Mazal Tov on your Bat Mitzvah Linley!

Bnai Mitzvah parties are frequently events unlike any other in their lives to that point that you do not always know if who you are seeing is who they “really” are. Photographing Linley I saw a young woman who cares deeply about her close friends, family, and even those she had only just met. I saw confidence and concern about other’s well being on a day ostensibly all about her. Congratulations!

Mazal Tov on your Bat Mitzvah Rena!

Such a beautiful rendition of your parsha and poise.

You had a wonderful party and I thank you for having me be a part of it. Please enjoy these few photos from your Chizuk Amuno bat mitzvah.


Mazal Tov Nina!

Yours is the fourth mitzvah at which I have photographed you. Starting with your sister Emily’s six years ago. It has been a pleasure being a part of so many special occasions for you and your family.

One of the best part of photographing bnai mitzvah is getting to see how much little kids turn into young adults in no time at all. Next up, college. Mazal tov again on your tremendous success.
