The Celebrating Motherhood Event

A luxurious, joyful
photography experience
celebrating mothers & their minis,
hosted by Virginia Beach family photographer, Chelsey Kraus.
- When your significant other finally does snap those photos of you, you cringe because they just don't understand your angles, or worse - they didn't grab their phone to capture the moment at all.
- You long for beautiful images of you and your children but just can't get what you want using your iphone.
- You see your children growing right in front of your eyes, and you wish you could slow time down to savor it all a little longer.
tell me, mama - can you relate?
My amazing clients are hard-working, busy Moms who want to prioritize making memories with their children, but already have a lot on their to-do lists.
This is your chance to put yourself first for once - all while creating memories your children can carry with them forever.
This Spring, let me put YOU first, mama.

the lite session
The LITE experience for the Moms who are happy with a more pared-down, simple experience and you've got all the details for styling your crew and your own hair and makeup figured out.
Your priority is just want a chance to be photographed on a gorgeous backdrop, and have the photo experience with your children, and the photos created by Chelsey are more important to you than the pampering.
NEW for 2025!

lite session
"My children and I participated in the Celebrating Motherhood Event which was a mini version of Chelsey's Signature Session Experience. The styling assistance leading up to the event, access to the client wardrobe, and professional hair and makeup made for a stress-free session. Chelsey is so warm and welcoming and made all of us feel at ease! I was amazed at how comfortable the kids were in front of the camera, which hasn't always been the case with other photographers. Because of all that Chelsey provided leading up to the event, excellent communication, and her positive energy on the day-of, she was able to capture really beautiful photos that we will cherish forever. I look forward to booking future family sessions with Chelsey!"
