Maternity

This season brims with excitement and awe as you embark on one of life's most sacred journeys - the miracle of creating a new life. Each curve of your radiant form tells the story of the incredible strength, sacrifice, and unconditional love that blossoms within.

Maternity portraits provide the perfect opportunity to pause and reverently capture these fleeting moments before they become warm memories. More than just photos, these pieces become treasured keepsakes preserving the first chapters of your family's story. They bottle that ethereal "glow" of new parenthood, the flutters of life stirring, and the quiet moments spent dreaming of the little one's arrival.

Boudoir

This boudoir experience is about so much more than just taking photographs - it's a powerful journey of self-discovery and embracing the beauty that radiates from within you. Together, we'll collaborate to artistically capture and celebrate your feminine essence, sensuality, and spirit in its most authentic form.

Rather than feeling self-conscious, this will be an empowering creative space for you to let your vibrant, confident self shine uninhibited before the camera. The result? Breathtaking portraits that ignite your feminine mystique and immortalize those moments of joyful, unapologetic self-love.

Aloha, I’m Chelsea!

I’m a Maui based photographer with a soft spot for life's sweetest moments and the magic of love. Maui stole my heart from the Pacific Northwest with its rich culture and breathtaking landscapes.

With every wave and every sunset, I am reminded of how fortunate I am to be in this enchanting place. My love and deep appreciation for this beautiful planet influences how I want to photograph those I work with – by incorporating the beauty of Mother Nature, capturing genuine emotions, and allowing people to exist as they are.

My hope is to document a small sliver of your love story – unfiltered, and genuine.
