Thank you to our WIPA SoCal member Chelle with Alternative Wedding Videographer for bringing her video artistry our Boots & Bling event!
Dog mom of two. Killer of flies
Chelle is a wedding videographer, a uber nerd powered by caffeine, and has the deeply held belief that scrapbooking at 2 a.m. counts as a personality trait.
Her style is based around 90s nostalgia using mixed media formats to create colorful, campy, and 100% organic home movies. Her special sauce is crafting the humor, fun, and imperfect moments that is full of personality and a lil bit of low brow shenanigans.
