Behind every photography project is an amazing connection. I love documenting my clients’ LIVES professionally and personally and collaborating through their vision in a warm and genuine way.
HI,I’M CHANTEL.
I'm a Sacramento-based photographer who enjoys capturing unstaged, candid, and natural moments by connecting with my clients and collaborating on their vision. I want everyone to feel comfortable and confident in front of my lens because that's when the magic happens.
FAMILIES
Any idea, any location. Bring your best mood and I'll do the rest.
PORTRAITS
Every person is beautiful, unique and a curious mystery. Allow me to show you how I see you.

“Chantel over-delivers on every assignment, pushes you to take chances with creative direction, and ensures you walk away with everything you ever envisioned and more. She is an extraordinary photographer and an even better person.”

“Chantel makes the room feel comfortable for people. She always makes us feel like we are laughing as a family instead of posing for a photo. She makes the process fun while always finding the right light.”

“Chantel’s playful and friendly with kids, which results in genuine expressions. The kids (and adults) love getting ready for the shoots because they've always been fun and organic. Chantel chooses convenient outdoor spots, and she makes any location look amazing.”
