Whether your team has a polished brief or just a vibe and a launch date, I step in as your creative partner — managing production, aligning visuals with your brand and audience, and ensuring the final deliverables are elevated, on-brand, and work seamlessly across every channel.
I’m well-versed in evolving marketing goals — and the internal folder full of inspo screenshots and “reshoot ASAP” flags that comes with them.

The briefs I shoot from today look a lot like the ones I used to write.
Before building a full-time photography practice, I spent years on the brand side — as a features editor and content director for two nationally recognized digital media brands. I've reviewed briefs, managed content strategies around ROI and evergreen performance, and delivered asset libraries built to work across paid, organic, and social simultaneously.
I know what it feels like to be accountable for whether the visuals actually performed.
That's why I work as an embedded creative partner — handling photography, creative direction, and full production so your team stays focused on the bigger picture. Location scouting, talent casting, shoot logistics, final delivery. Whether you arrive with a polished brief or just a launch date, I build the visual system around it.
Intentional work, built to earn its place in your campaign.
Meet Chelsea
Photographer, creative director, CONTENT STRATEGIST
Casting, locations, shoot-day logistics, and final delivery — handled. You bring the brief; I bring everything else.
With a background in brand-side content strategy, I shoot with performance in mind. That means imagery planned around what actually converts, not just what looks good in a deck.
Every shoot is planned around your complete deliverable set — hero imagery, paid media, social, and e-commerce — so no channel gets shortchanged when the campaign launches.
Full production,
fully managed
Assets built for every channel from the start
A photographer who's read
the analytics
For the past 14 years, I've created imagery and directed campaigns for leading brands across fashion, food and beverage, hospitality, and travel — working directly with in-house marketing teams, agencies, and brand managers who needed a creative partner they could trust to deliver.
The work speaks for itself.
