Based in Asheville, I create artful photography rooted in real life. I’m especially drawn to the sweet and simple moments.

Hello! I'm a WNC native living in Asheville since 2014 which is also the year I started Chelsea Lane Photography.

I began my work life in the hospitality industry where thoughtful customer service really stuck with me. I bring the same attentiveness and empathy to my photography now.

I find a lot of inspiration in how nature changes each season and in the simple, nostalgic charm of illustrations - both influence how I see small moments, light and story.

While I love to travel, my favorite place is home. Most days you’ll find me on my back porch with my husband and our dogs. A sense of home and ease is a quiet throughline in my work.

Thanks for stopping by!

Chelsea

 WHAT INSPIRES ME LATELY

 MY PHILOSOPHY

01. THOUGHTFUL

I create a calm, easygoing experience, leaving room for things to unfold naturally. I guide when needed and step back when it matters more.

02. SIMPLE

To me, simple is believing that what’s already there is enough. You don't need to be trendy or extravagent here.

03. HONEST

No stiff posing, no over-editing. Your images will be perfectly imperfect with an understated edit.

Everyone is welcome and celebrated here!
I work with couples and creatives of all backgrounds, orientations and identities.
