Alex's Bat Mitzvah - Full Scale Superstar

I'm thrilled to share this amazing collection of photographs from Alex's amazing Bat Mitzvah. Alex is no stranger to the stage as she's been in Applause's Theater shows almost her whole life. So when it came time to give her a solo in the spotlight and read from the Torah, she rose to the occasion and showed her friends and family what its like to truly be a superstar. Mazel Tov Alex - we are so proud of you!

Something Like Olivia! Bat Mitzvah at Three Sixty°

When you have the opportunity to photograph an entire Bat Mitzvah service, it's natural to feel blessed. The religious experience of reading from the Torah is at the very heart of a young 13 year old's Jewish rite of passage. Olivia performed not only one Haftorah, but two! She went to Israel to read from the Torah at the Western Wall in Jerusalem, and then came back home to the States and read an entirely NEW Haftorah portion at her own Temple. There is definitely nothing like Olivia - she is a true jewel. Dejuan Stroud designed the room at Three Sixty°, Total Entertainment rocked the party, Hart Pictures captured the video, Michael Jurick and team photographed the party and Melissa Rosenbloom and her Gourmet Adivisory team masterfully produced the event. John Mayer sings Olivia's theme song here.
