Jeremy’s Bar Mitzvah: Oct 1, 2016 Photographed by Ben What a larger than life party in a beautiful setting. The food was fantastic, the Megan Boys had the party going and the energy of the party goers didn’t let up the entire evening. With beaver tails, cotton candy, basketball and a mountain of cupcakes, I’m not sure anyone went home without a big smile on their face.

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’. Thanks for including Ben and me, we look forward to the next one.

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.
