Mazel Tov, Allison! Your Bat Mitzvah Is Here

Friends,

Allison is in for the weekend of her life. Her Bat Mitzvah is tomorrow, April 29, 2006 and it will be a blast!

Yesterday her family and I met in the sanctuary for some "posed" images on the Bimah with the Torah and their Rabbi (who is such a great guy: inviting and friendly to all the children and very supportive and loving to all the adults).

And we can't forget Grandma who was present as well. She'll be so supportive at tomorrow's service and Simcha.

Sam and Ben are great brothers and by the time we finished, I really felt they were comfortable with me and I knew some of their fun side. I can hardly wait to photograph them again tomorrow.

And Mom and Dad had some great ideas for photographs they wanted me to create. And when I could get Dad to put down his video camera (they'll all be glad that Dad brought it!), he looked great in the images.

These are not stiff, move your head a quarter of an inch and look up, type images. Not when I create them. These are "we are a loving family and we want our connections, love, and energy to shine forth" portraits!

In the sanctuary, near the chapel named for Dad's parents, and even outside with the dogwood trees in full bloom.

Wow... what a beautiful way to start off a celebration.

Mazel Tov, Allison. This is YOUR day to shine.
