MEET CHEESY!
Hi, I’m Chelsea! The photographer, creative, educator, and studio owner behind CheesyPics. I’m based in Greenville, SC and I specialize in creating creative, luxurious, and personalized photo experiences that celebrate you, your story, and life’s biggest moments.
For the past 10+ years, photography has been more than just a side hustle! It’s been my creative outlet, my business, and a way to help people see themselves in a new light. From birthdays and graduations to maternity, branding, and family sessions, I’m passionate about turning your ideas into visuals that feel like you.
My approach is a blend of creativity, direction, and storytelling, so you never have to worry about what to do in front of the camera. I’ll guide you every step of the way, from concept to final images, to make sure you leave with photos you’re obsessed with.
A little more about me! Outside of photography, I’m currently a 4K teacher with a background in early childhood development and special needs, having previously worked as an Early Interventionist. Working with children has always been another passion of mine!
My love for creativity also extends beyond the camera! I’ve had the opportunity to work as a model with two modeling agencies, giving me experience on both sides of the lens. This has helped me develop an even greater appreciation for photography, creativity, and making others feel confident in front of the camera.
When I’m not behind the camera or in the classroom, you can find me traveling, exploring new places, or making memories with friends. I love connecting with new people, and I can’t wait to meet you and bring your vision to life!

My why!
CheesyPics started back in 2018 as a simple hobby, inspired by the creativity and encouragement of family and friends. What began as something I enjoyed doing quickly grew into a passion for capturing memories, telling stories, and bringing creative visions to life. Fast forward to 2024, I took a major leap and opened my very own photography studio in Taylors, South Carolina! Since then, it’s been nothing but growth, creativity, and new opportunities. What started as a hobby has blossomed into something bigger than I ever imagined, and the best part? I’m just getting started!
