The Details
-
Once you reach out, you’ll receive a personalized response with availability and tailored collection details. If we’re aligned, your date is officially reserved with a signed contract and retainer. From there, you can exhale, knowing your memories are in trusted hands.
-
As your wedding day approaches, we’ll collaborate on a photography timeline that flows naturally with your day. I’m here to offer guidance on lighting, pacing, and intentional moments, ensuring your day feels calm, unforced, and beautifully documented without disruption.
You’ll never be rushed, posed awkwardly, or pulled away from what matters most.
-
On the day itself, I arrive with a calm, attentive presence, blending seamlessly into your celebration. I focus on the in-between moments, the quiet glances, the laughter, and the emotions you didn’t even realize were happening, while also creating refined, timeless portraits you’ll treasure forever.
My approach is gentle, intuitive, and deeply respectful of the energy of your day.
-
Every image is carefully hand-edited with a consistent, timeless aesthetic true to the Chelcie Lou style. Your gallery is curated with intention, ensuring the story of your day unfolds beautifully from beginning to end.
No presets, no over-editing, just honest, elevated storytelling.
-
Your full gallery is delivered through a private, password-protected online gallery where you can download, share, and relive your wedding day. From there, you’ll have the option to preserve your images through heirloom albums and fine-art prints, designed to be held, passed down, and cherished for generations.
-
I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every couple receives my full attention, care, and creative energy. This is more than photography, it’s an experience rooted in trust, presence, and storytelling.
