About this vendor
Hi, I'm Chelsea! I am a born and raised New England girl. Lover of all four seasons, adventure, the outdoors, meeting new folks and hearing their stories, and lover of life and family.
I am a lifestyle photographer based in the heart of the Berkshires, specializing in happy, intimate and authentic photography for families and couples since 2009. With an unobtrusive and [what clients have called] "stealthy" approach, I am able to create images that tell the true story of your family and love.
Although I work mainly in the Berkshires, I travel to the Hudson Valley and into the Vermont mountains frequently, and I am always ready for new destinations.

I can’t recommend Chelsea enough. My husband and I wanted our photos to feel authentic and natural so that when we looked back, we felt like we could relive each special moment in its truest sense. Chelsea did just that. She beautifully captured our love and the happiness and emotion of our guests, and did an excellent job at documenting so many candid moments that have brought us back to a feeling and a memory.
She checked in with us throughout the year, so that even though we didn’t meet her until our big day, we trusted her work and her vision. Her presence was calm and reassuring. She kept us on schedule, and ensured that amid the wedding day chaos, we could take some moments to slow down and savor the day.
It was a total dream to work with Chelsea for our wedding! From our initial phone call to the end of the reception, Chelsea's thoughtful, warm energy made us feel calm, confident, and excited. It's immediately clear that Chelsea cares about making the entire experience positive and authentic to you as a couple. She really took the time to get to know us and to think through what was important to us on our wedding day, both in terms of photography and in terms of overall structure and vibe. We were so happy to have her by our side throughout and absolutely love how the photos came out!
Chelsea was absolutely amazing to work with. She is so personable and makes getting your pictures taken such an easy experience. Her attention to detail is impeccable. We are absolutely in love with the pictures and will continue to work with her for our family photos in the years to come.
Chelsea is absolutely top notch. Not only does she take amazingly beautiful photos but she is very organized in doing so. We could not have had our wedding day run so smoothly without her. Her calming demeanor eased all nerves instantly and she treated our loved ones as if they were her own throughout our evening. 10/10 recommend her for all of your photo needs!
Chelsea was a DREAM photographer from start to finish. She was a pleasure to work with even before the wedding day. Our meetings prior to the wedding were informative and productive and her pre-wedding forms proved to be so helpful on the day of. We met in person for the first time on the morning of the wedding and she could not have made us feel more comfortable. Chelsea was a blast to be with all day. She laughed with us the entire time while also making sure we were on schedule and that she was capturing everything we wanted. She shared previews right after the wedding which were so fun to see. The final photos were even more beautiful than we imagined they'd be. We can't stop looking at them. I would recommend her 100%.
Chelsea was very organized, and professional which was complimented by such a great personality!
We hired Chelsea for our original October 2020 wedding. Her communication was open and organized, I knew from our first email exchange she was the right fit for us. We met Chelsea for our engagement pictures on a freezing cold morning in December and she could not have been a better sport. Then, Covid-19 happened. Chelsea was the first of our vendors to reach out with a plan and see what our thoughts were. We were able to not only secure her for our new date in 2021, but she also traveled to our new "mini-money". Her communication was prompt, she is calm, positive, and not afraid to jump in where she can help- she knew exactly how to fit my massive dress in the car! We are in love with our sneak peaks and cannot wait to see the rest. Our day would not nearly have run as smooth without her- she is a positive professional you want with you on your special day! The best part is, we get to have even more pictures from her next year!
Hello future brides & husbands! You are probably going through your options for a potential photographer at this point in your planning process. I did the same, and before continuing your search please know, Chelsea is an absolute WIN!
She was amazing throughout the entire process of planning, up until the big day and afterwards. Prior to us hiring Chelsea as our photographer, we had a conference over the phone. That was the moment I knew she was "our one" LOL! The vibe was very easy going and it was as if she met my husband and I many times before, she was very welcoming and professional all in the same breath. There was a simple chemistry that allowed us to make the decision right after our introductory call. When I did finally meet Chelsea, they day of my wedding, I was so relieved! She was exactly as she came off on our numerous phone calls, emails, and texts that led up to the day. This for me was extremely reassuring as I was very anxious and jittery the day of, pretty much full of nerves even though it was the most exciting day of my life! She brought me back down to earth and reminded me what a beautiful bride I was and that we had a perfect day ahead.
It was a bright sunshine-y day, barely a cloud in the sky! We had our first look pictures on the beach I grew up spending my summers on. A very difficult setting considering the light, prime time of day, and reflection of the ocean. Chelsea literally conquered this difficult timing and lighting as if it was her forte. Truly she is a rockstar, an absolute pleasure to work with, and an extremely talented photographer.
I promise you will not regret your decision in hiring her. I am already looking forward to working with her on any future photographer needs!
She is an incredible photographer, likewise as an individual!
My husband and I hired Chelsea as our wedding photographer after watching her work her magic at two of my cousins' weddings. We already knew she could handle large, boisterous families, of which we were about to unite two. All along the way, we stressed our desire to get nice portraits together (as a couple who had about five photos together before the wedding) but mostly focus on our families and the reunion aspect of a wedding: drinking, dancing, connecting. From the second we met up that afternoon, Chelsea was ready to go with a plan, shots she wanted, places she wanted to check out, and she did it all with amazing efficiency. Over the course of the evening, she captured every shot we wanted and more. She handled our crazy family group shots with proficiency and poise (which is a challenge when you're shooting across a busy street!) and snuck in some fun surprises. She was also very prepared for the low light in the reception venue (a restaurant), getting lots of well-lit and crisp shots of our friends and families that we will treasure forever. If you need someone who will keep you organized, get everything done, and make you laugh and feel comfortable the entire time, I absolutely cannot recommend Chelsea enough.
Chelsea was the photographer for our wedding this past May. I seriously could not speak more highly of Chelsea and her work. She was so professional, friendly, easy going and skilled. She worked quickly and efficiently to make sure we got all the shots we wanted while not making photography the focus of the day. Chelsea walked us through every step of the process from providing sample timelines to called us the week before the wedding to go over the plan and all the final details. I appreciate her hard work and careful planning of photo locations, colors and our personal tastes. Our wedding photos came out absolutely beautiful and we got a sneak peak of all of our photos less then 2 weeks after our wedding! I would 100% recommend Chelsea!
From the start Chelsea made us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. On our big day, she made everything seamless and everyone around us raved about how talented and kind she is. We couldn’t have found a better person to capture one of the most important days of our lives!
Chelsea went above and beyond as our photographer and we had the best experience! Not only was she calm, efficient and a very talented photographer, she served as an informal guide to our day--making sure we were where we needed to be when, and answering all those last-minute detail questions that popped up that day--something only someone with her level of knowledge and expertise could do. Our photos turned out beautifully. We received many comments on the photos and compliments, including quite a few friends who asked for a referral for their own weddings. I could not recommend Chelsea more.
Hiring Chelsea was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was so flexible, kind, professional, fun and easy to have around, and of course most important she did incredible work. We had some unexpected timeline changes and the usual chaos, and she and her time rolled with it all. I loved how they blended right in and managed to get wonderful shots before and throughout our whole event without ever being in the way. Truly, they were a pleasure to be around while providing an incredible service. Our house is covered in photos from our wedding; they all came out fantastic. I'm a little camera shy, and Chelsea helped put me at ease. The results really speak for themselves, as my whole family has and cherishes their wedding albums. I can't recommend Chelsea strongly enough; there was not one single downside. Thanks for sharing our special day and helping us preserve it, Chelsea! :)

You know you picked a good photographer when every one of your bridesmaids contacts you afterwards asking if they can use her for their eventual weddings. Chelsea was absolutely fantastic! She is authentic, down to earth, and incredibly experienced, as can be seen by her work. She made us feel so comfortable and captured the most heartwarming but authentic moments of our wedding - all without us ever noticing she was there. We could not have asked for more and we hope to work with her again in the future as our little family grows. We had an incredible team of vendors, but Chelsea was without a doubt one of our favorite. Cannot recommend her enough!!
Chelsea is absolutely amazing in all she does! She did our engagement and wedding photography and we have been continuously blown away by the work she produces. She is also very easy going and made us feel comfortable right from the start. We would recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for an amazing photographer!
We could not recommend Chelsea more! Beautiful photos, a perfect eye for details, and a truly professional photographer. From our Brooklyn, NY engagement shoot to our wedding in Troy, NY - every photo was perfect and every shoot with Chelsea was fun and easy. Chelsea was organized throughout the whole process and made sure we got the photos we wanted and more. We highly recommend Chelsea for your wedding photography.
Chelsea was amazing from the moment we started talking to delivering our photos so quickly. I booked Chelsea about a year and a half before the wedding and am so glad I found her. She has a true passion for photography and truly is able to capture the moment. She was more than willing to travel to NYC to do our engagement pictures in Central Park (where we got engaged). Those pictures were amazing and I knew we were in good hands for our wedding day. The day of the wedding she showed up completely prepared and with a smile on her face. Looking back at her pictures I feel like I am reliving the day as she captured all the emotions. I am so happy with her work and I couldn't believe how quickly she delivered the photos. I would highly recommend Chelsea to anyone who is looking for an amazing photographer who can truly capture the day without being obtrusive and whose passion shows in her work. We will definitely be recommending Chelsea to our friends and hope to use her in the future!
Chelsea photographed our wedding at the Woodstock Inn in Vermont. She was a pleasure to work with and her photos are terrific. We highly recommend her work!
