Congregation Ner Tamid Bar Mitzvah | Palos Verdes Photographer

We spent a fabulous recent Friday afternoon at Congregation Ner Tamid in Rancho Palos Verdes with Matthew and his family. CNT welcomes the family for rehearsal and portrait photos on Friday--then we meet up with everyone the next night at the reception. For Matthew, it was a return to the Los Verdes Golf Course, where his sister had her party two years earlier. We will follow up with photos from the Los Verdes Golf Course reception in our next post.

Palos Verdes Congregation Ner Tamid Bar Mitzvah | Joshua

Here's Joshua and his great-looking family from this weekend's Palos Verdes Bar Mitzvah up on the hill at Congregation Ner Tamid. Ner Tamid doesn't allow photography during the service, so these images were taken Friday afternoon at the "rehearsal."
We returned the next day for the party, where Dad, a stereo photography enthusiast, had the kids in the palm of his hands hen he did something we've never, ever seen at a Bar Mitzvah party. David handed out 3-D glasses to all to watch the incredibly creative, very unique and highly entertaining video montage.
Pictures from the party will be posted later in the week. Photos 1, 3, 4 and 9 by Sam, the others by Jeff.
