CURRENTLY BOOKING 2024 WEDDING DATES!
Hey there!
I'M CHELSEA
Wedding & Newborn Photographer
I'm a small-town Iowa photographer obsessed with scrambled eggs, wheat beer, and my faded t-shirts.
​
My love for photography came from my love for my child and the drive to freeze her growth, her changes, and her little life.
​
I bought a camera, and thanks to Facebook, I completely submerged into my business. An ad for a free photography webinar popped up on my newsfeed shortly after I bought my $350 camera. I watched it and knew this was what I wanted. I bought many props, wraps, and client closet pieces to make it easy for my clients during the planning process + I upgraded my equipment and learned from many mentors! Storytelling, client experience, capturing detail, lighting techniques, social media marketing and so much more!
I'M ALL ABOUT
creating those extraordinary moments
There’s nothing more rewarding than helping you time travel. Whether it’s a trip down memory lane into a newborn birth, a surprise engagement, or the day you say, “I do!” — bringing back all the feels just never gets old. Call me your girl, your rock, your photographer-turned-friend – what the heck, call me yours! Because I’m completely, wholly, and utterly here for you. Feeling the nerves before starting a new chapter of life? The to-be-expected stress of planning a wedding or stressing about bringing home your new bundle of joy? Trust me, I’ve been there! My goal is to take some of that weight off your shoulders – so you can live in the moment and enjoy what’s worth celebrating while I handle commemorating what you’ll cherish for life!

KIND WORDS
Chelsea was easy to work with even through multiple scheduling conflicts! She worked hard to make sure it really worked for my family and I truly appreciate that! On top of her talent she is a kind person and was patient with my toddlers! 10/10 Would recommend!
