We had a small but very meaningful service at the Dix Hills Jewish Center, in Dix Hills, NY. It was so moving to be at this synagogue celebrating these sacred traditional moments.

A few months later I had a blast photographing this lively, colorful, and exciting Bar Mitzvah at the iconic Crest Hollow Country Club, in Woodbury NY. I also loved walking around with the family on Crest Hollow's beautiful grounds which has such picturesque places to photograph! It was so great seeing everyone dance from little kids to older adults!!

Here was her review: Elana photographed my son’s Bar Mitzvah, both at the synagogue at Dix Hills Jewish Center (2/2022), and at the party at Crest Hollow Country Club (6/2022). She was amazing both times, arriving early, super prepared, and friendly/ easy to work with. She is an incredibly talented photographer and her work is really high quality and impressive. Elana was always accessible and ready with her camera throughout the service and party. She captured everyone we asked for and more. I highly recommend Elana for any kind of party/event you want to keep memories of. I am very grateful that we used her!
