I’m Chelsea, a Louisiana rooted, California based photographer drawn to the artful details tucked into everyday life. My work is inspired by the moods of the ocean, my Southern upbringing, and the little moments of family life. I love a coastal blue color palette as much as I love moss on cypress. With a love for film-inspired imagery, rich textures, natural light, and a sense of childlike wonder, I capture places and moments that feel both familiar and timeless. Through Sawai Studio, I’m bringing together my photography and creative perspective to offer accessible art that transports you to your happy place.

From my heart to your home xoxo
