Chelsea Kornse is a self-taught, multidisciplinary creative with a focus on documentary photography. Since beginning her journey in 2015, she’s developed a body of work that moves between intimacy and performance - capturing the raw, unguarded moments that define life on and off stage.

Shooting both digital and film, her experience spans festivals, theaters, and arena tours. She’s equally at home in the studio, where her love of creative direction and visual storytelling come together to build imagery that feels intentional, alive, and deeply human. Her work has been featured in Billboard, People, and The Guardian, with clients including Cam, Sony Music, Live Nation, AC Entertainment, Urban Outfitters and more. Inspired by music and the emotion it evokes, Chelsea focuses on honest storytelling through her lens.
