I had been looking forward to Corey and Kali’s B’nai Mitzvah for almost a year now. Commonly known as a ‘Coming-of-Age’ ceremony, a Bar or Bat Mitzvah marks a time in one’s life in which they become a Jewish adult.

Working with Orange Counties newest Event Planning team of Once Upon A Mitzvah,  Nicole Chaness and Sharon Gall from Once upon a time weddings was amazing!
One of my favorite parts about this event was the photoshoots we had done prior to the big day of Corey and his “Rockstar” inspired on location photoshoot and Kali and her High Fashion studio photoshoot , I really got to know Corey and Kali personally and was so proud of them for completing such a huge step in their lives.

With Sharon’s help Nicole planned what turned out to be  one heck of a Mitzvah for Corey and Kali complete with Airbrush tattoo artists, professional dancers, photo booths, a caricature artist, cake pops and so much more!

Kali looking stunning before the service.

Corey and Kali and their fabulous family.

One of my highlights was to see my work hanging in one of Laguna Beach’s best galleries, and one of my favorite places for weddings and events Seven Degrees in Laguna Beach Nicole had huge canvases of my photos of Corey and Kali made to decorate the gallery walls.
