As both of us come from Jewish backgrounds, we have a deep understanding of the meaning and rituals of a bar or bat mitzvah. We know that the occasion is a celebration not only for the bar/bat mitzvah, but also for their parents who will “kvel” that they have successfully raised a successful son or daughter.
Our style has always been rooted in documentary, and we like to include live sound from the service. When the synagogue or temple doesn’t permit us to film the actual service.
we may ask our mitzvah families to record blessings, torah readings, speeches, at another time, often during the rehearsal. That way we make the bar/bat mitzvah service the main event, and the party a gala celebration.
We’ve also done custom montages to be shown at the party and are happy to entertain any creative ideas you may Have!
Jump ahead a few decades, and the bar/bat mitzvah video will have captured a precious moment in time.
