Sweet words from the bride:
"Chelsea is an absolutely amazing photographer! I found Chelsea online while planning my wedding in Asheville and she was always very easy to communicate with. She is extremely organized and met with us prior to booking to ensure we were a good match. She happily attended a pre-wedding meeting at the venue to discuss the ceremony plans which made planning a lot easier!
Our wedding date had to be moved due to Hurricane Helene, she was very supportive and accommodated our wedding date being changed with absolutely zero issues.
On the day of the wedding Chelsea had such a calming presence throughout the day. I really appreciated her breathing technique to encourage us (and our guests) to look more comfortable throughout the photo process. Throughout our wedding day it was very obvious she is a professional with a lot of experience.
We recently got our photos back, and the quality of the photos are amazing! She really captured the many small details and moments of the day. I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a photographer!"
