First Wedding of the Season!

Ann & Kanishka were married Memorial Day weekend in her parents’ backyard. The garden was in full bloom, and the weather was amazingly cooperative! Here are some of my favorites from the day.

Daniel’s Bar Mitzvah

Thursday morning before work, I went to the Beth Jacob Synagogue in Mendota Heights to photograph Daniel’s Bar Mitzvah. Here’s Daniel putting on the tefillin before the service:

And here’s Daniel with his Grandfather, reading the Torah during the service:

After the service, we took some photos in the sanctuary where the Saturday service would be held:

Daniel and his family also posed for some quick portraits. Here he is with his proud parents:

Then on Saturday night, I got to shoot Daniel’s awesome casino-themed party. I’ll post those pictures as soon as I’ve had a chance to edit them!
