I recently had the privilege of photographing Abbey’s Bat Mitzvah. It was a real pleasure, because Abbey is one of the most delightful young women I’ve photographed.  Mazel Tov, Abbey!

The following images are from Abbey’s Bat Mitvah party which was held at Nyack seaport, NY.
The candle-lighting …

The hectic party …

After the party, when the guests had left, I spent some time with Abbey taking a few more portraits.

And finally, Abbey and her mom, Susan, spending a quiet moment together on the bank of the Hudson River.
