Soldiers of Israel Fundraising Gala Dinner: October 18th, 2009

Bernard & I had the wonderful opportunity to give back to the Jewish Community by volunteering in giving our photography services to the Soldiers of Israel Fundraising Gala Dinner that took place at the Embassy Grand Convention Centre in Brampton.

It was an absolutely wonderful evening! It was very touching to hear from the soldiers who are in actual service for the Israeli Army and the hardships and struggles they continuously go through and fight for in the name and freedom of their country. Yet, it was also very encouraging to hear how the generosity of those who are able to help, in so many different ways, was making such an impact in the lives of these young soldiers!

We were extremely touched to have received this letter from the Soldiers of Israel commity thanking us for our services:

We felt very honoured to have been chosen to photograph such a significant event that is sure to touch many lives all over the world!

Below are just some of our favourite shots from the event. Hope you enjoy!

Yaakov Morgenstern & Ruti Rrhochman: October 15th, 2009

Yaakov & Ruti's wedding was so special! We had an awesome time photographing them and their families! They are such a good looking couple, (don't worry, ALL of our clients are beautiful!)and they look so good together! =p
The wedding was held at the BAYT synagogue and my parents at Heavenly Flowers did the floral and decor artwork -everything looked stunningly beautiful!!
It was so much fun to photograph these guys- you should have seen Ruti throw her actual bouquet in the air for her sisters to catch! It was awesome!! I even caught the shot with the bouquet in mid-air too! HAHA!!=p
But I must say that my favourite shots are at the end when we did some sweet night shots at the end of the night in front of the Shull! So make sure you watch the slideshow all the way to the end! They look sooo good!! (Not the pictures though, the couple! LOL!)
Anyway, hope you enjoy viewing the pictures below! =p

Avishai Gasner: September 7th, 2009

First of all, I just want to say that I think Avishai's name is so neat! He has a great name!
Secondly, Bernard & I had a ton of fun with him and his family during his Bar Mitzvah! On the Sunday, the day before his actual Bar Mitzvah, we went to a really cool little park that we have never been to before. We love going to new and different places because it gives us the opportunity to be creative and see things differently and get awesome angles!
We had a great time photographing Avishai and his family there at the park -it was the perfect day too! The sun was streaming through the leaves on the trees and giving off that warm glow -it was fantastic!
Then the next day, we were at the BAYT Synagogue bright and early in the morning for his actual reading of the Torah. Avishai did an awesome job!
His parents and siblings were extremely proud of him! It was so neat for us to be there to witness and catch those special moments for them.
Mazel Tov Avishai! You did your parents proud! =p
