Olivia became a Bat Mitzvah on a Friday night, surround by family and close friends, and joined via Zoom by those who could not be there in person.
She celebrated with a lovely covid-friendly celebration outdoors, complete with string lights, masks, and hand-sanitizer, finishing off the evening with sweet treats from Cherry Smash!
The camera LOVES this girl! When we met for our Mock Mitzvah at B'nai Aviv, I was blown away with what an easy pleasure Eden is to photograph. Her spirit and personality jumps out into my camera and onto your screen.
This family gathered for portraits in synagogue, and again at the park. And when you choose a park where people bring their horses, you are dressed like a princess, and you ask nicely, they might just say yes and make those princess photo dreams come true!
The celebration was rounded out with a covid-friendly mobile selfie museum outdoor gathering with her friends at home. What a way to celebrate!
This family is beautiful and always a joy to photograph. Eliana has such poise and confidence and a beautiful voice to boot. Their mitzvah celebration may have looked a little different with covid and Zoom, but the spiritual moment of becoming a bat mitzvah was as genuine and meaningful as ever! Mazal tov on your simcha!
