It was a pleasure to be able to photograph all 3 kids’ mitzvahs in this family! I absolutely loved all of the Harry Potter themed details, from walking through the wall on Platform 9 3/4, to the directional signs, to the candy in Hogsmeade, butterbeer, and Great Hall candles. And I loved how the guests really got into the theme with so many different costumes and characters! What a great celebration!
Emily celebrated her Bat Mitzvah Erev Thanksgiving (Jewish holidays start after sundown the night before, so why not Thanksgiving?)! What a beautiful way to kick off a weekend about gratitude and family than by sharing joy with family and friends. The weather was perfect for this outdoor event, and the lovely decor and theme pulled the whole thing together! This crew was all smiles from beginning to end, which is one of my favorite things to capture!
It’s harder than usual to write about this mitzvah, because really, the photos speak for themselves. There was so much joy and love and laughter. I hope I’ve done it justice and that you can feel the beautiful light energy that was present in the room this Shabbat morning as Liam was called to the Torah as a Bar Mitzvah.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mia for her Bat Mitzvah Pre Shoot, and was excited to get to photograph her again, this time with her family and friends, to document her ceremony and celebration! Old School Square is a venue I’ve always wanted to photograph, and it did not disappoint! I absolutely loved capturing such a joyful and enthusiastic party in a space with such fun details! The contrast of the modern uplighting and bistro lights, with the classic wood floor and rafters was a perfect backdrop for Mia’s festivities!
