Rachel's Bat Mitzvah was simply "outrachous"! She celebrated it in fantastic style at Temple Dor Dorim, surrounded by her family and really close friends, all of them absolutely happy to be a part of this important milestone in the Fleischman's lives... The evening was a non-stop dancing event, led by David and his incredible Pure Energy crew, a guarantee of a great party. The staff from Palm Caterers was also impeccable, taking care of all the little details as always. Mazel Tov, Rachel, for a very well done job!

I had a fantastic time photographing Helaina last week, and I can only hope she had as much fun as I did... It's really rare to see such intensity and expression in a girl her age, and all I can say is that she has a beautiful journey ahead of her. Keep on going, Helaina, you're a true star!

| Mitzvahs

Macenna had an incredible time this past Saturday: it was her Bat Mitzvah, a milestone in her life, and it was celebrated accordingly for sure. Her service at Temple Israel was simply beautiful, with Macenna performing impeccably. In the evening, it was party time at the Alexander Hotel, in Miami Beach, where her guests and family were introduced to "Club Mac". My good friend Joseph, from Pure Energy, was responsible for keeping everyone dancing, and he surely delivered! Mazel Tov, Macenna and Melinda, it was an honor to have been there for both of you.

Dear Ricardo: From the moment we met you at Temple Israel, you exuded calmness and genuine enjoyment in what you do. The pictures are beyond beautiful, and the montage of beach photos was incredible. You are a truly gifted gentleman, and I am grateful Melinda was able to use someone of your extraordinary talents. The memories you have preserved for us are invaluable. And the company you suggested for Macenna's party was equally professional. I am very glad you were part of Macenna's celebration, and thank you for your professionalism and your truly amazing artistic gift. Best wishes to you.

Nicole had a fantastic time at her Bat Mitzvah, and so did her guests for both the Sunday evening party at Weston Hills Country Club and the service and luncheon at Temple B'nai Aviv on Monday morning. The party was a non-stop dancing event, with my friend Alberto from Pure Energy keeping everyone on the dance floor throughout the evening. Nicole had an amazing time celebrating with some of her best friends, and the evening went on without a glitch. The Monday morning service was simply beautiful, and performed extremely well - and had fun at it too! Mazel Tov to Nicole and her great family!

Cristina and Sean got married this past weekend at the Palms Hotel, in Miami Beach, and just as they had imagined it, the day went on simply perfect: amazing weather, a simple and beautiful ceremony setup on the white sands - with an unexpected butterfly release at the end of it - and then an evening of much fun and joy with family and close friends. Everybody had a fantastic time and the dance floor was crowded during the whole night, Cristina and Sean included. Congratulations to this wonderful couple, it was truly a pleasure to have been part of their special day...

| Mitzvahs

Cole was Bar Mitzvah'd this past Saturday at Temple Dor Dorim, and I'm pretty sure he won't be able to forget the emotions of that fantastic day... It all started with a perfect service in the morning, followed by a luncheon to all the guests. The party in the evening was also unforgettable: Cole went recently to a safari in Tanzania and came back absolutely thrilled with the experience, so it was Safari Time and everybody enjoyed an incredible night in the jungle. David and the Pure Energy crew made sure nobody stopped dancing during the whole evening, and Ruben was in charge of videotaping every little detail. The Wintons are a great family and became new and welcomed friends, and I couldn't have been happier to photograph this fantastic moment for them. Really well done, Cole!

Teri:

Ricardo,
How can we possibly thank you for giving life and color (or black and white when its absolutley perfect) to our memories of that day and night? Everything goes by so quickly, but your photographs are an everlasting reminder of the love, fun, excitement and other emotions that we all felt at Cole's Bar Mitzvah. You are a true artist! I love these pictures and cannot wait to see the rest.
