I’m so glad you’re here!
Hi! Welcome to Catching Crawfish! My name is Chelsi. My husband and I, along with our four boys, a dog, and a small flock of chickens live in rural Northern Colorado. Catching Crawfish began when my children were small and our days were spent getting muddy, exploring, and catching crawfish. Now that they are a little bigger, they still love to go on adventures (especially when it involves mud!) and I still occasionally find new pet crawfish crawling around in buckets on the porch. I’ve loved writing about what I’ve learned as a parent and documenting our moments- particularly the messy, exhausting, wonderful, everyday life of motherhood- with this blog. Have a look around!
During our adventures, I’ve also discovered that documenting through photography is just as fun, magical and rewarding as writing. And I love sharing that passion with you! As a family, kid, and couple photographer based along Colorado’s beautiful front range, I would be honored to have a chance to help you capture those special moments. To find out more, check out my Photos page and click on the Contacts link in the menu to get in touch! I can’t wait to hear from you.

Yes it is 🙂 and thank you! I used to be a High School youth leader and my heart would just ache hearing their stories each week. Now with a youngster at home I am not able to continue going so I hoped to be able to reach others via blogging 🙂 It has been a beautiful journey!
