Wedding photography is a complicated discipline that requires a lot of learning effort. Mastering different techniques often is not easy. We will treat the different elements of photography as the moment, the light and the composition with our particular vision. We will explain how to create images in difficult situations. We will apply all our knowledge acquired in recent years to create a photograph with your own identity. We want to discover the magic that you all carry.

Join Jay Goldman as he visually takes you through the significant moments of photography at a Bar Mitzvah. Your wedding-photographer skill set is perfectly adapted to these milestone events in a Jewish family’s life. They can be a lucrative addition to a slower wedding season and broaden your client base immensely. Goldman will teach you traditions and elements of the religious service and the flow of a Mitzvah reception.  Preparation brings confidence, which brings greater focus. Capture your version of the must-have album shots, being as creative and artistic as you want. Big albums sell, and large families hire again and again.
