Upstate New York based photographer
Documenting & Capturing your
where your moments become your story
Photography, for me, starts with noticing. The tiny in-between moments that end up meaning the most. I’m drawn to the feelings you can’t script: sunlight slipping across a room, laughter that turns into something softer, the kind of love that shows up in the smallest gestures. I guide you when it helps, step back when the moment is unfolding on its own, and trust my instinct to know the difference. What you get are images that feel warm, true-to-you, and timeless, so you’ll still love your photos 20 years from now.

Where Moments Feel Right at Home
Capturing every single adventure
I’m Chelsey — an Upstate New York photographer capturing love with honesty, intention, and heart.
I’m the kind of photographer who approaches your day like a friend — someone who helps you feel comfortable, laugh, and forget there’s even a camera around. Sessions with me feel easy: music playing, movement instead of stiff poses, and conversations that make the hour fly by. On wedding days, I’m the voice reminding you that the late entrance or crooked tie won’t matter in the story you’ll remember. Long after the vows and final dances, I stay invested, because once I witness your moments, they matter to me. I hope to be the photographer you book for all your milestones and big moments going forward.
