Gil Piwko's Bar Mitzvah: December 15th, 2007

A couple of days after Ben's Bar Mitzvah, we photographed Gil Piwko's Bar Mitzvah. We photographed Gil and his family a couple of days before the party and the rest of the photos were taken at the party. And what a party it was - I've never seen so many crazy shitck and dancing performances done all in one event! Those boys certainly know how to party. We had a fun time and here are a couple of our favourite shots from the two days:

Ben Barak's Bar Mitzvah: December 9th, 2007

We had such a fun time photographing Ben Barak's Bar Mitzvah! He has a lovely & caring family. Ben is a very talented young man -he played his guitar at the reception instead of saying a speech, and I must say that his playing ability spoke for itself! He did a fantastic job.

Here are some of our favourite shots:

Shmuel Sompolinsky & Sara Alon: November 28th, 2007

Bernard & I had the awesome priviledge of photographing Shmuel & Sara's wedding at Bais Yaakov School in North York. They were a great couple to work with -very sweet! We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the event!
I have made a slideshow of their wedding, so just click on their photo and it will take you to the show. Enjoy!

Yitzi Weiss & Libby Rosenberg: November 20th, 2007

Well then! I got so excited that I had thought I had begun to get caught up with all of the postings of events when I suddenly realized I had skipped a wedding I really wanted to post that Bernard & I had photographed on November 20th -just five days before these Bat Mitzvahs!!

Okay, so without further ado, here it is...I've put it into a slideshow, so just click on their photo and it will take you to it. I think it was worth the wait!...

Keshet Eklove's Bat Mitzvah: November 25th, 2007

Yes, November was certainly a crazy month for us filled with several Weddings, Bat Mitzvahs & Engagements! But we can't complain -infact we do enjoy every opportunity we are given to take part in and document such special and endearing moments in people's lives -this was the case with Keshet Eklove.
The following day after Leora's party, for the first time I headed up north to this beautiful indoor garden in Newmarket called Madsens of Newmarket. Amazing! What a beautiful place!!
Of course, the place could not forgo the enthusiasm of one young Miss Keshet who lit up the place with her smile! It was definately a fun filled day of excitement that none of us are bound to forget.
Here are some of my favourite shots:

Leora Newman's Bat Mitzvah: November 24th, 2007

Leora is such a sweet young lady and adorable to photograph! She has such a fun and enthusiastic family that we all had a blast doing her portraits and family portraits a couple of days before the big event!


Her locks of blonde hair and sparkling green eyes flashed of excitement before my camera lens. I certainly hope to have portrayed these bursts of exuberance and anticipation for the big party in the following of the not-so-easy to choose from selections of portraits I have chosen!

A big Mazel Tov to Leora on her job well done on her speech and for a fantastic night of fun!

Menachem & Lindsay's Engagement - November 11th, 2007

Now this was a neat place where Bernard & I photographed Menachem Salmon's & Lindsay Herskovits' engagement. Because the weather is no longer the warmest by November and finding trees with leaves still on them nearly impossible, we opted for an indoor garden. The place we found is called Allan Gardens and is located in downtown Toronto. Now, to tell you the truth, this was our first time at this place but you know what? We had an awesome time discovering the beautiful & different scenery as they unfolded before us as we walked through this indoor garden -Wow! It was unbelievable! You'd never think it was bitting cold outside!!
So here are a few of our favourite shots:
