Congratulations, they did it!

 

 

Your child's bar or bat mitzvah is such a special milestone, following years of hard work and growth. Now it's time for you to relax and enjoy the day, while I make sure all the smiles, hugs, laughter and dancing can be beautifully remembered.

We'll get the fun, exciting photos of the dancing and games, professionally lit family photos at the synagogue, your child reading the torah, photos of the service when permitted, whatever you need - I'll be there.

"She has the uncanny ability to be in exactly the right place where the moment is unfolding, and the aesthetic reflexes to frame beautifully! She is lovely to work with to boot. A rare gem."
