Oliver’s Bar Mitzvah: April 9, 2022 This bar mitzvah was so much fun, the parents I have known for over 20 years, and it was so special to be included in the festivities. We all met at the Bayview Golf Club for an havdalah service presided over by the delightful Arlene Moshe. Oliver and I headed out for a little walk-about, taking photos as we strolled. One trip around the synagogue, and Oliver’s brother joined us for more photography adventures. Then the big family rolled up to wrap things up. We headed inside for a fantastic ceremony as Arlene always delivers. This was the mitzvah of the beautiful music, and it did not disappoint. Dinner was delish, and a chilled cocktail party where schmoozing was the main activity. Guys, the best. Mazel tov, Oliver.

A.J.’s Bar Mitzvah: January 27, 2022 A.J.’s bar mitzvah took place at the BAYT in Toronto, one very chilly morning in January. A.J. was totally up for the ceremonial festivities, the party was to come a few months later, but for now, we were all good to go. The morning minyan was also ready to celebrate, and celebrate they did. AJ read beautifully from the Torah and spoke with compassion and feelings. Once torah reading was out of the way, heartfelt speeches were to follow. A delicious take-home breakfast was handed out and then it was over… for now. We stayed for some family photos and to finally relax from the mornings hectic pace. Move on a few months, and it was party time. We all met at the York Mills Gallery for a wild Saturday night party. Bounce was on board to lay down some smokin’ tunes, dancers at the ready, this was going to be one wild party… and it began. First, while the sun still shining, we took family photos outdoors in the new courtyard. Then, inside we did go to schmooze before the hora and general party-ness began. Hora, speeches, dancing, tiny donuts, you can’t go […]

Micah’s Bar Mitzvah: March 24, 2022 So winter still had us in her grasp this morning at Beth Emeth, but that did not stop Micah and the family from some outdoor photos on his bar mitzvah day. We made a point of staying outside; wind, rain, or snow. Micah and I headed out for some fun photos before adding in the brothers, parents, and finally the entire family. Everyone did so well, even Michael Jackson wanna-be (you know who you are), before we headed inside for the ceremony. Beth Emeth is always such a bright and warm synagogue to photograph, love it. The ceremony was great, Micah was poised and gracious. We wrapped up and headed for a delicious brunch, a quick hora, and some laughs. Way to go guys, mazel tov.

We got some torah photos done before the big family joined in for some family photos. Overall, a great day for a rehearsal. Mazel Tov, guys.

Jesse’s Bar Mitzvah: December 4, 2021 Jesse was ready to go the morning of his bar mitzvah, we met in Yorkville at his grandparent’s apartment. This gave us nice access to the street where we photographed for quite some time. What can I say, these guys are just fun to hang out with. We laughed, we cried, we danced, just had a blast. Finally it was time to head upstairs, the rest of the family was waiting for us to gather. Mel Koenigsberg was on hand to run the show, as he does with enthusiasm and humour.

Gabe’s Bar Mitzvah: November 27, 2021 Gabe’s bar mitzvah was a two day deal, rehearsal on the front end, and a wicked party to wrap things up on the back end. We met at Adath Israel for a rehearsal; everyone in attendance of course. Gabe was great, very confident and eager. We photographed our Torah shots before adding in the rest of the family and grandparents. The party night was a different vibe. I joined in at the Havdallah service once shabbat was over. A few quick pictures of the family before everyone headed down to Album Studios for the party to end all parties. The Magen Boys were on hand to run festivities. The magic of Magic Mike held all the kids attention for quite a while before we all broke out into party land again. Great to see you all, mazel tov, Gabe.

Sidney’s Bar Mitzvah: November 11, 2021 This was a fantastic celebration at the Beth David Synagogue on a cold November morning. My second time around with this family could not have gone better, it really was so good to see them all again. Sid was in top form, as if he had been practicing for months (he had). We started outside with a few pictures before the weather ushered us in. We found refuge in a small corner of the synagogue for some family photos before the main event. Ok, now we’re inside the sanctuary, and I have to say, I love this room. Such a grand and expansive location to photograph. Once things got underway, there really was no stopping… torah readin’, candy throwin’, kids singin’, just full-gas to the end. We finally wrapped up and headed home for some delicious lunch and a few final pictures. Great day guys, mazel tov. The Story of Sidney’s Bar Mitzvah: Selected Photos HERE All the Photos: HERE

Sage’s Bat Mitzvah: November 6, 2021 I loved working with this family, I know them through my cousins but it was really nice to spend time with them on a personal level. We met at Habonim on a very chilly morning in November, the family ready to go. Sage was spectacular, her sister (well-versed in the modelling arts), fit right in, and finally when the parents when added to the mix, that was the icing on the cake. When we were done, the real bat mitzvah action was to begin. I love shooting at Habonim, one of my favourites, the space is bright and open, and lends itself to really capturing people. Sage read beautifully from the Torah, and delivered beautifully what she has been studying for months. Everyone was proud. Ceremony over, we headed into a delicious brunch. Speeches upon speeches, and each one heartfelt and warm. What a beautiful way to spend the morning. Mazal Tov, guys, so happy to have joined in.

Jonathan’s Bar Mitzvah: October 16, 2021 Photographed by: Jonni & Justine This was a two day event as it just had to be, we could not squeeze so much fun into one day. What started out as a rehearsal at Holy Blossom ended late one night at The Warehouse. So… this is how it all played out. I met up with Jonathan and the family on the bridge at Cedarvale Park, one of my fav locations to photograph in Toronto. We stayed a while before walking down into the ravine. We finally ended up at Holy Blossom, their new atrium bright and spacious. The traditional torah photos followed, and then we were done for the day. Fast-forward to the weekend where Justine took over photo duties at The Warehouse in Downsview Park. The party started with a bang… immediate and extended family in attendance for some photos before things started cooking. Hora, speeches, all around craziness well into the night.

Grace’s Bat Mitzvah: October 14, 2021 Grace’s big day was actually two days, and both were spectacular. The ceremony was held at Beth Torah, a beautiful and spacious synagogue in Toronto, one of my favourites. The spirited and enthusiastic Arlene Moshe was presiding. Grace was amazing; reading her portion with, dare I say, grace. It was a wonderful ceremony. We wrapped things up with a delicious lunch before the immediate family and I settled into some photo fun outside once everyone had departed. Fast forward two days, and we were in The Factory for a fun-filled Factory party. This was when things really started to get busy, Dave Monaco of the Magen Boys held down party duties, and everyone was on board. We had an amazing time well into the night.

Izzy and I walked around the neighbourhood, onto the Cedarvale bridge, the circle parkette outside the house, just strollin’ and shootin’. He looked pretty sharp, he did… but nothing could compare to those puffy pink earrings (you’ll see). Finally the whole family was ready, so we hit the bridge again before heading under-tent for the ceremony. Izzy was in fine form!! We wrapped with some family out front, and called it a day.

Josh’s Bar Mitzvah Rehearsal: October 7, 2021 This was a wonderful two days with Josh and his family, first at the rehearsal at the Family Shul, followed up by a photoshoot of the whole family back home. Josh was lookin’ good, as was his bro’. We started off outside the shul, just hanging out before heading inside to the torah. All done, we met again for some casual action at home the next day. Mazel Tov, guys, so much fun!

Milly & Alan’s B’nei Mitzvah Rehearsal: October 15, 2021 What started out as a lovely extended family rehearsal at Beth Sholom ended with Milly and Alan et al frolicking in Cedarvale Park, just beating the rain. Beth Sholom always offers up opportunity but nothing can beat the park in the fall. We sailed through the rehearsal, dressed down, and headed to Cedarvale. Fun times, guys. Mazel Tov!!
