HELLO LOVE,

I’m Chelsea, a fine art boudoir photographer based out of Nashville, Tennessee. My expertise in making women feel beautiful began over a decade ago when I became a licensed cosmetologist. After years of special occasion hair and makeup, I realized self love was lacking. This led me on an artistic endeavor of blending natural beauty with photography.

My job goes far beyond just taking bespoke photographs. I hand paint backdrops to create an ethereal aesthetic, cultivate wardrobe recommendations for sustainable lingerie, plus educate on hair and makeup tips that will help you not just feel beautiful for one day but each day going forward.

FAQ

General Questions

Do you both photograph boudoir?

While we love working together, Chelsea is the only one who photographs and edits boudoir sessions. Your privacy is her main priority and Chelsea takes that very seriously. If you prefer for Chelsea to not highlight images of your boudoir session on social media, let her know upfront before signing the model release.

Do you travel?

Yes! Our permanent residence may be in Nashville, but being a destination wedding photographer means I am always traveling. Travel fees may be added if I am not already traveling to your specific location.

Are there steps to help me prepare?

Yes of course! Between access to newsletter content and educational blogs, you also recieve my list of recommended vendors and places to shop for sustainable lingerie. You phone consultation will include these details and answer all of your questions.

Can I add boudoir into my wedding?

Each wedding is unique and Chelsea always encourage brides to make time for at least a 30 minute boudoir session within their timeline. You will already have your lingerie and hair / makeup finished so why not docuement some beautiful boudoir before slipping into your gown? This also can be used as a belated wedding gift for your partner as well!

Is there weird posing involved?

Not at all! Chelsea takes pride in taking beautiful images of you without weird posing. You will be surprised at just how amazing your gallery will be when you embrace your natural beauty and Chelsea finds most women become more empowered when they realize they didn't have to do a ton to look beautiful in the first place.

What Is A Fine art boudoir Session?

It is boudoir with a classic approach. No weird posing, no odd extras or accessories. Just you and your natural beauty in a simple, elegant setting. What makes these even more unique is Chelsea's custom proposals. They cater to your exact needs ensuring your expereince is one of a kind.

Where do the sessions take place?

Most prefer their boudoir sessions taken in the comfort of their own home. However, if you are wanting a certain aesthetic there are Airbnb's and beautiful boutique hotels to choose from as well. You will have to secure the location beforehand and these are not included in the collection pricing.

Can You Make Me Look Skinny?

While Chelsea uses Lightroom to edit and fine tune your images, she does not use Photoshop to alter the way you look. She removes things such as blemishes and scars but to take away from who you are is not the reason she photographs boudoir. Chelsea finds that her clients appreciate the way their images look even more when they realize their bodies haven't been altered to look a certain way.
