A child’s bar or bat mitzvah is a defining moment in their life. As they stand on the bimah, reading from the Torah and Haftorah with celebration to follow, they and their family will feel immense pride as they come of age within the Jewish faith. During these important celebrations, professional bar and bat mitzvah photography will capture the important moments so you can focus on being in the moment. Shana Sureck Photography approaches bar and bat mitzvah photography from a photojournalist’s perspective, capturing candid moments and emotions to make them last a lifetime.
A child’s bar or bat mitzvah is a meaningful spiritual time in their young life. Adulthood in the Jewish community comes with many new responsibilities, but it is also an immense privilege worthy of celebration. After your child spends the year preparing for this special event, they will have the honor of performing sacred rituals and reading from the Torah as they accept their new responsibility of living according to Jewish Law. Then, celebration ensues as all celebrate the child’s official coming of age. Candy is thrown, tears are shed, special words between parents and children are spoken. There’s pride and kvelling, limbo and sushi, and then family and friends dance the night away in celebration.
Bar and bat mitzvah photography is meant to capture all of the once-in-a-lifetime moments during the celebration. This way, family and friends can focus on celebrating and being in the moment without worrying about documenting the experience.
As a photographer, Shana has the rare and magical ability to make everyone at a B'nai Miitzvah feel worthy of leaning in toward their own delicious moment in the light of celebration. With laser sharp attention and precision, Shana's camera is both omnipresent and invisible. Shana's mitzvah photography captures everything--the sweetness, the poignance, and the raucousness of a simcha--without leaving a finger print behind. She is a joy to work with, able to literally bring out the best in each of her shining subjects who will be forever preserved by her artful eye.
