To complement Chad’s bar mitzvah photos, his mom Marla and I set up a little shoot at their house to make sure their beloved dogs made it into the bar mitzvah album, too! Puppies Oliver, Max, and Pete were gorgeous and so sweet. Even my dog-fearing assistant husband thought little Ollie was adorable. Max is the fun-loving big brother type, and Pete is the senior in the crew… mostly chills off to the side, overseeing the hyper young ones.

We shockingly got all three dogs in one shot, albeit not posing perfectly (which I like better anyway) 🙂 – Here’s the whole crew:

Chad, Marla, Dana, and Seth

We had a gorgeously snowy, mild day, so we spent most of the time outside playing in the snow (and laughing really hard).

Pete didn’t feel like running around that day, but Oliver and Max had fun with Dana and Chad:

The dogs had so much fun (including Pete with his rest on the couch):

We brought Pete outside for a bit, but he wasn’t really into it. I love this shot, though. 🙂

One last photo of the cute brother and sister!

Thank you, Chad, Dana, Marla, Seth, and doggies for an awesome wintry shoot! It was too much fun!

The main reason for this trip to Cleveland in not-so-toasty February was to photograph Chad’s bar mitzvah this past weekend. (I’m loving the events lately – a New Year’s wedding in Boston, a Sarasota Sweet 16, and now the Cleveland bar mitzvah – such great times!)

Chad and his family were amazing – so welcoming, fun, and sweet… and when did 13-year-olds become so awesome?! They partied from early evening until late in the night, dancing up a storm (I especially loved the impromptu “Dougie” performance by three of Chad’s friends – someone please share a video) and celebrating with Chad.

Here’s a collage of some highlights:

Excited to photograph the family session over the weekend!
