Chelsea
brown
I grew up on a Saskatchewan farm, came to the Sunshine Coast on my honeymoon, and never really left - we sold everything, lived on a sailboat, and eventually convinced ourselves it was permanent. I've been photographing weddings here since 2020.
I'm a homebody who comes fully alive at weddings, which is either a contradiction or exactly the temperament you want in the person photographing your day.
“CHELSEA DID AN amazing JOB TO CAPTURE OUR happiness, our joy, AND THE MOST NATURAL, genuine MOMENTS OF OUR DAY.”
We truly couldn’t be more grateful for her talent, her heart, and the care she poured into capturing our day. We would recommend Chelsea to absolutely anyone and everyone, and we are so grateful that she was part of our special day.

My Approach
Every wedding gets the same thing: my full attention. Wedding days have a rhythm - the nervous energy of getting ready, the held breath right before the ceremony, cocktail hour finding its feet, and then the moment, when the whole thing starts to open up. That's what I'm following.
the experience
“CHELSEA WAS brilliant FROM START TO FINISH — SHE MADE EVERYONE FEEL COMPLETELY at ease.”
Having her with us on the day felt like having a friend there. She captured every special moment perfectly, bringing our vision to life in a way that exceeded our expectations.

the work i live for
From the last calm moment of getting ready to whatever the dance floor turns into. Full days or a few focused hours, anywhere on the Sunshine Coast - a lodge on the water, somebody's grandmother's garden, the dock you got engaged on. You'll get the beautiful parts, the real parts, and the parts that get a little wild
Before & After the wedding
Engagements, anniversaries, just-because. Somewhere with good light, somewhere meaningful, somewhere worth the drive. I'll have opinions about what you do with your hands; you'll forget the camera's there. The warm-up before the wedding, or the encore after.
Editorial Sessions
Portraits the old way - deliberate light, everyone actually looking at the camera. a backdrop set against something unexpected. Solo, families, for work or play, and a few times a year, concept shoots that start with an idea and become something wonderful and (sometimes) weird.
