Chelsea Francis
Hello!
About Me
When I was in high school I won the superlative “Most likely to make you smile” in a landslide (no one voted), which has come in very handy in my 12+ year career as a photographer. I run a tight ship on photo shoots and with my consulting clients, meaning I prioritize fun and ease, and I want everyone to succeed.
Are you burnt out or looking to make big moves on a creative project you’re working on and just want to get to the good stuff ?

I like to say I specialize in photography that feels good .
Don’t just take my word for it

Chelsea is an incredibly intentional CD. There’s no copy/paste in her approach to working with clients. She’s present, listens to understand, is quick to act, and is unafraid to get in the trenches with you through every step of the process. She’s excellent at vision refinement/ideation and has the chops and skillsets to bring said ideas to life.

Chelsea was a godsend when I needed it most. She helped me set up my website and prepared my business for a seamless client facing experience. She helped me with goal setting and breaking my goals up into smaller pieces that were easy to tackle. She was always there with a plan for anything I threw at her. If you need organization, goal setting, and consulting for anything related to your creative business, Chelsea Francis is the person for you!

Working with Chelsea has been everything we dreamed of and more! She is one of the most creative, talented, and kind individuals we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. She helped our ideas come to life beautifully and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does and it shows through in everything she creates.
