Max’s Bar Mitzvah in New York City

I became a New York Bat & Bar Mitzvah photographer in a very organic way. It all started with newborn photoshoots or family photoshoots when my clients had small children.

I build strong relationships with everyone I work with, and I often become their family photographer for years. When it’s time for the coming-of-age tradition of Mitzvah, they call me. I’m grateful I can photograph such an important celebration. From a reading of the Torah to a party with your community of friends and family in your child’s honor.

I photographed Max for the first time when he was two years old, and here I was photographing him at his Bar Mitzvah. I think I was as emotional as his parents. It is a privilege to be invited and trusted to come into people’s lives the way I was welcomed into this family.

Every Bar Mitzvah is different. People follow traditions on different levels. The ceremony might vary. There are rules in Temples that need to be followed. I make sure I know where I’m needed and allowed. As your Bar Mitzvah photographer I will deliver plenty of print-worthy family photographs.

And, as a New York documentary-style photographer, I make sure to capture all the fun that kids and grown-ups have during the party. Your gallery will be full of candid and joyful moments from that day. so you will have beautiful photos of this day to cherish forever.
