Mazel-tov Max!

On June 5th, while I was in Boston photographing a wedding, Sandra went to Southbury to photograph Max's bat mitzvah. I have known Max's parents for several years now after photographing his sisters bar mitzvah and the whole family is just such wonderful people, and I'm sorry I missed it! Sandra did a great job and looks like everyone had a blast! Here are some great ones...

D & K- Sorry again I wasn't there for your last one! Looks like everyone had a blast. Hope to see you soon! Happy Birthday Max!

Happy Birthday- Melissa & Jessica

On May 15th, Jessica and Melissa celebrated their barmitzvah. The day started out at the temple where we did some formal photos and then after the ceremony they ended up on a boat in NYC where the party continued all night long. The girls, the family, everything was perfect and such a beautiful day for a special occasion... Here are some of my favs

Debbie- Your family is wonderful, a joy to work with and I hope you all had a blast on your special day!

11-7-09 Barmitzvah

On November 7th I photographed "D" and "B's" special day. Although these 2 aren't twins, they share their birthdays close enough that they decided they would have a joint party, and what a hit it was! How wonderful that even as teenagers they are able and willing to share this event with one another!?! The day was awesome, it started after the service with a luncheon at the temple, followed by family photos and then that night we went to the Palace Theater in Waterbury for the party... it was an absolute blast! Here are some favs:

Suzanne- there wasn't anything that you didn't have covered, everyone seemed to have had a blast! You can see the slide shows here and all the photos. Enjoy!

Josh's Barmitzvah

On Saturday, I had the opportunity to photograph Josh's barmitzvah. I shot his sister Elana's batmitzvah 2 years ago and had a great time, this was no different. It's amazing how quickly kids grow up, which makes me sound old, but really look at difference in 2 years! What a great looking family! The event took place at the Saybrook Point Innwhere friends and family gathered together and had an awesome time. To see more of Josh's day click here.
