Daniel & Zoe's Bnei Mitzvah
On Thursday, April 28, 2022, I had the honor of photographing the B’nei Mitzvah of twins Daniel and Zoe at Solel Congregation in Mississauga. It was a lovely spring afternoon, perfect for taking photos outdoors.
I started the session by taking shots of Daniel, then Zoe, then both kids together. We worked outdoors, using a variety of settings to capture the perfect shots. We took photos on benches, amongst the trees, and against brick walls, playing with the natural light and textures to create beautiful images.
One of my favorite parts of the session was photographing the twins together. Watching them interact and joke around with each other - capturing their bonding moments - was truly special.
As the session went on, it was clear that the twins were having fun, and I was so glad to be a part of their celebration.
After the photo sessions with Daniel and Zoe, I worked with the immediate family. The parents’ love for their kids was palpable, and I really enjoyed taking shots of the family holding hands and walking together outdoors. Action shots are a wonderful way to get the family nice and relaxed.
Next, we brought in the grandparents for extended family photos. It was heartwarming to see the joy and excitement of three generations together in one place. The grandparents were so thrilled to be a part of the celebration, and their joy was contagious.
We then moved into the main sanctuary for shots of Daniel and Zoe reading Torah. It was amazing to see them both standing tall and confident as they recited their Dvar Torahs. The grandparents looked on with pride as their children and grandchildren celebrated this milestone. As I snapped away, I couldn't help but feel honoured to be part of such a special moment.
I am grateful to have been a part of the twins’ simcha and to have captured such special memories. Mazal Tov Daniel, Zoe, and family!

I had the pleasure of photographing Ezra for his Bar Mitzvah. Working with him again brought back special memories of his intimate Covid simcha.
