Leah’s Bat Mitzvah Lunch: November 13, 2016 I photographed Leah at home the day after her bat mitzvah. She’s a wonderfully sweet kid, the second of the three sisters that I have photographed. The light was fantastic, the family was in a mood to schmooze, and it was such a nice way to spend the morning. I go back a few years with the family and extended family so it was nice to connect again. Leah, you looked fantastic, and I know the morning service was amazing. Mazel Tov.

Ori’s Bar Mitzvah Rehearsal: November 4, 2016 Photographed by Ben This rehearsal photo-shoot was so much fun, it helped me forget the fact that my car had broken down just as I was arriving at the synagogue. The warmth and kindness of the entire family that was on display during the rehearsal spilled over to after the photo-session when they asked me to join them for shabbat dinner while I waited for the tow truck to arrive. Too kind. Ori was great and the whole family was very special. Thanks for having me photograph you all. All photos HERE Selected photos are HERE

Jordan’s Bar Mitzvah: October 29, 2016 Photographed by Ben This day-time bar mitzvah party had sunshine filling every corner of the event space in abundance. It was matched only by the warmth and energy being displayed by everyone inside having a fantastic time. Jordan was spectacular at the torah and at the party thereafter. Jonni missed a great party.

Nancy & her Kids: Cedarvale Nov 13, 2016 Nancy and I have traveled to Israel together on the One Family Hike, but I have not met the family… nor have I met the family pets. We all met in Cedarvale Park last week to catch the end of a spectacular fall, and set out to photograph the gang for keepsake… family pets included. There were some extra humans on set to handle the pups, and of course, they got caught up in the action. A beautiful way to spend a Sunday afternoon in November.

OneFamily Fund Hike: Israel 2016 The OneFamily Hike this year was spectacular. This is my 5th year as photographer, and it gets better each year. This was our largest group, around 80 hikers. 2016 was delightfully unique as we welcomed ParaTrek, a company which supports and provides hikes for physically disabled hikers. Selected Photos are HERE… a ‘Best of 2016‘ if you need a quick reminder. All photos are HERE… and there are many galleries, take your time. I have sorted the photos into portfolios based on activity, not chronological order. Thanks to the many contributors for their stunning images; Harvey, Debbie, Shelley, Judy, Joanne, & Bruce. Thank you all for being such wonderful subjects, making my job so easy, and making the week so special. HERE is a piece which gives a good synopsis of OneFamily. If you would like more general information on the OneFamily Fund, please go HERE, and the most recent Jerusalem Post article on our 2016 hike is HERE. Jonni

Sasha’s Bar Mitzvah: Oct 23, 2016 Sasha’s bar mitzvah rehearsal and party were awesome. He is one smooth dude; the rehearsal was just Sasha and Zoe at Beth Torah casually running through what was to be a fabulous service on Saturday evening. The party was the perfect combination; intimate in feel and big on spirit. This boy has moves, Sasha and his posse tearing it up. As usual, Magen Boys raised the roof on the occasion, the decor looked stunning thanks to Trevor Florence Designs, and the inimitable Fern Cohen brought the whole affair together seamlessly. Thanks for having me celebrate with you guys. Selected photos HERE.

Adam’s Bar Mitzvah: Sept 10, 2016 Adam’s Bar Mitzvah party was a blast. From the portrait photoshoot near The Factory to the mitzvah ceremony and finally the celebration, it was a roller-coaster ride of an event. These two brothers were made for photos, sharp as they come in those suits. Rabbi Polansky always provides an inclusive and warm service, and Sole Power rocked the night away. From Vivian’s (2 Steps Ahead) outstanding party planning to the amazing decor provided by Natalie (S & H Design), the night was seamless. Made my weekend, thanks for having us capture the night for you.

Josh’s Bar Mitzvah: Sept 4, 2016 This was a fantastic rehearsal, ceremony, and party over the weekend. Josh, brothers Jonah and Jeremy, and parents Sharon and Rob were all on hand for the festivities. Josh was amazing, long Saturday service and a shorter Sunday Rosh Chodesh service. All in all, a great job. I photographed the rehearsal on the Thursday when we all got to slow things down for the evening before the busy weekend. And on Sunday, Rabbi Kaplan, I like this guy. He charismatically brings warmth to his congregation at Chabad Flamingo, great to see. The party at e-Zone was nothing but fun. I always like the ‘whirlyball’ to get things.. whirly-ing. Thanks for having us there to photograph, it made my last weekend before the school year.

Max’s Bar Mitzvah: June 25, 2016 Rehearsal: 23 June / Friday night dinner: 24 June / Ceremony: 25 June / Party: 26 June So finally the day arrived for my nephew’s Bar Mitzvah. My family decided I was not to be the photographer for this celebration as I was going to be in some of the pictures, however I was able to shoot the rehearsal. As for the portraits and party, Ben and Gwen stepped up to the plate. Max was amazing. I have watched my nephew grow from a baby to a Bar Mitzvah. It’s not often one hears the ‘Voice of God’ during the bar mitzvah portion… but as anyone who was there can attest, we did. All speeches were eloquent and funny, Steve rose to the occasion nicely, and the weekend got off to a running start. Oh, another thing… it’s not often you see the bar mitzvah boy deflect projectile candy with a Captain America shield. There were many ‘firsts’ at this celebration. Selected Photos HERE.

Zach’s Bar Mitzvah: May 7, 2016 This was a fantastic rehearsal and party, these two boys were in fine form for both. Both pretty cool kids, I enjoyed photographing the family. The Factory is always a cool place for a party, the right amount of ‘street’ and ‘hip’, perfect for a rockin’ night. The ice cream truck was the proverbial ‘icing on the cake’.

Sequoia’s Bar Mitzvah: Sept 3rd, 2015 This was a fun Bar Mitzvah, I have known Sequoia since birth, so it was heartwarming to see him ‘become a man’ so to speak. The ceremony was interesting and different, and I would not have thought any other way for both Jeff and Marissa. Always good to see old friends in a Simcha mood. Looking forward to the next one.

Sophie’s Bat Mitzvah: Jan 30, 2016 All I can say is “Sophie is one very special young woman.” She brought a delightful energy and warmth to the function, and I feel so grateful to be a part of this simcha. Everyone in attendance would have to agree, that was one of the most memorable bat mitzvah speeches I have ever heard. Sophie was a joy to photograph. Barb and Heidi Gruenspan were super organized which made my job easy, and we got some fantastic shots. Thanks guys, I can’t wait for the next one.

Carly & Jory’s B’nai Mitzvah: 26th September 2015 I photographed the amazing B’nai Mitzvah of these two families on a warm day in late September in Forest Hill. I have known both these families for many years, and they are dear to my heart. The kids looked sharp, like a young couple (they are cousins, mind you). It was a fantastic party with Boris the Hypnotist providing much merriment and mirth. The long night of partying did not stop. Thanks for including me, guys. See you all soon.

Aliza’s Bat Mitzvah: 11th & 12th October, 2015 I photographed Aliza’s Bat Mitzvah and Family over the 11th & 12th of October, 2015. It was a super fun weekend at the family home, synagogue, and the eZone in Etobicoke. Aliza is a fantastic kid, great personality and smile. She was a pleasure to work with, and gave off great energy. The eZone is a pretty cool place to hang out if you are a teenager (or an adult); laser tag, basket ball, cosmic arcade, virtual golf, games, whiryball… just a fun place to be. Food at the house was yummy; crepes, all the sweet toppings, and the “can’t-go-wrong” Jewish bagels and lox, all were delicious. Overall, a perfect weekend with a delightful family. Mazal Tov guys. Enjoy the photos, they tell a beautiful story. All Photos Here Selected photos Scroll Below All Photos Here Jonni
