shoshana’s bat mitzvah :: topanga community club, topanga, ca

I had the absolute pleasure of being involved in Shoshana’s Bat Mitzvah.  After meeting this lovely lady, I was shocked to find out she was only 13.  She has such class, politeness and not to mention is STUNNING!

It’s no wonder where she gets her looks huh? This is one good looking family.

Not only are they a good looking family, they are also very sincere and kind.  Shoshana’s brother made her this Yad for her to read the Torah with.  He carved it himself.

Shoshana’s Tallit was made in Isreael special just for her.  It’s one of a kind.

Shoshana’s parents both had the sweetest things to say to her.  It was very touching.

Time to party!  The room was simply beautiful!

After a few speeches from Shoshana’s closest family and friends it was time to eat.  The food was out of this world amazing.  Seriously.

Then time to party!!

And here I thought keeping up with a bunch of teenagers would be a challenge but their grandparents sure can dance!

And of course, what Bat Mitzvah would be complete without dessert?!  Most of these delectable little cakes were baked by Feed Your Soul Cakes.  And the red velvet cupcakes were crafted by Susie’s Cakes.  Seriously.. yum!

Shoshana and her mom.  All together now… Awww.

They even had a Fuji Polaroid camera going.  It was pretty rad.

If this doesn’t explain how awesome and amazing this family was.. toward the end of the night Shoshana’s mom asked me to take a photo of myself because she wanted one of me too.  :)  Of course I asked Shoshana to be in it with me and she happily obliged.  I feel so lucky to have been involved in this event.  Shoshana has the most beautiful life ahead of her and I can’t wait to see what she does with it.
