Chelsea Shorkey is an absolute gem to work with! As CEO of Here Comes The Guide, I've collaborated with many talented designers over the years, but Chelsea truly stands out. Chelsea has been a key partner as we’ve developed our wedding venue education course “Marketing The Murder Barn”. I couldn’t have done this project without her.
When we were building the website for our fictional venue, The Barn at Penrose Estate, she didn't just nail the design – she completely understood the tone and vision I was going for from day one. Her hand-drawn illustrations are stunning and add such an authentic, artistic touch that perfectly captures the gothic romance we were after. What I love most about working with Chelsea is how she flows with whatever the project needs. Whether we're pivoting on messaging or adding new elements, she's always game and makes it feel effortless. She's incredibly talented, intuitive about what works, and just a breeze to collaborate with. Any venue looking for someone who can bring their story to life visually would be lucky to work with her!
