Lexi’s Bat Mitzvah: September 17, 2022
Photographed by: Justine
It was a humid Saturday evening at Shaarei Tefillah as Lexi’s Parents set up a large tent in the parking lot of the shul for the Bat Mitzvah. Everyone was excited, rushing around getting the last-minute things ready before guests arrived. Lexi looked beautiful in her blue dress, and her siblings were super excited to share in her special day. As soon as Shabbat came out (8:07pm), I began taking photos of the enchanting candle décor and shots of the immediate and extended family. I then took shots of guests schmoozing in the tent, having appetizers and drinks, etc. It was then time for a short Havdallah service with lovely guitar accompaniment from Leo the musician. Lexi gave a beautiful Dvar Torah and sang a few songs. She made her family very proud. After the Havdallah service, everyone came up to the dance floor to do a lively hora and chair lift. Lots of fun! Then it was time for a delicious buffet dinner, more schmoozing, and shots at the photobooth. Lexi’s parents took a break during dinner to have a slow dance on the dance floor; very cute. After dinner, everyone lined up for some tasty desserts and continued their evening of laughing, chatting, and schmoozing. It was a fun, laid back party and Lexi had a wonderful time surrounded by family and friends. Mazal Tov, guys!
