The bar/bat mitzvah is a tradition-rich ceremony that marks an individual’s transition to adulthood ? it is the time at which a boy or girl is viewed as a responsible adult member of the
Jewish community. A great deal of study, planning, preparation ? and typically, much money?goes into ensuring that everything goes smoothly on this memorable, milestone day.
Because of the religious and societal import of the event, most families hire a photographer to document the goings on, from the preparations, to the details, to the big celebration that
follows. In order to successfully capture and deliver heirloom images for clients, photographers must be familiar with the key components of the ceremony and celebration and must know what
the family expects to see in the images.
Author/award-winning photographer Booray Perry (Tampa, FL) has achieved renown, locally and nationally, for his ability to capture storytelling and classic/traditional images of the student,
the progression of the ceremonial events, and the people who have nurtured him or her throughout this life-changing journey. Perry offers technical and artistic insights and key ceremonial
information to prepare photographers to create stunning, highly salable images their clients will cherish for generations to come.
