Maya’s Bat Mitzvah: Oct 8, 2018 Maya’s bat mitzvah rehearsal and ceremony took place at the exquisite Beth Tzedec Synagogue in Toronto. The rehearsal with the family was fun; a beautiful warm summer afternoon with parents, grandparents, and siblings. The next week was followed up by a lovely ceremony in the morning followed by a rocking party through the lunch hour and well into the afternoon. Magen Boys threw down like no other with Morgan hosting MC duties and bringing this crowd of tweens to their feet. Maya was fantastic throughout the day, poised and graceful in her mitzvah delivery, and partying with her friends until everyone headed home. Mazel tov!!

Noah’s Bar Mitzvah Rehearsal: Oct 4, 2018 I met Noah and the family, the large family, at Beth Torah on Thursday afternoon. I love photographing at this synagogue, it’s bright and inviting, and the afternoon light is spectacular on the north end. Noah and his brother have plenty of energy as was evident with any downtime in photography. Definitely a loving and warm family, they all look like fun and games at home. We photographed everyone outside, grabbed the rest of the family and did our best against the wind. Back inside it was rehearsal time, what’s a couple of beautiful silhouettes, and back home to practice for Saturday’s simcha. Mazel tov, Guys!!

Noah’s Bar Mitzvah Rehearsal: Oct 3, 2018 We had a fantastic bar mitzvah rehearsal at Adath Israel on Wednesday evening. Noah and his brother were in fine form. Here’s one sharply dressed charismatic kid, who was able to pull off this photo session like a rockstar. The sun was going down, his golden locks were set ablaze metaphorically as we chilled outside the synagogue. Back inside, a quick rehearsal followed, and then we were off to photo land once again. Have a great time on Saturday, Mazel Tov. The Story of Noah’s Mitzvah Rehearsal: Selected Photos HERE All the Photos: HERE

Jonathan’s Bar Mitzvah: Sept 13, 2018 I was back in the Kehila Centre with this wonderful Argentinian family for Jonathan’s bar mitzvah last Thursday morning. What a fantastic day to photograph both inside and outside this synagogue. The Kehila Centre is such a large and inviting synagogue, beautiful from any direction. Jonathan was great, beaming from ear to ear while standing on the bimmah, reciting his portion, while his mom looked down from the balcony. What started out as a lovely ceremony, ended in the garden outside for some family photos. It was a wonderful way to spend a Thursday morning before heading into Sunday… …OK, let’s discuss Sunday, we were back at the Kehila Centre where these Argentinians really know how to party. We’re talking about dancing around crazy with arms waving in the air, people being thrown around just like you would see in a dance movie, the hora involved four people on chairs at the same time; just insanity from start to finish. Lucas from PURE Entertainment emceed this affair, as only he could (being Argentinian and all); Great party, fun people, amazing energy! Mazel Tov.

Jordan’s Bar Mitzvah: September 1, 2018 Jordan’s is one cool dude, just look at him dressed in them sweet threads, coy smile, styled hair, he does look pretty good. His bar mitzvah week (both family photoshoot and ceremony/lunch) was a fun way to start the season. We all met in Cedarvale Park earlier in the week and concluded at Le Parc on Saturday morning for the ceremony. Rabbi Mel presiding over festivities and held it together nicely. (I forgot how mellifluous Mel’s voice is, I have not seen him over the summer.) Back to Jordan… he was out of the gate and delivered his portion with grace and confidence. On a side note, this was the largest basket of candy thrown at a bar mitzvah boy in living memory. Lunch was delicious, as his sister Ashleigh held down the MC duties delightfully.

Dylan’s Bar Mitzvah: Aug 27, 2018 Dylan’s bar mitzvah was quite the event, taking place in the spectacular garden of his home overlooking Cedarvale Ravine. The morning rain gave way to a stellar albeit humid afternoon but then it cooled down to a lovely late summer evening. The crowd was ready for a party, even on this Monday night and this mitzvah delivered… and then some. Dylan was all in, we managed a photo shoot with the brothers, parents, and grandparents before everyone arrived and this garden was one easy place to photograph. We were treated to a special outdoor service by Rabbi Gantz from the Village Shul, followed by an delicious meal. By the time the clock struck 9, everyone was dancing up a storm treating this Monday as if it was a Saturday night. Good times, Mazel Tov.

Mia’s Bat Mitzvah: June 16, 2018 So Mia and her brother were basically the centre of everyone’s attention, obviously Mia more so being the bat mitzvah girl but you couldn’t look past her cute brother. This whole event was at the family home in Forest Hill, and these guys really know how to throw down a party. We started the day outside in the beautiful lush green garden taking photos of the family, then moved into the backyard where the ceremony was presided over by Moshe Saadon, and then the Magen Boys just raised the roof for the rest of the night. Mia is one very special and charismatic kid, based on the kind words from her friends and family, it is evident that she is going to go far. Mazel Tov, guys.

We met for the rehearsal at the City Shul where Rabbi Elyse Goldstein took Ray through his rehearsal. The boys, and there are three of them, were up for some of the photos outside and of course Ray was in fine form in front of the camera. We gathered for a party to a Toronto condo and spent a wonderful evening together with family. Mazel Tov guys!!!

Lucas’ Bar Mitzvah: May 26, 2018 Lucas’ bar mitzvah day was one fantastic ride. We started off with some photos at the house, Lucas and his three brothers just know how to work a photo shoot. Such fun. The whole family joined in and then it was off via a limo zine to the sports bar Wegz. Magen Boys were on board to kick things up a bit in addition to some fantastic games and not to mention the food. The whole evening was tied together beautifully by Gloria Benaim.

It’s always a pleasure to photograph a families one knows, especially one of your best friends kids whom you’ve known since the day he was born.

Cara’s Bat Mitzvah: May 12, 2018 So this is my second time around with this wonderful family, Ben and I photographed Jamie’s bar mitzvah two years ago, and I’ve been looking forward to this one ever since. Cara is a wonderful, delightful, special young woman. We had a rehearsal at Darchei Noam Synagogue with beautiful sunlight streaming in from the east, and then kicked off an amazing party at Magnolia a few days later. Bounce blasted this party to bits, and the lovely Sharlene Wilder (party planner) tied everything together seamlessly. The food was delicious, the speeches were warm and heartfelt, Cara looked stunning, and overall it was a fantastic party. Mazel Tov.
