Hey! I’m Chelsey — I'm a mommy...mamacita.. I'm a mom (little love island reference) and seasoned photographer with 15 years behind the lens, capturing real moments and authentic love stories here in the Smoky Mountains. I’m also the proud wife of an incredible chef who has created and led restaurant concepts all across the country. When I’m not helping couples tell their stories through my camera, you’ll probably find me on some new adventure—traveling is my absolute favorite pastime.
I love laughing at stand-up comedy, getting lost in country music, and trying all kinds of new foods (because life’s too short not to). I’m also completely obsessed with my cat, who’s basically my furry sidekick, and I cherish every moment I get to spend with family and friends.
Photography for me is more than just pictures—it’s about capturing the joy, the connection, and those little moments that make your story uniquely yours. I can’t wait to meet you and create some unforgettable memories together!
All of the photos taken of me on my website are by Amanda May Photos.

“We had such a great experience working with Chelsey and Natalie! We had 17 people ranging in age from not quite 2 to 70 and Chelsey did a great job keeping things moving, working around temperamental children, and making sure we got all of the shots and combos we wanted! ”
