Dresher Bat Mitzvah | Clara

2016 has turned into the year that I reconnected with a record number of high school and college friends!  A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of celebrating Clara's Bat Mitzvah!  (Clara's mom and I were sorority sisters at Lehigh University.)

The evening's theme was "Pajama Party", and it was so much fun!!  The decorations included larger-than-life lamps, and the dinner selection included pancakes!  When it was suggested that I could wear pajamas, there's no way I was going to refuse!!  I purchased my pajamas from a company recommended by Clara's mom, Deb - Punjammies, by Sudara.  If you haven't heard of the company, go check it out!  Their clothing is super comfy and cute, and it helps fund a great cause!!

I had such a great time hanging out with Clara, her mom and dad, and her two brothers!!  Big thanks to the super talented and kindhearted Sharon Wai for second shooting for me!  Mazel tov, Clara!

Conshohocken Vow Renewal | Raji + Sujal

Sujal reached out to me after we met at Niva's Sweet 16 party.  He wanted to surprise his wife, Raji, with a vow renewal ceremony to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary.  Fast forward a few months, and he pulled off his surprise perfectly!  Some of their closest loved ones joined them as he proposed, she accepted, and they got married all over again.  I'm so glad that I was there to experience it all!  This was the first time I witnessed a Hindu religious ceremony (a Puja), and I was captivated by all of the beautiful colors, textures, smells, and sounds!  Oh, I can't forget to mention the absolutely incredible Indian food that was served!  I'm so thankful for all of the wonderful people I have been able to meet through my photography.  Here is just a small collection out of the many photos that I captured that day.

Spring Hollow Golf Club | Niva's Sweet 16

Back in March, I had the pleasure of photographing Niva's Sweet 16 celebration!  I have photographed Niva and her family a few times now, and after spending time with her it's easy to see why she is so loved!  Her family and friends really know how to throw a party!  Here are a few photos from the festivities that took place at the Spring Hollow Golf Club.
