Through the Sherwood Family, I had the opportunity to meet a great family from Westport, CT.

After holding the formal ceremony in Israel months prior, Jennifer and David did a great job of putting together a beachside party in celebration of their daughter, Emily's, bat mitzvah. It was a casual, colorful affair with friends and family gathering at Penfield Beach in Fairfield, CT. From the beach themed decorations, to the candy table, fabulous party dancers and more, it was a party not to be missed.

We started out the afternoon with some beachside family portraits and then it was party time.

[Quick disclaimer: 

Though they are extremely fun and touching, I am not looking to build a business around weddings, mitzvahs or baptisms.  I am interested in going in new directions professionally/creatively.  This particular page is here because there were some really great candid moments captured; they were a really fun and beautiful family, and I felt the images deserved to be shared. ]
