WELCOME TO

CHELSEA TERRY PHOTOGRAPHY

I am so thrilled you're interested in choosing me to document your special day! 

I believe that choosing a photographer is about so much more than just hiring someone to take photos; your photographer should be someone who inspires you, who you can put your full trust in, who calms your nerves and can quiet the noise so that you can focus on what matters and be fully present with your partner. After all, that's what this is all about - the two of you celebrating your love story. I'm excited to give you a little tour so you can learn more about me, the process of working together, and my elopement collections.

 

Let's start this adventure!

HI, I'M CHELSEA!

 First off - THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE! I'm so excited to get to know you! I'm Chelsea -  a wedding and elopement photographer for joyful, adventurous couples who believe in the beauty and significance of this season of life. I'm completely in love with my job, my husband Alex, and our Goldendoodle Ted and cat, Mylo. I've photographed madly in love couples all over the West Coast and beyond (my furthest being San Miguel de Allende, Mexico!), and have found my favorite weddings are those that put the couple first (that's you!), that aren't afraid to wander a little (or a lot) off the beaten path, and that incorporate nature in some meaningful way. 

Beyond photography, I'm a total hippy at heart. I love all things nature, the moon, traveling, wildflowers, old creaky houses, thrift shopping, plants, hiking and horror movies, and Stevie Nicks is my kindred spirit. It's all about good vibes and cozy feels around here!

WHY PHOTOGRAPHY MATTERS

 

My business isn't about photos, it's about people. What makes your love unique? What led you two souls to find each other in this vast, vast world? I want to learn what love looks like for the two of you, so that you can look back on these photos for the rest of your life and say "this is us."

 

I believe deeply in the symbolism of marriage. Our time here is short. The people (and animal companions) who we choose to travel alongside us on this journey matter. Milestones are worth celebrating. Your love story is worth celebrating. Committing your life to another soul is one of the most beautiful, poetic, monumental steps you'll ever take in the course of your life, and I can't think of anything more worthy of being remembered.

 

There is nothing more beautiful than human connection, so to have a job where my soul purpose is to document those connections in a creative and authentic way - through my own unique artistic vision - means everything to me. I'm not just here to take photos. I'm here to create an experience for the two of you that is meaningful. I want to create a connection with you so that you feel safe and comfortable being your truest selves in front of the camera. I want this art-form to be collaborative because together I truly believe we can create something magical.

 

I cannot wait to connect with you, to know you, and to tell your love story. I take photographing your elopement as my highest privilege and honor, and I do everything in my power to make you feel taken care of and seen, and to show you how beautiful your love really is through the images I create. You deserve photos that highlight the best of you.

THE PROCESS

Here’s the scoop on working with me

EACH

COLLECTION INCLUDES:

Customized Photography Coverage

I’ll help you figure out the best amount of time for your elopement day. I offer options from 2 hours up to 10, as well as multi-day options! It all depends on how much adventuring you’d like to do! After our initial consultation, I’ll advise you on coverage hours and help you craft a unique-to-you experience.

Unlimited Consultations

Let's get to know each other! I want to hear all the details about you two as a couple, and what your dream elopement looks and feels like. I’m always available to my couples as they begin the planning process. I know there are a lot of logistics and I’m there for you every step of the way.

Curated Online Viewing / Ordering Gallery

Final hi-resolution images will be delivered in an online gallery, curated to reflect each stage of your elopement day. From this gallery, you, friends and family are welcome to download images, and order prints and albums from the gallery shop.

~100 Final Images Per Hour of Coverage

I typically shoot around 100 images per hour. Sneak peeks will be delivered within a week of your elopement day, and final gallery creation takes 8-12 weeks following the elopement.
