Over 25 years of experience 

​​
Over the past 25 years, we have photographed hundreds of Bar- and  Bat-Mitzvahs.  Each one genuinely unique and exciting. We take great pride in getting everything perfect and striving to surpass our clients’ expectations.



Your Bar Mitzvah is more than just a one-day event.  And so is our photography.  When you contract with us, we treat you the way we would like to be treated. 



Every Bar Mitzvah package contains three separate photography sittings (spread across several days).  These sittings are included in the package pricing.



Your Three Sittings:

First, several weeks prior to the event, we will travel to a location of your choosing – it could be a park or perhaps your home – for a casual portrait sitting with your family.  Of course, one of the goals of this sitting is to take great portraits, but more importantly—we want everyone to get better acquainted.  We want your son or daughter and the rest of your family to grow comfortable with us.  Jeans and casual attire are the style. These sittings are a lot of fun for the whole family.  It’s a chance for everyone to relax and get comfortable in front of the camera.  And when we say everyone, we mean everyone.  It’s not unusual for family pets (dogs, horses, cats, and once even a rooster) to get involved.  We will take several family portraits with lots of different poses. These photographs are often suitable as sign-in boards.  That same evening, I will post your photos to Facebook.

​

Second, generally the week of your Bar Mitzvah, we will travel to your Temple for formal photographs. Note, this sitting must be scheduled through your Temple.  Rarely, our availability can be an issue; so I encourage you to schedule the Temple sitting as soon as practical.  Here is a special opportunity to photograph your son or daughter in the temple. 

​

Third, on the day of the Bar Mitzvah but before activities begin, we will take formal portraits of your extended families.   Photos of the grandchildren with grandmother, individual families, extended families, etc, etc, etc.  These portraits are sure to become family heirlooms.



We are genuinely excited about your Bar Mitzvah.  We love to shoot photos, and we will take as many photographs as are needed to fully document your special day.  We don’t have an arbitrary limit or ceiling.  We will provide you a great number of photographs.

​

Also, we don’t sign off the clock after four or eight hours.  You have us at one price for the scheduled length of your event.
