to-day yet! But you were able to keep me calm and handle whatever the session threw at us. What stood out to me was how calm and natural you were with my baby and I even learned some baby tricks from you which was an awesome bonus!
Our session with Chelsea was a dream! Getting everything prepared and just right for the newborn shoot can be stressful but from the moment she came into our home it was like a big sigh of relief. My toddler daughter instantly felt comfortable in her presence and she got right to work taking beautiful shots of her in the nursery and capturing her true personality. Chelsea seamlessly transitioned to our family shots and was somehow able to capture the perfect pictures of our little family, even with a fiery toddler. We all felt extremely comfortable during the session and are absolutely smitten over the photos she captured!
As a teacher, she is also incredible with children of all ages; her calm, nurturing energy and patience are just part of what makes her an amazing photographer. We have used her for engagement, newborn, family, and most recently another maternity/family photo session; we are always blown away with our gallery and so happy to have these moments frozen in time!
