From Creative Direction to Campaign-Ready Content
MY PROCESS
"We worked with Chelsea to launch our baby product brand Babba. I spoke with and interviewed many brand photographers, and ultimately decided to work with Chelsea due to her amazing portfolio and felt she best understood the brand we were trying to create. As a company selling a premium baby product we knew she could elevate the brand so that the photos portrayed to customers that everything about the company is high-quality. As an early startup, we were looking for a professional with experience so we loved her full-service creative direction which allowed us to communicate our thoughts and she put it all together. 100% worth the investment as we wouldn't be where we are today if it weren't for her amazing work!"

WHY BRANDS CHOOSE ME
Photographer, creative director, product stylist
and analytics to produce imagery that resonates and converts. My roots run deep in photography, too—my mom is an award-winning family photographer, and I got my start assisting her. After studying art history and fashion, I moved to Paris, where I worked as a travel journalist (while chasing the perfect croissant). All of that influences how I see the world—and how I help brands tell their stories with style, strategy, and heart. I now live in San Diego with my husband, pup, and twins.
Before launching my business, I worked behind the scenes at a leading wedding editorial brand, ran the photo and social department for an e-commerce boutique, and directed content for a Forbes-listed travel and family influencer. That experience gave me a unique perspective: I didn’t just create content—I got to see how it performed across platforms. It taught me how to blend art

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help cast families or source models?
Absolutely. I coordinate talent that aligns with your audience and brand identity.
What kind of prices can I expect?
Each project is different and it really depends on what your needs are. During our Consultation Call, we'll talk about what kind of imagery you need to achieve your goals. From there, I create a custom proposal with different ways we can work together. To give you an idea, projects typically range from $3,000 - $10,000+, depending on the scope of the work and usage.
how do you make sure i get the photos i need?
For most sessions, I make a very detailed Creative Directive to streamline ideas, shot list, inspiration, and usage, that way we are on the same page. The Creative Directive is part of my proven process to ensure you get the shots you need of either you or your product, with on-brand colors, and photographed with placement in mind (like hero header vs Instagram).
