About Me

Oh hey! I'm Chelsea and I am the one behind the camera that is Raising Arrows Photography! I am a wife, mother to five, and a finder of the beauty in the everyday. I am here to love people and give you my devoted time and attention.

For the longest time, I lost myself in motherhood. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids with my whole heart, but I needed something for me. Photography saved me in a sense. It's my creative outlet. My place to get out of the house and meet amazing clients and friends.

I take pride in having a very fun, laid back experience with you. We hang out, laugh a lot, and tell stories. My goal is to provide you with memories in the form of beautiful, authentic photos that capture the story of your life and evoke emotion. Photos that you will cherish for years to come!

I love photos that feel natural, not stiff, and I give a lot of direction to my families in order to achieve that look. I make it a priority to help families feel comfortable in front of my camera.

I LOVE children and family photography. I have a soft spot for children. As a momma of five, I know kids are unpredictable. I understand your kid is never going to be totally angelic for photos. They aren't going to sit perfectly still and give me endless smiles. Let's get rid of that idea and breathe, because I don't expect that at all.

The goofy smiles and personality shots are so important and precious. There is already enough pressure in this world. Your photo shoot (which is to celebrate the love and joy your family has) shouldn't be one of them.

I can't wait to meet you!
