Hi, I'm Chaya

Your Fine Art Los Angeles Photographer

         am the proud mom of 5 incredible sons and the lucky sister to 5 amazing sisters (and 1 incredible brother). Yes, that’s a lot of family, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! My family is my world, and let’s be real, a mom-preneur keeping up with 5 kiddos doesn’t have much free time. When I find (or make) time, I like to paint,  dance (like no one’s watching), ice skate, swim, ski, work out (gotta be strong to keep up!), and explore G-d’s incredible world with my family.

I'm a bubbly red head with a passion for creativity and sentiment. I was born and raised in sunny Southern California. (It's rare, I know!) As a teacher and a mother I realize how adorable and lovable children are and of course, how fast they grow. As a photographer, my goal is to catch those fleeing moments and create everlasting memories. My sessions are laid back, fun and unique. My style is gentle, intimate and creative. It was just yesterday that I gave birth to my sweet redheaded first born (19 years ago!) and and somehow now have 5 adventurous and delicious boys. Time really does fly. It's not a cliche. Portraits help us bottle up the precious moments and keep them forever. Let's make your memories last!

I have loved babies for as long as I can remember! I was always volunteering to hold, snuggle and play with little ones. I started babysitting at a young age became an aunt at 15 and a mom at 21.
I look forward to meeting you and showering your little one with love and a bit of baby magic!
