Erin's Bat Mitzvah - {Tampa Bay Bat Mitzvah Photographer}

I was so happy to be a part of Erin's Bat Mitzvah celebration the weekend before last.  I'm finishing up the party images, but in the meantime wanted to share a couple from the Synagogue  You did a great job Erin!  Congratulations!

Erin - {Tampa Bay Portrait Photographer}

Meet Erin!  I first met Erin last summer when I had the privilege of photographing her sister Samantha's Bat Mitzvah (check it out here and here!)   Next week it's Erin's turn and I am looking forward to documenting this important event for her.

I must say she looked as beautiful as she is on the inside when we got together for her mini portrait session as part of her Bat Mitzvah celebration!

Congratulations Erin!

Ben's Bar Mitzvah Portraits - {Tampa's Mitzvah Photographer}

I had the privilege of photographing Ben's Bar Mitzvah celebration the weekend before at Congregation Beth AM .  This is such a special event for Ben and his family, that I was honored to be able to document the occasion.  Here are some family portraits taken in the morning before his Bar Mitzvah.  Later in the week, I'll share some party images from the celebration that followed!

Congratulations Ben!

Samantha's Bat Mitzvah - Part 2 {Tampa Bay Event Photographer}

As promised more photos from Samantha's Hollywood themed Bat Mitzvah!  

The star of the evening arrived in silver screen style!

In true Hollywood style, everyone got a chance to walk the red carpet!

A generations dance challenge!

A themed picture spot is always a fun addition to any party.

Samantha's Bat Mitzvah - Part 1 {Tampa Bay Event Photographer}

In my last post, I introduced you to Samantha.   She celebrated her Bat Mitzvah this past weekend with a Hollywood theme.   Rose Antonini from A & E Events did an amazing job as always transforming the space into a glamorous Hollywood event!  Rob Vollmar with Grant Hemond and Associates, Inc, provided the entertainment and Lynne's Catering served up some delicious eats!  I'll post more pictures from the evening soon, but in the meantime, here's a look at the beautiful setting...

A make your own ice cream sundae station!  Yum!

What Hollywood event is complete without a red carpet!

And the Oscar goes to....Well Samantha of course!

Are these napkin folds not the coolest?!

A fun spot for photos!
