Chryssa Chaina
Wedding photographer
Pregnancy & Newborn photographer
I studied Photography at Athens Technological Education Institution and also studied Architecture Design. But my love always was for Fine Arts, so it was one way for me to work as a photographer. I have participated in numerous workshops and taught by famous wedding photographers from all over the world, since I believe knowledge never stops.
I am working as a wedding photographer since 2011 and photograph weddings all over Greece. In every wedding I want to capture the real feelings and moments of the people who participate in it. I love to photograph the emotions, the smiles, the details, everything that make the wedding photography so special and unique.
Since 2016 I specialize in pregnancy and newborn photography. Is my second passion which I am devoted in my work…the first days of motherhood, the life that grows inside a mother, the purity of a newborn and the priceless first moments of the baby, are the romance in my photography life.
Through the years I have been awarded and distinguished many times in International Competitions, both on Photoweddingstories and Cosmos Awards Competition.
