Aliyah’s Bat Mitzvah: June 6, 2021 Photographed by Justine Aliyah’s Bat Mitzvah (which was due to happen June 20th, 2020,) finally was slated June 6th, 2021. Even during a pandemic, her Bat Mitzvah at Beth Torah Synagogue, turned out to be such a spectacular event. There was an outpouring of love and affection from relatives, friends and people as far away as Israel, California, Cincinnati, Florida, New York, and Nova Scotia. The people in the synagogue in person were: Aliyah, Rhonda, Michael, Aunt Katleen, Bubie Rosalie and Zaida Ray, and Aliyah’s good friend Sasha, along with the Rabbinet, Cantor and videographer. A video of Aliyah’s Uncle Darren reciting a moving prayer for Israel was inserted in the slide show. Another 150 people were watching Live Stream. Everyone said they were so thrilled to be a part of it. We featured a heartfelt slide show with music before (and after) the bat mitzvah showing Aliyah growing up (right from her baby naming to the present day) surrounded by loving family and friends. The silk flowers on the beama were donated to a charity for children on the autistic spectrum. Aliyah spoke so beautifully, and recited her parcha with grace, musical singing […]

Outside Adath Israel in the late afternoon is just looking for joy, as the light comes in through the trees. Yaniv was stellar at the torah (save for that COVID plexiglass; we did what we could), and outside, everyone just had a blast. The Drop-In post mitzvah was super cool. Yaniv’s parents have things so together. I showed up to get family photos, and then every 10 minutes like clockwork, families coming by photos. It was a beautiful thing.

Nate and I took a little stroll around the hood for some photo fun, before the grown-ups made their way out into the street. We found some shade in which to photograph, and dove right in. Every combination of Nathan and family was to be had. Once that was over, we packed up and headed to Holy Blossom for some real work. Inside, outside, on the steps, against the wall, in foyer, no area was left untouched. Finally, we ended up in the sanctuary for some actual rehearsal photos. Way to go guys, great job.

Josh & Karina’s B’nai Mitzvah: May 8, 2021 This was a wonderful way to spend a morning, and a pretty hot one at that. I met these guys at the family home near where I grew up in Thornhill. Josh came with me first for little walk around, getting familiar with the camera. I then took Karina for her photo shoot, different places, different spaces. Finally the family was ready and we all headed into the park for some fun. Back at the home, This ZOOM-mitzvah was pretty intimate; just the family and me, all in the living room, COVID protocols in place. This is the first time I’ve seen a green screen used at a Zoom-Mitzvah, the synagogue was projecting their own backdrop, who knew? Didn’t much help the photography, but that’s not what’s important now is it, it’s all about the family. These guys were great, bonding so well and having much fun. Mazel Tov, guys.

Jonah’s Bar Mitzvah: April 24, 2021 Jonah’s bar mitzvah took place at one of my favourite locations, Congregation Habonim. I love the space, it is both traditional and modern at the same time. The foyer is bright, there’s a fantastic courtyard outback, and the sanctuary is easy ingot a ever. Maybe it’s more modern than traditional now that I think about it. Jonah was fantastic, we did a little walk around the shul before heading inside, just to get some outside photos and because it was a stellar day. (Remember, it snowed a blizzard just 3 days ago). We headed into the courtyard with the grandparents and a few friends, all the while making Jonah the centre of attention. The ceremony went beautifully, with Jonah at the top of his game. We laughed, we cried, we candied, we ‘speeched’, we even did a little impromptu dance, all in all, it was a beautiful day. Mazel tov, guys.

Matti was in fine form for this morning’s mitzvah, we met at his grandparents house in Thornhill, (coincidently grandparents whom I’ve photographed numerous times already with other grandchildren), and off we did go around the neighbourhood on a little photographic journey. We picked up his brother on the way, a couple of parents, then the grandparents, and we were done with portraits. This celebration place on the deck under a gazebo, it was perfect. Who would’ve thought that three days ago, it was snowing like February in Canada, but today it was just beautiful. Matti was great; confident, poised, and engaging. He knocked this one out of the park. Guys, that was fun, so nice to see you all. Mazel Tov!!! The Story of Matti’s Bar Mitzvah: Selected Photos HERE All the Photos: HERE

Holden’s Bar Mitzvah: March 25, 2021 I was super psyched to see this family again, it was over two years since Holden’s sister’s bat mitzvah. This one was a ‘teeny-tiny’ bit different, but warm and loving all the same. I met the gang up at the family home for an early morning ZOOM-mitzvah. Apparently Holden grew up since our last adventure, he’s a strapping young lad now. We set off around the neighbourhood for a little photo-action before gathering the rest of the family for some ‘big’ family photos out back. It was then off to the races… and Holden held things down easily. This ceremony was full of love, laughter, hugs, and kisses… a beautiful thing. What followed was a delicious brunch, some toasting of the boy, and we were done. Way to go, Holden, Mazel tov.
