..shakers, movers, & weirdos. What sets your heart on fire? Intimacy. It's in everything we do. Years fleeting when your baby lays their head on your chest, dad encompassing tiny hands, tiny hands in moms hair, how your children fit perfectly to you..
..resting your head on your partner; so many worries go away, spine tingles when they hold your hand, how you communicate without ever speaking aloud. All of that sets my soul on fire too, friend.
I'm a family & heart-led photographer servicing West Tennessee & beyond. I specialize in family, maternity, & elopements. But am always itching for anything creative! I love collaborating with my people. I am also a mother & wife; I love strong coffee & big talk. I have an obnoxious laugh, & a questionable sense of humor. I will never turn down a thrift date, I will probably show up in crocs & in black.
Adventurous or calm & quiet? We have a big canvas & you are art. Each family session, is family & heart-led.
Love. I love it. Finding your person is indescribable. Your love story through the perspective of another person.
CONGRATULATIONS!
Lets make it a badass time! My goal is to provide you with photos to remind you how your day felt. & have your back.
Hey, look how far we made it!
I'm so excited to work with you! I know inviting someone into your bubble, or letting go, isn't easy. But it will be worth it. You've heard it enough but i'll rephrase. I want you to look back on your photos & cry. Yeah, foreal. But the good kind, the "damn... look at us, look at all this love! Look how far we've come..." If you're ready for that...
..there is a couple of different ways to reach out to me to book. You can fill out the Contact Form below, or hope over whichever social media app you like most (mine are connected at the bottom) & message me.
We will discuss dates, times, creative ideas, styling, location.. & probably become friends! Not kidding, I love my clients.
Every session, except elopements (for obvious reasons), will have access to my client closet. Meaning we will discuss styling you from pieces in my client closet or possibly your own closet. This help eliminate the "I don't know what to wear" & helps to keep my work consistent.
Additionally we can schedule a prior date for you & your family to try on pieces to confirm the fit, if we need to. I do try to have a range of sizes or buy clothing that can fit a range of sizes.
Styling is important, but it isn't everything. We'll talk about your vision for the session. Whats the vibe? I'll get to know you & your family/partner, while you get to know me. Breaking down walls, for both of us. You are apart of creative experience. I know it's an investment, but the value is priceless.
"Chelsey is amazing both behind the camera and in person. She laughed with us and made us feel so comfortable. She got all the shots I requested plus her own and I was more than tickled with the outcome. She is easy to work with and her skills are superior! Chelsey will definitely be doing my wedding and future family photos."
Wonderful love story over on my Insta.
"Chelsey’s talent with film is incredible! The patience she has is top notch. Our pictures were scheduled for the sunrise (6 am) & my kids obviously were groggy, but she worked her magic for the best pictures a mom could have with her kids. Chelsey made me feel like a gypsy and didn’t over edit the pictures, it’s truly how she saw us. If I could give 7 out of 7 stars, I truly would! Will definitely be booking again! Thank you again Chelsey for capturing the sunrise with my kids and I."
Chelsey went above and beyond for my session! She is the BEST and I highly recommend her for anything you or your family needs! She is awesome! She is so easy to work with, and she has the best personality!! She is a rockstar at photography! Her work could go on a wall in Nashville… it’s THATTTT good!
Gosh, this couple & these cars..chefs kiss.
Highly recommend Chelsey! She made the experience so worth it. She has the eye for design and her imagination is endless. She loves kids and worked so well with them! Even when my 18 month old wanted to play in the water more than take pictures. She captured the most amazing memories. Meeting her for this session, she made it feel like we have known each other our whole lives. I will be a repeat customer for sure!! Her creativity and photography skills are out of this world!!! LOVE HER!
