I'm a maine-grown dog mom of two who is conveniently married to my second shooter, Ben! Some of my favorite things include dogs, tacos, buffalo chicken anything.. or really just food, working out, being mentally unwell while listening to Noah Kahan, and photographing everything.
This means that above all else, I will provide you with communication that results in a plan for your session, and likely a back up plan too. I love a good sunny day, but appreciate overcast skies as well, and will know exactly when and where to shoot that results in the best experience and images for you.
Chelsea is our family's go-to photographer, no matter what. Her personality, kindness, patience, and ability to make any and every session comfortable is what makes her stand out from the rest. She is flexible, responsive, and always offers her ideas while ensuring our wants/needs are fulfilled. She has captured numerous family photos, senior portraits, and couples photos for our kids, and every single photo is gorgeous, unique, and timeless. We will recommend Chelsea to anyone and you won't regret booking with her!
42k is the number of dollars I've raised for various families in need and non-profits through my yearly minis for a cause
Number of stanley cups I have... it's an addiction, i'm not afraid to admit it.
Number of tattoos I have and counting!
Number of years of experience I have capturing memories with my camera.
Number of dogs I own! I have two yellow labs named Porter and Murphy - I'll likely talk about them even if you don't ask.
When I was a senior I booked my photos with the most popular photographer for seniors at the time. The only thing I remember from my session was how awkward I felt, how the photographers talked about themselves the entire time, and how uncomfortable and unorganized the entire experience was. As the senior, I didn't feel listened to. I felt like they only cared to upsell to my parents.
That didn't sit right with me.
So when I began photographing seniors, I wanted different. For them, for me, for their parents. I wanted to provide an experience that left them buzzing with energy, left them feeling confident and in love with what we captured. My why revolves around the clients I serve, the people in front of my camera, my why revolves around you.
