Yoni and Ronen's B'nai Mitzvah | B'nai Torah Boca, Raton, Fl and Dave and Busters Hollywood, FL Photographer

Yoni and Ronen’s B’nai Mitzvah was a day filled with family, fun, and unexpected surprises. As cousins, sharing this milestone made it even more special. Their mock mitzvah service at B’nai Torah in Boca set the stage for a meaningful moment before the celebration kicked off.

A last-minute venue change led to an exciting twist—the party moved to Dave & Buster’s in Hollywood, FL! With a mix of a private room and game cards, guests had the perfect balance of celebration and fun. They even got to do the hora, bringing tradition into the unique setting. One of the highlights? Ronen got to pick a prize as a human crane, adding an unforgettable moment to the night. And of course, no celebration is complete without great treats—guests enjoyed mini churros and rolled ice cream, the perfect sweet ending to an incredible night.

Capturing the energy and joy of this mitzvah was a blast! Whether your event is traditional or full of surprises, I love documenting the moments that make it truly yours.

Hayden's Bat Mitzvah | Chabad of Parkland | Boca Lago | South Florida Photographer

Hayden’s Bat Mitzvah was a beautiful celebration from start to finish. Held at Chabad of Parkland, the service was led by Rabbi Mendy Gutnick, whose warmth always enhances the ritual and makes these moments even more special. Surrounded by family and friends, Hayden embraced this milestone with joy and tradition, marking an important step in her journey.

The party continued at Boca Lago, where the energy of the guests brought the celebration to life.

A slideshow reliving Hayden’s childhood through the present added a sentimental touch.
