He's a Jazzman: Max's Musical Bar Mitzvah Celebration

Here's more from Max's musical Bar Mitzvah celebration: the jazzman blowing away on his baritone sax in his very own backyard.


Max's parents threw the simcha at their home, where Max performed with the hot Richard Bernard and his Oy Stars, a jazzy Klezmer combo with horns, bass, drums and guitar. He did a lot more than just sit in with the band. He held his own, improvised solos, kept up with the band, and proved himself to be one musical prodigy. And sax isn't his only instrument. He had us in awe at another Bar Mitzvah, playing some amazing ragtime piano.


Max: keep rockin'!

There was one photo of my daughter and the DJ, MC, dancers, and some of her friends that captured the joy and happiness we all felt during the Bat Mitzvah, now we have wonderful memories captured in the best photo's and we can relive those memories over and over, along with the memories of having the best photographer in town!
Pros: Prompt, fast service, friendly, patient, warm, happy

Leo Baeck Temple Bar Mitzvah | American Jewish University

It was our first time at American Jewish University on Mulholland for Elliot's Bar Mitzvah. The family belongs to Leo Baeck, which is under construction remodeling for a year, so Bar Mitzvahs are being held, for the time being, in the retro chapel at AJU. We got the killer shot of Elliot and his siblings outside on the patio, directly across from the chapel.

Later that night, master party planner Nina Bracker staged the hippest, contemporary iPod-themed i-celebration for Elliot at Michael's in Santa Monica. Elliot is having fun in front of some of the really cool lighting effects Nina posted in and around the restaurant patio.
