MEET CHELSEY
It’s all in the connection
Life goes fast. But your effortless photo session gives you a second to simply be together as a family. (And get gorgeous photos + art for your home while you’re at it.)
ALL ABOUT THOSE
PHONE DOWN MOMENTS
Know what I mean? When you’ve signed off for the day, closed the work email, and just get to be with your family.
I’m not out here pretending I don’t need a sec to zone out scrolling social media (I love a good meme as much as the next mom). But you and I both know how important it is to spend intentional time with our families.
And because I understand that, I’ve created a Virginia Beach photography experience that relieves the stress so you can just enjoy this time with your family and decorate your home with heirloom art that means something.
“Chelsey’s ability to connect was remarkable. Her talent for capturing precious moments is truly unparalleled.”

FAMILY
I’m Mom to 3 amazing kiddos!
My twins were just 16 months old when we welcomed our third baby, so YEP, I know what absolutely chaos and fun those early years are. I LOVE photographing young kids to be reminded of just how much joy there is in those seasons!
My early years of being an overwhelmed Mom to 3 have led me to supreme levels of chill on newborn photo day especially- nothing can shake me after having that many babies and toddlers crying all at once, haha!
01
faith
I'm a believer and disciple of Jesus Christ!
I have been blessed by God to grow this business, and to do what I love for His glory!
Serving families with my photography and art has given me a way to glorify God by using the talents and skills he has given me, and I feel truly honored for every single family that chooses me as their photographer!

PASSION
Photography became my creative outlet during the pandemic, and I was positive I wanted to document weddings until I realized how happy it made me capturing the personality & connection in families.
Now, as a newborn and family photographer, I get to photograph past brides & grooms with their tiny little babies, and capture all their milestones are they grow up! Seeing their journey full circle is such a blessing!

connection
I think I learned this from my Dad, who could hold a conversation with a brick wall! My hidden talent is that I can connect with anyone, no matter who the person is! Kids, Dads, Grandmoms - everyone! I love meeting new people and making others laugh, so people tend to feel really comfortable being photographed by me.

in front of the camera..."
"I was amazed at how comfortable the kids were in front of the camera. Chelsey was so warm and welcoming and made all of us feel at ease."

Aww, reading stuff like that from my families makes my heart feel so full. I always make sure our session is laidback and child-led, making space for all families to feel seen and heard.
LET’S WORK TOGETHER
