When Isaiah’s Mom asked if there were any special pictures that he wanted on his Bar Mitzvah day, he had a pretty simple answer. He wanted to make sure I got pictures of him leading the service with his Rabbi. Not pictures of his rocking party, or his best friends, or him looking cool (which I took, of course), but pictures of what the day is really about – growing in Judaism and celebrating his accomplishments. How great is that?

 

PS. He did marvelously that morning!

 

Of course, he also had a rocking party held at Bella Luna in Jamaica Plain.
