Chelsi was a pleasure to work with as photographer for our small private elopement in Key West. She responded quickly to our booking request, then met with us ahead of time to talk through our desires, make suggestions and agree on the details. The day of, she was great with capturing the "must-have" photos, the fun and emotional moments from the ceremony, and helped us set up a variety of "candid" shots at various places around the beautiful guesthouse where we had the ceremony. The gallery turned out beautifully; the only challenge has been trying to pick from so many great photos! Everyone who's seen them has been very impressed with the. quality, and we really enjoyed working with Chelsi and are very pleased with how the photos came out. Highly recommended!

Chelsi was absolutely awesome! I booked her for a surprise engagement session in Key West while on vacation from NY. Being out of town she was great with planning ahead of time, helping me pick out a spot, and we even had to make some last minute changes on the day of where she was a ton of help! Her photo quality was fantastic and doing everything online couldn’t have been easier! I would highly recommend her!

Chelsi was amazing to work with for proposal photos. She made the process very low stress and was communicative the whole time we worked with her. Chelsi was able to answer any questions or concerns I had about the process and everything was very organized.

Chelsi was amazing and patient from the booking process as we were traveling out of state to plan our destination wedding. We finally nailed down our date for engagement photos and Chelsi came up with the perfect plan after listening to our ideas. We had fun bar shots, golf cart pics, she took us to two other colorful locations and then she absolutely nailed sunset. We couldn’t have had a better or more fun experience’

I reached out to Chelsea very last minute to see if she was available to Phil my parents in Key West. Unfortunately, my folks weren’t feeling photogenic and did not decide to book. Regardless, Chelsea was incredibly effective with her communication and response time was amazing. Her prices were competitive and fair. My folks said that the next time we’re down south, we will get a family portrait with her.
