Why Should You Hire Me?

I understand how important your child’s bar or bat mitzvah is to you. My children's mitzvahs were two of the most joyous and meaningful days of my life. I’ll do everything possible to ensure you are able to take the greatest pleasure in your celebration.

I promise that no photographer will work harder for you and your family. I'll be completely attentive to you throughout the entire process. I'll always be available to you, even on nights and weekends a year away from the big day. I'll be happy to answer questions or offer advice.

During your mitzvah party, you’ll rarely see me sit down. I'll blend seamlessly into the party, dressed like a guest and always observing and anticipating. Most likely you'll find that you don’t really notice me at all, except when you're wishing I was there to capture something. And at that moment, I’ll be right there, because I noticed what was happening and made my way over to you.

I'll always strive to make things lighthearted, easy and fun. Planning and hosting a bar/bat mitzvah can be stressful and I'm eager to help minimize any difficulties that arise along the way. Whether grandparents show up late for family portraits, someone forgot the tallit at home, the weather’s not cooperating or the spot you wanted to use for pre-party portraits isn’t available, it won’t matter. I’ll be there for you and will handle whatever comes up. We’ll still make beautiful, emotional, dramatic pictures that will make you feel the love and joy that you felt on your child's mitzvah day.

Don't just take my word for it. See what some of my clients have to say about working with me.

Services

My photographic specialties include bar mitzvahs, bat mitzvahs, business portraits and headshots, corporate photography, family portraits and weddings.

Bar/Bat Mitzvahs

My wife and I have gone through the experience of making a bar mitzvah and then a bat mitzvah four years later. I’ve been in your shoes and I understand what you may be thinking and feeling. I️ get it.

I understand that you want everyone you work with on your child’s bat/bar mitzvah to be responsive, helpful, professional and dedicated to providing you and your family with spectacular client service that anticipates your needs and makes everything easy, fun and stress-free.

As your photographer I'll be completely dedicated to creating an incredible experience for your family - to adding to the enjoyment of your entire mitzvah weekend- and to creating heartbreakingly beautiful images of your family.

I hope to create photographs that bring tears to your eyes. I'll go well beyond the expected and obvious photos to capture expressions, gestures and moments of interaction that you never noticed.

And of course I'll create beautifully lit, gorgeous posed family portraits worthy of your mantelpiece - and grandma’s coffee table.

I'll disappear into the crowd at the party - you may not even notice me very much - but I'll always seem to be there at just the right moment.

Business Portraits

Perceptions are reality. You need to take advantage of the opportunity to make a great impression and professional quality business portraits will help you do that.

Whether you're a business owner, attorney, physician or other professional, you can't let the world's first impression of you be an iPhone picture of your face cropped out of a photo booth picture from the last wedding you attended.

Our portrait session will be l relaxed and low-key and I'll create photographs that will make you look and feel great.

Family Portraits

I'm definitely not the photographer to call for a family portrait where everyone is wearing matching outfits and they're posed and retouched to within an inch of their lives.

During a children's or family portrait shoot, I aim to let my subjects have fun and interact with each other, while I capture their expressions, gestures and the sweet, funny and tender moments that unfold.

My photographs help you relive important moments in your family's life and remember what you felt when the image was created.
