winston salem wedding photographer captures candid couples moment after ceremony

When the memories fade, when those you love are no longer able to give you that same embrace, what you’ll have are memories, and these photos ensure that your memories remain the same. In the meantime, I’ll show up on wedding day, stoked to be there celebrating with you and later deliver you a collection of images that make up your very own badass day. I will be by your side more than anyone else at your wedding (even the one you’re about to marry). I’ll be there for the laughs among friends and tears behind closed doors that no one else will see. I’ll be there when those tears have dried up and drinks are poured as music blasts throughout the air. If you’re seeking comfort, a hug (or really just need someone to pour you a shot), I’m right there. There will be big moments & quieter ones that sneak right by you; that’s what I’m there to see and to showcase because that’s what you deserve. A photographer that truly cares about what matters most to you and that’s what I will be.

DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT

I'll let these babes do the talking

NC wedding photos with dogs

KATIE & LOGAN

The best decision we made through the entire process (besides marrying one another!) was hiring Chelsea as our photographer. From the second you make contact with her she is personable and deeply interested in YOUR story. She takes the time to understand you and your spouses personalities and then magically showcases that in her work!! My now husband is a total goon if there is a camera pointed his way and Chelsea somehow created the perfect mix of "serious but still us" photos and we could not be more obsessed. Your photographer is there and by your side from the time you're putting on lipstick and getting dressed to the very end of the night and I am so so glad we chose Chelsea!

KELSIE & VICTOR

Not only are her pictures absolutely breathtaking, but she is one of the sweetest, most down-to-earth and professional people we had the pleasure of working with throughout the entire wedding process. Meeting her was like catching up with an old friend, and she made our engagement and wedding photos a breeze. It truly feels so effortless and fun, and you'll have more beautiful pictures than you'll know what to do with! Our wedding day went by so fast, but I'm so thankful for all of the little moments she captured that I get to look back on and relive for the rest of my life.

BRANKICA & JORDAN

She pours her heart and soul into every single photo and is truly passionate about what she does. Our wedding day went by SO QUICKLY and we are SO glad we have our gorgeous photos to remember it by! Not only is Chelsea amazing at what she does, but she's also super down-to-earth and easy to work with. She put so much effort into making my husband and I laugh during both our engagement and wedding photos --- it really helped our natural smiles come across. Stop looking for another photographer because you won't find one better than Chelsea Renay!

LAUREN & AUSTIN

Chelsea helped everything run so smoothly, I never once worried if we would get all of the pictures we wanted because we got everything we wanted & more! Not only was she an absolute amazing photographer but she also became my right hand girl during the reception and helped me slip a Smirnoff Ice under my dress so I could ICE my husband during the garter removal! We honestly feel like we gained a friend with Chelsea. Words could never express how thankful we are for her!

PATRIZ & ANDY

She's organized, efficient, funny, charming, and most of all, she's PERSONABLE. You can tell she loves what she does (pretty positive she happy cried with me at the end of the night, sorry to call you out Chels). My hubby and I felt like complete celebs with her paparazzi comments, and when I saw my sneak peeks LITERALLY NOT EVEN 4 DAYS AFTER MY WEDDING, I really felt like our wedding photos belonged in a magazine. Everyone has been in absolute awe. It's just the greatest feeling in the world to know that Chelsea Renay REALLY captured the best day of my life in a way that I could not have envisioned for myself because it turned out to be even BETTER than how amazing I already thought it would be. She's the gift that keeps on giving, and she deserves EVERY. BIT. of recognition for her art and talent.

ASHANTI & VERGUS

From the very second I hit the submit inquiry button on Chelsea’s website it’s been nothing short of an outstanding experience!!! She is full of joy and her personality beyond beautiful. She kept an open line of communication and whenever I had any questions she responded instantly!!! On our wedding day she was such a pleasure to have as a photographer! She made sure to capture every moment and she didn’t make us feel rushed!!! She and her second shooter were great cheerleaders. They kept us all smiles throughout the whole night! My husband and I keep looking at our photos because they came out BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! Like she was worth every penny and much more. You’re definitely in great hands with her and I would definitely recommend her to future brides! We love you hun!
