Hi, I’m Chelsea, a passionate Okanagan photographer based in the stunning Okanagan Valley. I moved here from Ontario in 2006 and quickly fell in love with the breathtaking landscapes — from mountain views and peaceful lakes to dreamy sunsets that make the perfect backdrop for photos.

My photography journey started back in high school when I was always the friend with a camera in hand, capturing candid moments at every gathering. As social media grew, friends began sharing my photos as their favorite memories, and I realized just how much I loved preserving life’s special moments.

Beyond photography, I’ve nurtured a creative love for makeup artistry, especially with Halloween looks and full-face transformations. This passion, combined with my time as a model, gave me a unique perspective on how powerful a beautiful photo can be — not just for how you look but for how it makes you feel.

Now, as a new mom, I understand more deeply how fleeting life’s little moments are — the love, laughter, and authentic connection that deserve to be remembered. I work with amazing clients across Kelowna, Lake Country, Vernon, and throughout the Okanagan Valley, offering a range of services including:

✨ Okanagan wedding photography
✨ Boudoir photography that empowers and celebrates you
✨ Maternity photoshoots capturing  the beauty of motherhood
✨ Family and lifestyle photography that reflects real, candid                     connections
✨ Professional makeup services to add that extra touch of glam




With my warm, outgoing personality, I’m here to make every session fun, relaxed, and collaborative. Whether you feel camera-shy or photo-ready, I’ll guide you through poses, help you feel confident, and make sure your true personality shines through.

Let’s create beautiful, meaningful photos together — I can’t wait to meet you and help tell your story in the most authentic and stunning way.






Now I get to do what I love and create amazing memories for others.

I am chelsea gormley, an okanagan based photographer, mom, makeup artist, and hype girl.
