Jana’s Bat Mitzvah: December 3, 2022
This was the first event I have ever photographed at the JCC north on Bathurst north of Sheppard, and it’s is a lovely venue for a bat mitzvah. I met Jenna and the family in the late afternoon and off we did go, wondering around the building looking for interesting places to photograph. The weather was not on our side, as ‘winter is coming’, but we managed. I added in a sister, parents, and grandparents, and we were done with family photos. Now it was just time for the ceremony. Jana read from the torah beautifully and made everyone proud. There was plenty of schmoozing to be had, and that started the evening with a bang. Once we were all back inside, Harlan from Superfly was holding court for this party. Jana and her friends were nonstop, it was dance the night away, and away they did dance. Lovely speeches, cotton candy, popcorn, just what a teenager needs. Mazel tov, guys, so nice to be there.
