CSAIR Bar Mitzvah:  Nathan H.

CSAIR Bar Mitzvah: Nathan H.

I’ve been getting a bunch of requests lately for Bar Mitzvah photography which jolted my brain to remember this Bar Mitzvah I photographed late last year that I had been meaning to post.

I met Barbara – Nathan’s mom a while ago through our involvement with Riverdale Rising Stars.  She  asked if I would photograph the family formals for Nathan’s Bar Mitzvah being held at the Conservative Synagogue  Adath Israel of Riverdale.  CSAIR for short!  I was there months earlier photographing another Bar Mitzvah.

Nathan was fortunate enough to have extended family fly in to be with him on this special day.  I was there while  Nathan and the Rabbi practiced his speech for the following day.   You can tell how proud he was of his heritage – especially of his Opa – Grandpa in Dutch.  Yes, I learned a new word that day!

In April I’ll be attending a Bat Mitzvah as a guest.  Which reminds me – I need to send in the response card!  Off to the mailbox I go!

Have  a great weekend!

    Great shots! I love how you always seem to capture the feeling of love in the family. I especially like the shot of him sitting flanked by his sisters/cousins. Great work Stacy.
