On the rare occasion that my schedule permits me to shoot something besides weddings, I love having the opportunity to work with special people like The Jacobs Family! I had the privilege of connecting with them for the Nashville B’nai Mitzvah of first cousins, Matthew & Ian, both such INCREDIBLE kids!! These two amazing families are so kind, gracious and know how to throw a spectacular party! The ceremony was held at The Temple, followed by the celebration at The Hutton Hotel. I’m pretty sure this was Nashville’s Mitzvah of the Year! Mazel Tov, Camp Jacobs, for allowing me to be a part of such a fun & special day! Be sure to check out the slideshow too!

A big thanks to coordinator extraordinaire, Jayne Bubis, for doing such a wonderful job putting this event together, and Goldie Shepard for catering such an AMAZING feast. It’s always a pleasure to work with both of you!

It’s not often that I get the opportunity to photograph a Nashville Bar Mitzvah, so it was a special treat to be a part of Brandon’s big day. The ceremony was held at The Temple, followed by a rockin’ celebration at Hillwood Country Club! Thanks, Levy Family, for being such a great family to work with, and allowing me to take part in such a special occasion! Mazel Tov!

Brandon is such a cool kid with an incredibly bright future ahead of him!

Once again, a big thanks to Jayne Bubis for planning & coordinating this fun day. And Goldie Shepard & her incredible catering team! Always great to work with these two amazing ladies!

I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph the Bat Mitzvah of the super sweet & cool, Becky Leibowitz! A beautiful ceremony was held at Congregation Micah, and the incredible celebration continued at Hillwood Country Club. It was such an amazing day with a great family & fun friends!

We set up the Party Booth and let the kids have some fun!

The beautiful woman of the hour, Becky!

I had the rare opportunity to shoot during the ceremony because Congregation Micah has glass walls!

My favorite shot of mom & dad watching Becky during her reading.

I just love this moment.

A big thanks to the Leibowitz family for allowing me to be a part of such a special day!
