We first met Brooke in Pacific Palisades at Temescal Canyon Gateway Park, one of our favorite hiking spots, to photograph her for the
Bat Mitzvah reception sign-in board. It was a magical spot with perfect lighting, and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. We then met up again a few weeks later for her
Pacific Palisades Bat Mitzvah at Kehillat Israel, our home away from home in 2011, our 6th visit of the year–with two more on the books in the coming months.
As always, lighting was amazing in the KI sanctuary and everything went perfectly–well, almost perfectly. There was a power outage moments before the service was to begin, but luckily KI had a generator they were able to drag into the sanctuary for amplification, and everyone got to hear Brooke and family without a hitch. And by the time the reception began in the social hall hours later, power was back to normal.
Sunday we participated in the Thanksgiving weekend tradition of family portraits for the Krantz family. We started this when their daughter was just 1 years old--now she's 6. We look forward to keeping this going for at least another 12 years. We met at Manhattan Beach early on a Sunday morning, which was crawling with photographers taking family portraits. Get those cards crackin' folks!
