Lev’s Bar Mitzvah: September 14, 2024
This two-part mitzvah was to take place at Holy Blossom. We started Thursday lunchtime with a delightful rehearsal photo shoot. Perfect weather, all the time in the world. Lev and I took out time exploring Holy Blossom inside and out. My second time round with his family, so I was looking forward to photographing Lev as Ruby’s bat mitzvah was early Covid and way too confined. So she’s now grown up, and ready to roll again. We added Ruby, some parents, and the whole photoshoot came together perfectly. We did some Torah pictures, and then we put things away until Saturday night when all gloves are off. Fast forward two days, and we are back in gear. I arrive at Holy Blossom whilst everything is being set up. I took Lev for a little stroll again, whilst everyone was getting ready. This was going to be a great evening. DJ Phoenix was ready to bring on the tunes, there were card games and roulette upstairs, just everything that a teenage kid could want; great food, fun times, and an amazing party to be had. Mazel tov guys, what a fun night.
