While I’ve been photographing Jewish weddings for years, this energetic mitzvah was the first I helped Chris Connor of 26 North Studios photograph, and it didn’t disappoint. The location was meaningful, the basketball and car theme was super fun, and the two brothers had a fabulous group of family and friends gather to celebrate their mitzvahs!

I joined Chris for the portrait time in the temple earlier that week. It was chilly outside, but we slipped out for a few photos that were fun and showed the boys’ personalities.
