Shira's Bat Mitzvah

Today, was a little different paced for me. I had the great honor to photo document Shira's Bat Mitzvah. I'm told her name means "song" in Hebrew. Anyway, her mom is a cantorial soloist and Shira did a great job herself. Rather than being held in a temple, the ceremony was at Carnivale (BTW, check out their website. It is one of the best I've seen in a while). We started upstairs and then we moved into another room for the party. It was truely a unique event and the food was great. If you need a location for a rehersal dinner (or even a wedding), I would recommend this place!


From the outside, it does not look too big, but looks are deceiving!


The religious service was held upstairs. All of the rooms are painted similar to this!


These were the fried banannas and cheese. Wow, did they taste good!


Chocolate desert. Do I need to say anything?
