Liam’s Bar Mitzvah: February 7, 2026
Liam’s bar mitzvah was a three part event. A little rehearsal, a little post lunch gathering, and a wicked party at the eZone in Etobicoke. Let’s start at the beginning. I met Liam and his family at Holy Blossom on a chilly February day. Most of our photos happened indoors because that is where the heat was and the sun was not doing much of its job outside. We made our way through Holy Blossom, first floor, second floor, third floor, stopping wherever the light worked. I love this synagogue and it is always a good time shooting there. We grabbed photos with parents and grandparents before heading into the sanctuary for pictures with the Torah. A strong way to begin the day. Fast forward to lunch, and my colleague Justine Apple was on hand to capture everything food and speech related. The toasts, the smiles, the music, the good things to eat; exactly what you want after a beautiful ceremony. A couple of hours later I met the family again at the eZone in Etobicoke, partial chaos in the best way possible, ie; lot’s of running around. Whirlyball, laser tag, basketball, soccer, arcade games, ping pong, tattoos, hora, and I am sure I am forgetting something. The DJ Kings handled the music and kept the dance floor moving. Great party, great energy, a perfect way to wrap it all up. Liam is now a man. Mazal Tov.
