I'm Chelsea, the woman behind the camera! I'm located in Lowville, New York. 2026 will be my 13th year as a photographer and year number 11 of weddings. I added a little studio location in 2022 so that I could have a space for newborn sessions and milestones. I love being known as your Family photographer and capturing every season that life offers. I currently offer Engagements & Weddings, and Family portraits!
I love small-town life, where slow days, open land, and time with family matter most. Some of my favorite moments are the simplest. I love walks around my family farm, an evening on the porch with a friend, and the kind of days that feel unhurried.
When I’m not behind the camera, I’m usually attempting to grow something (with mixed success) or picking up my film cameras just for the joy of it. Summer will always have my heart because of the long days that seem to stretch on forever.
During your session, I love to create a space where people feel comfortable, known, and completely themselves. If you want your session to include your horses, cows, or chickens, I’m always all in. There’s something special about capturing life as it really is. That’s where the magic happens!
