I had the honor of photographing the Bar Mitzvah party of Ben, the son of my friends, photographers Jeffrey Vock and Wendy Setzer, on Dec. 4, 2010, at the Hoboken Elks Lodge in Hoboken, NJ. Here are a few images from that fun night. Mazel tov, Ben!
From Wendy:
Hello Reena,
YOU ROCK! I love your pictures.
You captured the crazy, zanyness of 13 year olds. AND you captured the crazy, zanyness of those 50 somethings! Getting the Elk heads in there added to the Jewish celebration (Ha). I just love the shots of Ben and friends doing crazy stuff. One shot has our friends Jorge and David dancing like crazy with the Elk overhead. I call it the ‘Animals Going Wild’ shot. You also got beautiful pictures of our family like no one else.
THANKS SO MUCH for doing such a “bang up” job. I’ll treasure these photos forever!
From Jeffrey:
I finally had time to load in those photos and look. They are really fantastic! I don’t know where the hell I was because I didn’t see any of that stuff going on on the dance floor. Thank you so much for doing such a great job.
Jeffrey is an amazing wedding photographer and one of my mentors. You can view his work on his website, Jeffrey Vock Photography.
