Welcome to Portraits by Chaya
Connecticut Newborn, Baby, Child & Family Photographer
Welcome to Portraits By Chaya! I am a Connecticut Newborn, Baby, Child, and Family Photographer based in Waterbury.
Watching your family grow is an awesome experience. These years are full of beautiful moments, and though it can be hard going through the day-to-day busyness of life, time flies away from us.
When an important milestone arises, such as the birth of a baby, an important birthday, or an engagement, you are overcome with feelings of gratitude and joy at these amazing celebrations. You want to bottle those emotions and relive those feelings you had at that time again and again. Photos are the best way to capture these intimate moments and preserve them for years to come. I feel honored and humbled to create timeless images for you that you will love now and forever.
Portraits by Chaya is the premier Connecticut photography studio that proudly serves New Haven, Hartford, and Litchfield Counties and surrounding areas including but not limited to Waterbury, Wolcott, Torrington, Watertown, Cheshire, Middlebury, and Danbury. I specialize in creating vibrant custom fine art portraits. Whether you need practical and flattering headshots or bespoke family photos you'll treasure for generations, you've come to the right place.
Portraits by Chaya offers a wide range of portrait photography, including:
