Yoni’s Israeli Experience – Bar Mitzvah Photography Minneapolis

Yoni’s Bar Mitzvah celebration was quite the worldly experience, with a little slice of Israel to spice things up. Friends and family were greeted by a fun, Isreali-styled customs officials stamping their passports for their evening adventure. With passports in hand, Yoni’s guests got to challenge their knowledge of Israel at the Jeopardy booth, play Twister, and create their own friendship bracelets. The room was wonderfully decorated by Sandra at Your Sentimental Fool with American and Israeli flags and even the President was there for a diplomatic photo booth. Everyone enjoyed the Isreali swag they got at the trading post. The buffet was great and the Israeli dancing afterward was even better. Yoni and his family put on a great show and it made for a wonderful evening.

Max’s Morning – Bar Mitzvah Photographer Minneapolis

Spent a beautiful, late-summer morning with Max and his family photographing his Bar Mitzvah a few weeks ago.  The weather was perfect, so we started with a few fun photos out front of the synagogue and then headed inside to capture some portraits in the sanctuary.  Max and his brothers are great kids, fun to work with and that helped make for some great photos.  Once we wrapped up the portraits I headed up to the balcony to photograph the service.  Max did a wonderful job and with the morning light streaming through the windows it photographed beautifully.

When the service concluded, everyone hung around to enjoy a Kiddush brunch.  There was a huge buffet to enjoy, Rubik’s Cubes were handed out as gifts to Max’s friends (He’s a Rubik master form what I hear.) and I grabbed some more fun photos of family and friends.  It was a great morning to help Max celebrate this special event in his life.  Mazel Tov to him and his family.

 

Twice The Fun – Bar Mitzvah, Bat Mitzvah Photography Minneapolis

Evan and Sydney celebrated their Bar and Bat Mitzvah’s in grand style at Shelter Studio in north Minneapolis a few weeks ago. They started out the evening with a limo ride to the studio and after a few photos we headed inside where the kids got to check out all of the great decorations and stylings from Festivities. The place was looking great, Ross and his crew from A-List Entertainment were on the scene and once the guests arrived it was party time. With the grand entrance of Evan and Sydney, everyone was on the dance floor shaking it down and having a great time. Get Flipped was in the studio doing a photo booth and with a couple different buffet stations everyone could find something great to eat. Friends and family alike had a great time. It was a wonderful evening that was full of action and made for great photos. We always love that.

Ethan – Bar Mitzvah Portraits Minneapolis

A few of my favorite photos from Ethan’s Bar Mitzvah portrait session.  Enjoy.

Rock’in out with Ethan – Bar Mitzvah Photography Minneapolis Minnesota

The Whole is fun, intimate club with a First Avenue vibe, in Coffman Union at the University of Minnesota.  Combine that with Ethan’s love for music and it turned out to be a great venue to host Ethan’s Bar Mitzvah party a few weeks ago.  It was a wonderful, laid-back event with great food and desserts for everyone to help themselves to, at anytime.

Friends and family could then kick back on the couches in the lounge area or get down on the dance floor.  Ross and his DJ crew from A-List, kept the music flowing for dancing and few games, including a fun limbo competition.  Ethan’s mom and her friends really started showing their dance floor moves later in the party, which was a lot of fun.

Mazal Tov! to Ethan and his family.  It was a great gig, at a fun, new venue and we got lots of wonderful photos.  Check out the video and hit this link to see all the great photo from Ethan’s Bar Mitzvah.
