elopement \ i-ˈlōp-mənt \ noun, plural
When a couple intentionally plans their wedding around what makes them happy and celebrates their partnership- instead of adhering to societal norms and traditional wedding expectations. Typically takes place surrounded by nature.
Hold up, what's an elopement?
Chelsea couldn’t have captured our love and personalities more perfectly on our day. The whole day felt like we were hanging out with an old friend, never felt posed, forced or awkward in anyway. (If you have a somewhat camera shy husband, this is just another reason why you need to book Chelsea.) She is so much more than a photographer. Through the entire planning process she was so easy going and helpful with any questions I had. I knew I would love our photos, but what she delivered in such a quick turn around was above and beyond what I could have imagined! We truly couldn’t picture our day without Chelsea and her awesome assistant. And are so lucky to now not only call Chelsea a vendor but a friend! Can’t wait to have her shoot our next big life events! You need her!"

I cannot recommend Chelsea enough as a photographer. When my husband and I were choosing a photographer for our wedding we wanted someone who we felt like an old friend. Chelsea added so much fun and adventure to our day. She knows exactly where to go for the most amazing photos on the North Shore (and beyond). Chelsea captured the most amazing shots and our love and personalities shine through them.

Chelsea is INCREDIBLE! She photographed our wedding on Madeline Island this fall. The pictures are stunning and she made our wedding day SO special. She was extremely helpful answering questions and directing everyone where they needed to be. She is efficient and personable! Chelsea was prompt in delivering our photos and we can’t stop looking through them ... she is magical!! Thank you, Chelsea!
